Download or read book Chronicles of Dhamma written by S.N. Goenka and published by Pariyatti. This book was released on 2016-08 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of articles from the Vipassana Newsletter provides unique insights into the history of Vipassana meditation as taught by S. N. Goenka from the time he left Burma in 1969 to go to India until the present. The newsletters also provide a vehicle to present the teachings of the Buddha, and encourage students as to how Vipassana can be integrated into everyday life. The articles are divided into five general categories. The first is "Vipassana Teachings," starting with the Buddha's first discourse. The second is "Messenger of Dhamma," which follows Goenkaji through milestones of his years of teaching. The third is "In the Footsteps of the Buddha," which first focuses on pilgrimages through India and into Myanmar and also covers later journeys into North America and Europe. The fourth is "Applied Dhamma," reflecting on the use of Vipassana in prisons, addiction, at the World Economic Forum, and with students and young people. It also includes Mr. Goenka's encouragement to students from the first newsletter in 1974. The fifth is "The Spread of Dhamma," focusing on development. Overall, the articles show an ancient teaching that has taken on new life and is changing the lives of many for the better.

Book Synopsis Spreading the Dhamma by : Daniel Veidlinger
Download or read book Spreading the Dhamma written by Daniel Veidlinger and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2006-08-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did early Buddhists actually encounter the seminal texts of their religion? What were the attitudes held by monks and laypeople toward the written and oral Pali traditions? In this pioneering work, Daniel Veidlinger explores these questions in the context of the northern Thai kingdom of Lan Na. Drawing on a vast array of sources, including indigenous chronicles, reports by foreign visitors, inscriptions, and palm-leaf manuscripts, he traces the role of written Buddhist texts in the predominantly oral milieu of northern Thailand from the fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries. Veidlinger examines how the written word was assimilated into existing Buddhist and monastic practice in the region, considering the use of manuscripts for textual study and recitation as well as the place of writing in the cultic and ritual life of the faithful. He shows how manuscripts fit into the economy, describes how they were made and stored, and highlights the understudied issue of the "cult of the book" in Theravâda Buddhism. Looking at the wider Theravâda world, Veidlinger argues that manuscripts in Burma and Sri Lanka played a more central role in the preservation and dissemination of Buddhist texts. By offering a detailed examination of the motivations driving those who sponsored manuscript production, this study draws attention to the vital role played by forest-dwelling monastic orders introduced from Sri Lanka in the development of Lan Na’s written Pali heritage. It also considers the rivalry between those monks who wished to preserve the older oral tradition and monks, rulers, and laypeople who supported the expansion of the new medium of writing.

Book Synopsis River of Memory by : Lama Jampa Thaye
Download or read book River of Memory written by Lama Jampa Thaye and published by Rabsel Editions. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The memories, dreams and reflections of a modern lama born in the West who became heir to the traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. River of Memory: Dharma Chronicles tells the remarkable story of the scholar and meditation master Lama Jampa Thaye &– one of the first fully authorised masters of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition born and brought up in the West. Lama Jampa recounts his beginnings as a boy born in a Catholic family in the northwest of England, from his first encounters with Buddhism and glimpses of the nature of reality, to receiving private teachings from some of the greatest Tibetan masters of the 20thcentury, and ultimately becoming an authorised master of the Sakya and Karma Kagyu Traditions, establishing Buddhist centres and groups around the world and working tirelessly to spread the life-changing teachings of the Buddha to thousands of students worldwide. River of Memory provides an extraordinary series of snapshots of the time for Buddhism in the West, chronicling the first visits of Tibetan masters in the late twentieth century, giving a vivid picture of the condition of Buddhism in the modern world, whether North America, Europe or Asia, and reflecting on the ongoing interaction of Buddhism and Western culture. Accounts such as this are extremely important to the preservation of the purity of the Buddhist tradition as they enable students to verify the authenticity of a teacher's qualifications and so develop confidence.
Book Synopsis The Moneyya Chronicles by : Bhikkhu Moneyya
Download or read book The Moneyya Chronicles written by Bhikkhu Moneyya and published by Damick Publications. This book was released on 2023-02-27 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Moneyya Chronicles” begins at a time when the drums of the Vietnam War were beating loudly on America’s shores, creating fear and confusion in the hearts of those who were soon to attain manhood. Through the mediums of poetry, prose and painting, Bhikkhu Moneyya explores questions that arose as a natural consequence of the times and describes the path that he chose to answer them, first as a freewheeling traveler, later as an ashram resident and finally as a Theravada Buddhist monk. Transcending the social and political dialectics of daily life, this is a journey of the mind and heart that will rouse, entertain and ultimately beckon the reader onto a path laid out some 2600 years ago, in a land where a good friend was more than just a friend but one who could help a seeker open his eyes to the hidden truth within.

Book Synopsis Relics, Ritual, and Representation in Buddhism by : Kevin Trainor
Download or read book Relics, Ritual, and Representation in Buddhism written by Kevin Trainor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-06-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a serious study of relic veneration among South Asian Buddhists. Drawing on textual sources and archaeological evidence from India and Sri Lanka, including material rarely examined in the West, it looks specifically at the practice of relic veneration in the Sri Lankan Theravada Buddhist tradition. The author portrays relic veneration as a technology of remembrance and representation which makes present the Buddha of the past for living Buddhists. By analysing the abstract ideas, emotional orientation and ritual behaviour centred on the Buddha's material remains, he contributes to the 'rematerializing' of Buddhism which is currently under way among Western scholars. This book is an excellent introduction to Buddhist relics. It is well written and accessible and will be read by scholars and serious students of Buddhism and religious studies for years to come.
