The present book, Cariyāpiṭaka, belongs to the Pāḷi Tipiṭaka, the authorized recension for the Theravāda Buddhism. Keeping in line with the Indian inclinations, Cariyāpiṭaka was the first attempt at creating a biography of Lord Buddha – not a biography dealing with physical and mundane matters of this life but a biography stretching in to time immemorial to understand and enumerate the qualities that Lord Buddha developed over a period of 100,000 eons and four incalculables – a period beyond reckoning. Cariyāpiṭaka was meant as a guide for those interested in developing ...

Drawn from the sacred books of Buddhism, this collection reveals the insights and beliefs at the heart of the world’s fourth-largest religion. Siddhartha Guatama, a sixth-century Hindu warrior prince, renounced the world in his search for the meaning of life and became the Buddha, or “Enlightened One,” while meditating at Bodh Gaya. From that moment forward the Buddha sought to share his own enlightenment with all of mankind.

Something that is not created by you is either created by god or this nature. Have you ever thought about the eight-fold path that lord Buddha gave you? What is that for? The noble people gave you the eight-fold path; is it meaningful; does it work; does it have advantage; or importance in your life; how much importance do you give to it. Worth giving importance or not; will this eightfold path protect you from the corona virus; adopting it; following it; will restore humanity in society; in country; across the globe. Will it protect you from the corona virus; restoring humanity; following ...

No, it is not all in your head: life is stressful, and some lives more so than others. Yet people react to the same situations differently, and recognizing the difference between what we can control and what we can’t is crucial for stress management - and it is an awakening in and of itself.

The Sutra of 42 Chapters is a scripture complied in the first century CE. Each saying comes from Buddha, but the whole work was a new anthology created especially for introducing Buddhism in a new country. That’s why it makes such a good, basic introduction to the world view of Gautam Buddha.

This is not a book. This is a disappearance. You will not finish this book the same as when you started. Because this is not a book about learning. This is not a book about improving. This is not even a book about awakening. This is a book about erasing everything you think you are. Your name. Your past. Your identity. Your beliefs. Your self. Gone. Not because you “transcended” anything. Not because you “became enlightened.” But because there was never anything to erase. Everything you’ve ever been searching for? Everything you’ve ever thought you needed? It was already here. ...

From the moment of his birth, Siddhartha Gautama never doubted his specialness. He arrived with magnificently webbed digits and could lick his own earlobes. His karma had been that good. Thus, the question was never whether he would become a king, but rather, what type of king he would become. Siddhartha's journey took a sudden spiritual turn when he came to the first of his many realizations: things die, and before they die, they suffer, a lot, for real.

As it turns out, Buddha had quite a lot to say on the subject of gratitude, including citing it as one of the four keys to the Gate of Heaven. Studies show - and experts counsel - that gratitude is a key component of our happiness. People who are grateful about events and experiences from the past, who celebrate triumphs instead of focusing on losses or disappointments, tend to be more satisfied. Gratitude can help us transform our fears into courage, our anger into forgiveness, our isolation into belonging, and another’s pain into healing.

Ideal for anyone who is Buddhism-curious, The Buddha in You offers an accessible introduction to the key teachings of Buddhism.

“To be a buddha is not a difficult job. It is not some achievement for which you need a Nobel Prize”. Commenting on anecdotes and haikus by the Zen masters, Osho explains that being a buddha is the easiest thing in the world - it has already happened without you knowing. The empty heart, a place beyond thoughts and feelings, is within everyone. Meditation, and becoming truly thoughtless, is the key. Osho presents Zen as potent, alive, and relevant to the modern world.

Skylar had it all - riches, success, and fame - until he traded it all for Enlightenment. Skylar Seequn enters the wrought-iron gates of an Ivy League university, where he meets a handsome, rich fellow straight out of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel, an architecture major who sports a Robin Hood cap, and a brilliant political science student who writes an entire thesis at one sitting. As he hitchhikes to Florida, Skylar is threatened at gunpoint by a redneck, and preached to by an insane, would-be Jesus. Backdropping the action is the rock and roll music of the early 70s. Remembering Eternity:...

“It is very difficult for a beginner to understand that the goal to which he aspires is closer to him than the blood in his own veins; it is, in truth, within him and in the present. It is enough for him to consecrate himself with extreme sincerity to his spiritual practices to join with the Sublime within him; nevertheless, even if he has succeeded in reaching It, that does not mean that he will subsequently be able to remain united with It.” In this last work, Edward Salim Michael exhorts us with infinite compassion to consecrate ourselves to the only thing that counts and that can ...
