The practice of mindfulness has received increasing attention and recognition in recent years as a simple, important, and effective means for maintaining physical and emotional health and well-being. Mindfulness involves focusing your attention on immediate present experiences with a compassionate, nonjudgmental attitude. This book presents a practical, step-by-step approach for establishing your own mindfulness practice. Brief introductory chapters explain the scientifically proven effects on health, as well as the philosophy behind this ancient practice. The remainder of the book consists of 25 experiential lessons that guide you through various meditative practices. You will learn to be mindful of your breath, sounds, sights, tastes, movements, physical sensations, thoughts, and feelings as you maintain a compassionate attitude toward yourself and others. With sustained attention, you will develop the ability to respond to life's experiences with calmness and acceptance, even the difficult experiences that we cannot control. Given the prevalence of anxiety, stress, depression, and other emotional turmoil in our fast-paced environment, mindfulness has become more important than ever. This book is essential reading for everyone who wants to begin or expand their own mindfulness practice

Language in the Buddhist Tantra of Japan - Indic Roots of Mantra (Paperback): Richard K. Payne Language in the Buddhist Tantra of Japan - Indic Roots of Mantra (Paperback)

Language in the Buddhist Tantra of Japan dismantles the preconception that Buddhism is a religion of mystical silence, arguing that language is in fact central to the Buddhist tradition. By examining the use of 'extraordinary language'-evocations calling on the power of the Buddha-in Japanese Buddhist Tantra, Richard K. Payne shows that such language was not simply cultural baggage carried by Buddhist practitioners from South to East Asia. Rather, such language was a key element in the propagation of new forms of belief and practice. In contrast to Western approaches to the philosophy of language, which are grounded in viewing language as a form of communication, this book argues that it is the Indian and East Asian philosophies of language that shed light on the use of language in meditative and ritual practices in Japan. It also illuminates why language was conceived as an effective means of progress on the path from delusion to awakening.

Buddha in Your Backpack opens by telling the life story of Buddha in a style any teen will easily identify with--Buddha as a young man questioned who he was and who he wanted, to become. He rebelled against his parents, rejecting the identity they tried to force upon him, and went off in search of himself and the truth. Then the author explores the difficulties of teen life today by relating the concerns raised with him by real teenagers. Using the teen's own words and stories, he shows how their issues echo those faced by Buddha in the opening section. Next, Buddha in Your Backpack describes typical troubles and dilemmas of teen life, applying Buddhist wisdom. Paying special attention to those things that matter, to teens--school, image, identity, sex, friends--the book shows how adopting a Buddhist perspective and applying Buddha's wisdom is easy and can help teenagers be happier and more positive. The next section delves deeper into Buddha's specific teachings, It explains concepts like mindfulness and the importance of wisdom ane compassion. It offers some Buddhist practices that can tried in private and some strategies to employ in public. "Keeping it real," as they say, the next part of the book shows that Buddhism is not an escape from reality. It is an escape to reality and realty isn't always easy It talks about facing problems, both within oneself and with others. Again using the words of teens the author has interviewed, in includes advice and tips from teens already practicing Buddhism. Finally, the book tells how to go further along a Buddhist path, it reviews resources for learning more about Buddhism, including books, magazines and websites, and describes ways to meet other Buddhists and places to get in-person Buddhist guidance.
