  • Lovingkindness
    Lovingkindness

    $13.46

    Document Overview:
    Throughout our lives we long to love ourselves more deeply and find a greater sense of connection with others. Our fear of intimacy-both with others and with ourselves-creates feelings of pain and longing. But these feelings can also awaken in us the desire for freedom and the willingness to take up the spiritual path.In this inspiring book, Sharon Salzberg, one of America's leading spiritual teachers, shows us how the Buddhist path of lovingkindness can help us discover the radiant, joyful heart within each of us. This practice of lovingkindness is revolutionary because it has the power to radically change our lives, helping us cultivate true happiness in ourselves and genuine compassion for others. The Buddha described the nature of such a spiritual path as "the liberation of the heart, which is love." The author draws on simple Buddhist teachings, wisdom stories from various traditions, guided meditation practices, and her own experience from twenty-five years of practice and teaching to illustrate how each one of us can cultivate love, compassion, joy, and equanimity-the four "heavenly abodes" of traditional Buddhism.

    Document Overview:
    Ninguno de nosotros merece lo que Dios nos ofrece: una vida libre de pecado y la esperanza de un futuro glorioso. Pero, aunque parezca increible, todo esto se nos sirve en bandeja. ?Por que? Por la gracia de Dios, por su favor inmerecido y el amor y la amabilidad que nos brinda profusamente y nos viene brindando desde la Creacion. Pero, si podemos acceder a esto tan facilmente, ?por que vivimos una vida carente de gracia? ?Por que nuestras iglesias estan llenas de cristianos desilusionados, cansados de las exigencias de la religion, que luchan contra sus derrotas personales ocasionadas por sus propios problemas o comportamientos?Acompana al pastor Andy Stanley a medida que sigue el recorrido de la gracia a traves el Antiguo y el Nuevo Testamento y observa la gracia de Dios en accion en las vidas de algunos de los mejores y peores personajes. El autor tambien utiliza anecdotas de su propia vida para demostrar que la gracia no es una mera respuesta natural, sino la mas importante. Estas historias desvelan los misterios de la gracia y son una muestra de su poder transformador para liberarnos.

  • True Love - DOC
    True Love - DOC

    $9.90

    Document Overview:
    In this little treasure, Thich Nhat Hanh offers a Buddhist view of love along with techniques for manifesting it in our daily lives. In his characteristically direct, simple, and compassionate style, he explores the four key aspects of love as described in the Buddhist tradition: lovingkindness, compassion, joy, and freedom. In order to love in a real way, Thich Nhat Hanh explains, we need to learn how to be fully present in our lives. In True Love he offers readers the technique of conscious breathing as a method for synchronizing the mind and body to establish the conditions of love. He goes on to offer a mantra practice for generating love that consists of expressing four key statements or intentions in our relationships. These include: "Dear one, I am really there for you"; "Dear one, I know that you are there, and I am really happy about it"; "Dear one, I know that you are suffering, and that is why I am here for you"; and "Dear one, I am suffering, please help me." In the concluding section of the book, Thich Nhat Hanh explains how love can help us to heal our own pain, fear, and negativity. He explains that we must not regard negative emotions as bad and repress them. We must recognize them as part of us and allow them into our consciousness, where they can be cared for by the "loving mother of mindfulness."

  • Majestie
    Majestie

    $13.49

    $13.49

    From:Thomas Nelson Inc. 0

    Document Overview:
    Written with a touch of the irreverent, Majestie is a shared biography: that of the first Stuart King of England (James I) and the Bible that goes by his name. It is part tabloid, part history lesson, part speculation; but it's all James. A biography of James Stuart is a study in paradox, one that entertains as much as it informs. James I waddles through history, sidewise and crablike. Intellectually astute, he can dazzle and charm with the polish of his rhetoric one minute, and speak with the vulgarity of a tavern bawd the next. James is an amusing mix of bombast and majesty, of sparkle and grime, of smut and brilliance, of visionary headship and foolishness. And only he, this all–too–human king, our flawed James, could have given us the great book he did. Early in his reign, James fashioned himself as the "new Solomon," the pacifist prince entering the "the land of promise," that is, the England inherited from his cousin Elizabeth. But the milk and honey he expected was a mirage. Still, in many respects he flirts with greatness. He is the first king of a united, or "Great Britain." For all his foibles, all his bungling, James possesses an evolved sense of majesty, a type of faith in majesty itself, and wants nothing more than for his new Bible to reflect this majesty, to gild and elevate the reign, to be the great medicine that might heal the realm. Colorful, witty, imperfect, sensuous, bawdy, intelligent, England has had no king like him, nor any book like the one he bequeathed us, before or since.

  • Natural Wakefulness
    Natural Wakefulness

    $14.36

    Document Overview:
    There are two essential elements to the spiritual path says this popular teacher from the lineage of Chögyam Trungpa: (1) understanding that you're already enlightened, already perfect in wisdom right here and now, and (2) accessing that natural wakefulness through spiritual practice. These two aspects depend upon each other and work together. Gaylon Ferguson's teaching on the twin aspects of view and practice is a perfect introduction for the beginning meditator and it offers fresh perspectives for the non-beginner too.
