Book Description
“Imagine yourself sitting with a notebook and biro, scribbling down every word that you hear. You find yourself caught up in a dialogue that makes you laugh, cry, even be lost for words. These conversations, these words are very special, and I know that because they’re starting to change my life. My world expands every time we meet and talk, Sebastian and I.”“One day he suggests the idea of a book, so that I can tell you about what I’ve discovered. I’m excited at the prospect. That’s because I want other people to know what I know. But I realise I’ll also need to show you how I sometimes sit there with Sebastian, not understanding, sometimes sceptical – resistant, even. It’s not always easy being challenged, though I’m here to find out how to open my mind to new ways. This is my story, and maybe some of the pieces are yours too. I draw on my life experiences to illustrate and describe what happened to me. I tell you about the people I’ve met and learned from.”Walking Towards Light is a collection of short pieces which can be read both as a story about how author Jay Davies changed her life, and also as a variety of topics to return to at will. It is written in an easy and accessible style and shows the thinking processes she went through in order to make those changes. The book has a spiritual dimension, as that is part of her story, and it also includes some of her poems.Jay has been inspired by many spiritual authors and has written Walking Towards Light for people who want to make sense of the way they live their life and potentially make changes.

Zen and the Art of Insight

Author: Thomas Cleary
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 0834827204
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 215

Book Description
The Prajnaparamita ("perfection of wisdom") sutras are one of the great legacies of Mahayana Buddhism, giving eloquent expression to some of that school's central concerns: the perception of shunyata, the essential emptiness of all phenomena; and the ideal of the bodhisattva, one who postpones his or her own enlightenment in order to work for the salvation of all beings. The Prajnaparamita literature consists of a number of texts composed in Buddhist India between 100 BCE and 100 CE. Originally written in Sanskrit, but surviving today mostly in their Chinese versions, the texts are concerned with the experience of profound insight that cannot be conveyed by concepts or in intellectual terms. The material remains important today in Mahayana Buddhism and Zen. Key selections from the Prajnaparamita literature are presented here, along with Thomas Cleary's illuminating commentary, as a means of demonstrating the intrinsic limitations of discursive thought, and of pointing to the profound wisdom that lies beyond it. Included are selections from: • The Scripture on Perfect Insight Awakening to Essence • The Essentials of the Great Scripture on Perfect Insight • Treatise on the Great Scripture on Perfect Insight • The Scripture on Perfect Insight for Benevolent Rulers • Key Teachings on the Great Scripture of Perfect Insight • The Questions of Suvikrantavikramin

The Fear Cure

Author: Lissa Rankin, M.D.
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 1401944272
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 337

Book Description
Not many people in the medical world are talking about how being afraid can make us sick—but the truth is that fear, left untreated, becomes a serious risk factor for conditions from heart disease to diabetes to cancer. Now Lissa Rankin, M.D., explains why we need to heal ourselves from the fear that puts our health at risk and robs our lives of joy—and shows us how fear can ultimately cure us by opening our eyes to all that needs healing in our lives. Drawing on peer-reviewed studies and powerful true stories, The Fear Cure presents a breakthrough understanding of fear’s effects and charts a path back to wellness and wholeness on every level. We learn:• How a fearful thought translates into physiological changes that predispose us to illness • How to tell true fear (the kind that arises from a genuine threat) from false fear (which triggers stress responses that undermine health) • How to tune in to the voice of courage inside—our "Inner Pilot Light" • How to reshape our relationship to uncertainty so that it’s no longer something to dread, but a doorway to new possibilities • What our fears can teach us about who we really are At the intersection of science and spirituality, The Fear Cure identifies the Four Fearful Assumptions that lie at the root of all fears—from the sense that we’re alone in the universe to the belief that we can’t handle losing what we love—and shifts them into Four Courage-Cultivating Truths that pave our way to not only physical well-being, but profound awakening. Using exercises from a wide range of mind-body practices and spiritual traditions, Dr. Rankin teaches us how to map our own courage-cultivating journey, write a personalized Prescription for Courage, and step into a more authentic life.
