Book excerpt: Drawing on a deep knowledge of Christian scripture as well as Hindu philosophy, musician and teacher Russill Paul reveals that the mystical core of religion offers us much more than the simple solace of unthinking dogma. By demonstrating that these two seemingly separate and irreconcilable religions can actually unite in one person’s spiritual practice at the center of his life — as they did in his — he offers an alternative to religious intolerance and strife, as well as hope for personal liberation.

Book Synopsis Introduction to the Lotus Sutra by : Yoshiro Tamura
Download or read book Introduction to the Lotus Sutra written by Yoshiro Tamura and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lotus Sutra--one of the most popular Buddhist classics--is here accessibly introduced by one of its most eminent scholars. "Soon after entering university in December of 1943, I was sent to the front as a student soldier. I wondered if I were allowed to bring but a single book on the trip, possibly to my death, which would I want to bring. It was the Lotus Sutra" -- from the author's Preface. Having developed a lifelong appreciation of the Lotus Sutra -- even carrying a dog-eared copy with him through service in World War II -- Yoshiro Tamura sought to author an introduction to this beloved work of Buddhist literature. Tamura wanted it to be different than other basic explorations of the text; his introduction would be plain-spoken, relevant and sensitive to modern concerns, and well-informed by contemporary scholarship. He succeeded marvelously with Introduction to the Lotus Sutra, which Gene Reeves -- Tamura's student and translator of the popular English edition of The Lotus Sutra -- translates and introduces in English for the first time here. Tackling issues of authenticity in the so-called "words of Buddha," the influence of culture and history on the development of the Lotus Sutra, and the sutra's role in Japanese life, Introduction to the Lotus Sutra grounds this ancient work of literature in the real, workaday world, revealing its continued appeal across the ages.

Download or read book The Secret of Secrets written by Osho and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 1012 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taoist teachings on life and existence—presented by one of the best-known and provocative spiritual teachers of our time In this unique series of discourses, Osho unravels The Secret of the Golden Flowers, an ancient text that he describes as the essence of Taoism. It is the core of all religions and spiritual paths, belonging to no one and belonging to all. More than 2,500 years old, this remarkable text continues to be as relevant today as it was to its contemporaries. Osho demystifies the important terms used by the Chinese mystic Lu Tsu, or Lao Tzu, and shares his meditation exercises. He also outlines the qualities of animus and anima—our male and female energies—as delineated by Lu Tsu, explaining the importance of their relationships inside each of us. He also provides many valuable techniques and gives specific instructions on the Taoist Golden Light Meditation, which involves harmonizing the male and female elements and transmuting sexual energy. A timeless collection of Osho’s talks on The Secret of the Golden Flower, this book will show you how to not remain a seed but to become what the Chinese called ‘a golden flower.’ Called the ‘one thousand-petaled lotus’ in India, the golden flower is a symbol that represents perfection, totality. It represents the actualization of potential—the beauty, the grandeur, and the splendor of being.
Book Synopsis The Sage and the Lotus by : Jeremy Bowler
Download or read book The Sage and the Lotus written by Jeremy Bowler and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows that we have a mind and a body and that those two parts of life work together. Yet science has no adequate theory to explain the connection. At the heart of this difficulty is the Mind-Body problem, which is as much to do with the way we understand reality as with the scientific understanding of our bodies. This book discusses the problem and presents a solution to it based on the teaching of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the Sage of the title. For over 50 years, Maharishi expounded a new and detailed understanding of consciousness taken from the Vedic Tradition of ancient India. He applied it to life in the modern world with great success. In that understanding both mind and body are two expressed parts of a more universal, underlying wholeness of life which can be brought to the level of direct experience through Transcendental Meditation. Opening one''s awareness to that inner reality is called Self-realisation. Expanding that inner wholeness into activity in the world creates Enlightened living. Both topics are discussed in the book in relation to the Mind-Body problem and to Maharishi''s teaching. The book also uses the symbol of the Lotus on the Lake to connect individual consciousness with the universal value of Being that underpins it. This image, adapted from Laya Yoga, beautifully expresses the relationship between individual life and the cosmic value of wholeness. It is a poetic and yet technical description of the structure of individual consciousness. Part one starts with the polarisation of world views illustrated by science and religion and the difficulty this creates for a shared understanding of reality that includes all aspects of human experience. Those aspects include the physical, the mental, the social and cultural, and the spiritual. Science only tells us accurately about the physical. Religion deals with the spiritual, yet, for many, religion has become a matter of blind belief leading to actions that can sometimes seem destructive to life itself. The Mind-Body problem is introduced in terms of these difficulties and in relation to Dualism, Materialism and Idealism. Part two describes Maharishi Vedic Science as a theory of wholeness in which consciousness is primary. The theory is explained in some detail and then extended to show how three interacting modes of consciousness are required to create physical forms, worlds of shared experience and the appearance of matter. They are the cosmic mode, the individual mode and the collective mode. Part Three returns to the Mind-Body problem and shows that it does not exist in Maharishi Vedic Science. Difficulties arise only if we take a limited viewpoint in which wholeness is missing. Mind and body go together, but they are both expressions of a deeper reality in which wholeness is all. This does not have to be left to faith. It is open to experience through a process of spiritual development. The techniques of Yoga, properly understood and applied and exemplified in Maharishi''s system of Transcendental Meditation, are designed to promote the experience of wholeness. The need for a paradigm shift and the conditions required for creating that shift are discussed. A Five Worlds Framework for human experience is proposed, to help develop holistic approaches in every area of practical life. Different cultural and spiritual traditions can use the framework to make their own contributions. The symbol of the Lotus on the Lake is presented and explained. Part four gives three examples of how Maharishi Vedic Science can be applied to practical life: spiritual development which can power a global paradigm shift, education which develops the mind, and medicine which maintains the health of the body. Some final points to ponder are given, including comments on life after death and re-incarnation. An Appendix outlines Maharishi''s teaching on the Seven States of Consciousness. Full references are given.
Download or read book Truth Be Known written by Jananivasa dasa and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It is said that truth is stranger than fiction but this opinion is due only to incomplete knowledge. Relative to the eternal spiritual reality, nothing is stranger than a world whose people are uneducated in conclusive spiritual truth. Lacking the qualifications required for reception of perfect knowledge, most people of this world are totally oblivious to the nature of spiritual subject matters, much less have they a clue of the identity of God. Spiritual understanding is lacking because the object of understanding is unknown. Indeed, most people of this illusory world would not know the Supreme Spiritual Person even if He were standing before them. It is instructed by the Vedic authority that the first qualification for reception of perfect spiritual truth and knowledge is simply to admit our bewildered condition. Because it is only the Absolute Truth who can save this world from certain destruction, this book was written to give people a chance to see what they do not know. References from the Vedic scriptures are provided as proof but the real fool proof approach to Absolute Spiritual Truth is to receive the knowledge directly from the Vedas. It is due to divine design that the Eternal Spiritual Reality has until now, until this dawning age of enlightenment, remained unknown to the conditioned residents of this criminal world. As instructed in the “Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ”; “There are many mysteries in Christ consciousness, but there are no mysteries in God consciousness.”

Book Synopsis The Feminine Principle in the Sikh Vision of the Transcendent by : Nikky-Guninder Kaur Singh
Download or read book The Feminine Principle in the Sikh Vision of the Transcendent written by Nikky-Guninder Kaur Singh and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-09-24 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a critical analysis of Sikh literature from a feminist perspective. It begins with Guru Nanak's vision of Transcendent Reality and concludes with the mystical journey of Rani Raj Kaur, the heroine of a modern Punjabi epic. The eight chapters of the book approach the Sikh vision of the Transcendent from historical, scriptural, symbolic, mythological, romantic, existential, ethical and mystical perspectives. Each of these discloses the centrality of the woman, and show convincingly that Sikh Gurus and poets did not want the feminine principle to serve merely as a figure of speech or literary device; it was intended rather to pervade the whole life of the Sikhs. The present work bolsters the claim that literary symbols should be translated into social and political realities, and in so doing puts a valuable feminist interpretation on a religious tradition which has remained relatively unexplored in scholarly literature.

Book Synopsis Srimad-Bhagavatam, Tenth Canto by : His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Download or read book Srimad-Bhagavatam, Tenth Canto written by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and published by The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust. This book was released on 1977-12-31 with total page 4082 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Srimad-Bhagavatam, an epic philosophical and literary classic, holds a prominent position in India's voluminous written wisdom. The timeless wisdom of India is expressed in the Vedas, ancient Sanskrit texts that touches upon all fields of human knowledge. Originally preserved through oral tradition, the Vedas were first put into writing by Srila Vyasadeva, the "literary incarnation of God." After compiling the Vedas, Srila Vyasadeva was inspired by his spiritual master to present their profound essence in the form of Srimad-Bhagavatam. Known as "the ripened fruit of the tree of Vedic literature," Srimad-Bhagavatam is the most complete and authoritative exposition of Vedic knowledge. After writing the Bhagavatam, Vyasa taught it to his son, Shukadeva Goswami, who later spoke the Bhagavatam to Maharaja Parikshit in an assembly of sages on the bank of the sacred Ganges River. Although Maharaja Parikshit was a great rajarshi (saintly king) and the emperor of the world, when he received notice of his death seven days in advance, he renounced his entire kingdom and retired to the bank of the Ganges to seek spiritual enlightenment. The questions of King Parikshit and Shukadeva Goswami's illuminating answers, concerning everything from the nature of the self to the origin of the universe, are the basis of Srimad-Bhagavatam. This edition of Bhagavatam is the only complete English translation with an elaborate and scholarly commentary, and it is the first edition widely available to the English-reading public. This work is the product of the scholarly and devotional effort of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the world's most distinguished teacher of Indian religious and philosophical thought. His Sanskrit scholarship and intimate familiarity with Vedic culture combine to reveal to the West a magnificent exposition of this important classic.
