Die kleine Katze Maya hat es gut bei der reichen Witwe Alma – wenn da nicht dieses ständig nagende Gefühl von Unzufriedenheit und innerer Leere wäre. So verlässt Maya ihr vertrautes Samtkissen und begibt sich auf die Suche nach Sinn und Erfüllung. Doch weder bei den strengen "Heiligen Katzen", noch bei den wilden Straßenkatzen und deren Vorliebe für allerlei Sinnesfreuden wird sie fündig. Erst als sie am Ende ihrer Kräfte von dem alten Maler Eugen aufgenommen wird, wendet sich das Blatt: In der Meditation entdeckt Maya die Kraft der Stille.

Winner of the Eric Hoffer and Benjamin Franklin literary awards, this biography tells the story of Rama, Dr. Frederick P. Lenz, (1950-1998), an enlightened spiritual teacher who taught a brilliant, boundary-breaking form of American Buddhism to tens of thousands of people. This biography includes interviews and stories from over 100 students and colleagues, each with a different perspective. Rama did not just speak about enlightenment; he modeled it. Compassionate, controversial, wise, honest, prescient, reverent, irreverent, he was always teaching and still is.

Es wird uns viel abverlangt, wir sind immer unter Druck und gestresst, eilen von einem zum anderen und am Abend sind wir ausgelaugt und vielleicht sogar unzufrieden.

Der bekannte Zen-Meister Thich Nhat Hanh erklärt anhand eines alten buddhistischen Textes, wie Erleuchtung in unserem lauten Alltag verwirklicht werden kann.

Vor diesem Hintergrund erläutert Thich Nhat Hanh in diesem buddhistischen Standardwerk die 36 Verse aus dem "Kapitel über Nirvana" des Chinesischen Dharmapada.

We’ve all heard platitudes about cultivating love and compassion, but how can we really develop these qualities in ourselves and—crucially—share them in our world?

The Power of Mind shares instructions that we can work through, one by one—from recognizing the preciousness and impermanence of our lives to avoiding drama and self-centeredness. This wisdom is accessible to anyone seeking inner transformation—Buddhist or not.

Il senso più profondo della visione di Osho si rivela in tutta la sua potenza in questa serie di interviste da lui volute per far conoscere la sua proposta esperienziale al mondo intero. Come lui stesso spiega: "Per tutta la vita non ho fatto altro che stare da solo e pormi come la maggioranza dell'unico, contro il mondo intero.

Non ho bisogno di essere ammirato, non necessito di complimenti, ricompense o premi Nobel. Io basto a me stesso."

Sono molte le pratiche dell'insegnamento buddhista che si concentrano sull'essere nel momento presente. È una condizione che ci permette di tradurre in pratica i principi fondamentali della dottrina: se rimaniamo vincolati al passato, se siamo ansiosi per il futuro, se non sperimentiamo il vuoto che deriva dalla rinuncia all'attaccamento, se non comprendiamo fino in fondo l'interdipendenza di tutte le cose, non saremo mai nelle condizioni di vivere la vita nella sua pienezza. E di trovare la pace e la felicità, qui e adesso.

Once a person understands the rise and fall of all phenomena, then experiencing the worst that human life can give does not make one tremble. You know that it’s something passing just as the wind passes your face. You don’t know where that wind comes from, and you can’t tell where that wind is going. All you know is that a wind is blowing. You don’t know when that wind is going to end, nor if it will get stronger or weaker. Like the weather, the forecast for moods is “changeable".

Unlike other books which explain what Buddhism is, I'd like to focus on my insight into practicing Buddhism, the experience of practicing it, and getting positive results. Buddhism is not a religion.

This audiobook is going to help you better understand what Buddhism is, how it can benefit you, and how you can apply it in your daily routine.
