Описание: The phrase "Kadam masters" evokes for many Tibetans a sense of a spiritual golden age--the image of a community of wise yet simple monks devoted to a life of mental cultivation. These eleventh- and twelfth-century masters were particularly famed for their pithy spiritual sayings that captured essential teachings in digestible bites. In these sayings one unmistakably detects a clear understanding of what comprises a truly happy life, one that is grounded in a deep concern for the welfare of others.
Like the "Sayings of the Desert Fathers," Lao Tzu, or Rumi, the teachings contained in "Wisdom of the Kadam Masters" can be approached as a part of the wisdom heritage of mankind, representative of the long history of the long human quest to understand our existence and its meaning. This volume offers some of the most beloved teachings of the Tibetan tradition.

Описание: What do Buddhist monks learn about Buddhism? Which part of their enormous canonical and non-canonical literature do they choose to focus on as the required curriculum in their training, and what do they elect to leave out? The cultural depository of Buddhism includes some four thousand canonical texts, hundreds of other historical works, modern textbooks, oral traditions, and more recently, an increasingly growing body of online material. The sheer diversity of this mass of information makes the pedagogical choices of monastics worthy of close study.Monastic Education in Korea is essentially a biography of the Korean Buddhist monastic curriculum over the past five centuries. Based on extensive ethnographic work and archival research in Korean monasteries, it illustrates how a particular premodern syllabus was reimagined in the twentieth century to become the sole national Korean monastic pedagogical program - only to be criticized and completely restructured in recent years. Through a detailed analysis of these modifications, the work demonstrates how Korean Buddhist reformers today tend to imitate the educational practices and canonize the textual totems of the contemporary international discipline of Buddhist studies, and how, by doing so, they ultimately transform the local Korean tradition from a particular brand of Chinese-centered scholastic Chan into the inclusive, pluralistic, Indian-focused Buddhism common in English-language introductions to the religion.The book further examines the proliferation of diverse graduate schools for the sangha, as well as the creation of a novel examination system for all monastics. It reveals some of the realities of operating large monastic organizations in contemporary Asia and portrays a living, vibrant Buddhist community that is constantly negotiating with modern values and reformulating its core orthodoxies.

Описание: Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia… This vast area has experienced significant changes following political and socio-cultural upheavals: the Chinese occupation of Tibet since the 1950s; the opening of Nepal to the world in 1951 and the influx of large numbers of Tibetan refugees into its territory; the end of the communist era and the transition to a market economy in Mongolia, and more generally the confrontation with modernity and globalisation. Revisiting Rituals in a Changing Tibetan World examines the changes rituals have undergone and offers the reader the result of recent research based on both fieldwork and textual studies by researchers who have worked in these countries.Contributors include Hildegard Diemberger, Fabienne Jagou, Thierry Dodin, Fernanda Pirie, Nicola Schneider, Mireille Helffer, Alexander von Rospatt, Marie-Dominique Even, Robert Barnett, Katia Buffetrille

Описание: Many people have written numerous books on the topic of "patience". However, Segun Idahor is inspirationally blessed with great in-depth pastoral skills and insight to make an indelible difference to the extensive resources of the subject matter in his debut landmark exposition A Little Patience Will Not Hurt You. Lack of patience, the plain old "human error" and fast paced society (better known as microwaved generation) have damaged many relationships or virtues. Told in a language we can all understand, Segun`s book explores such profound questions like `What is patience?` and `How old is too old?` It also explains with a profound inspiring revelation that `God Is the Best Coach`. Armed with nothing but his ingenuity, his pastoral skills and unending sense of humor that proves to be his greatest source of strength, Segun presents his book as a heartwarming, sometimes hilarious, and sometimes heartbreaking collection of Biblical references and life transforming stories which illustrate that the more we see, the more we learn about ourselves as human beings... Segun embarks on a dogged quest to highlight these resourceful contributions about the importance of "patience" in human endeavors. It is loaded with encouragement, wisdom, prayers, and the Word of God to empower you on life`s journey of practical living with patience. Discover and comprehend how his resourcefulness makes the indelible difference. Educative at every chapter and intensely interesting at every turn...right up to its life-transforming conclusion.
