Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this modern digital age where huge demands are being made on people, the search to cope and find meaning to what we do daily is a challenge. This book connects the learnings of the ancient Thai martial art of Muay Thai into how we can leverage on them in an infinitely demanding digital world. This book is partly in response to failure of leaders in managing these demands and in the end resulting in poor employee engagement, lack of motivation and poorer mental and physical health. What Muay Thai teaches is as relevant now as it was centuries ago.

Book Synopsis Engaged Buddhism by : Christopher S. Queen
Download or read book Engaged Buddhism written by Christopher S. Queen and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1996-03-14 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive study of socially and politically engaged Buddhism in the lands of its origin. Nine accounts of contemporary movements in India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tibet, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Japan are framed by interpretive essays. The historical development and institutional forms of engaged Buddhism are considered in the light of traditional Buddhist conceptions of morality, interdependence, and liberation; and Western ideas of freedom, human rights, and democracy. Since the fiery self-immolation of the Vietnamese monk Thich Quang Duc on a Saigon street in 1963, "engaged Buddhism" has spread throughout Asia and the West. Twice in recent years the Nobel Prize for peace was awarded to Buddhists for their efforts to free their compatriots from totalitarian regimes. Engaged Buddhism presents ordained and lay Buddhist activists like Thich Nhat Hanh of Vietnam, Buddhadasa Bhikkhu and Sulak Sivaraksa of Thailand, A. T. Ariyaratne and the Sarvodaya Shramadana movement of Sri Lanka, Daisaku Ikeda and the Soka Gakkai movement of Japan, followers of the Indian Untouchable leader, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, and Buddhist women throughout Asia. These leaders have campaigned relentlessly, attracted and organized millions of new converts, faced death threats, landed in jail, founded schools and universities, and produced a massive new Buddhist literature to restore social and economic justice to their societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Asian education systems discourage or even ban the use of L1 in L2 classrooms – although in fact L1 remains widely used by teachers.

By observing classes and interviewing teachers, this book explores three dimensions of L1 use in L2 teaching: • pedagogy: what teachers actually do, and what they say about it • the personal: what happens to identity when we ‘perform’ a foreign tongue • the professional: how textbooks are used, and what is distinctive about the EFL domain.
