Yale University Press Secular Buddhism
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Batchelor’s work will undoubtedly appeal to many 'spiritual, but not religious' readers."—Publishers Weekly“Explores the complex implications of Buddhism’s secularisation.”—Tibet Foundation"Brilliant, illuminating, and thought-provoking, After Buddhism deserves the ultimate compliment for a work of this kind: it is useful. In probing the ancient scriptures in search of a Buddha we can relate to, Batchelor makes his dharma come thrillingly alive. A masterful achievement."—Mark Epstein, author of Thoughts without a Thinker"In this remarkable book, Stephen Batchelor transcends Buddhist dogma to surface a vision of the dharma that goes right to the heart of our contemporary global culture. Through diligent scholarship and years of practice, the author sheds new and revelatory light on the dharma. This is a must-read for all students of Buddhism."—Joan Halifax, Abbot, Upaya Zen Center"With exemplary lucidity, Stephen Batchelor demonstrates the relevance of an ancient thought and practice in our own era. There is much in it that illuminates and clarifies—for those acquainted with Buddhism as well as those coming to it for the first time."—Pankaj Mishra"Drawing on insights gleaned during decades of intensive practice, study, and writing, Batchelor’s essays demonstrate conclusively how the ancient texts of Buddhism speak directly to the needs of contemporary people living active, engaged lives in the world."—Robert E. Buswell, Jr., University of California, Los Angeles"An audacious disquisition on Buddhism, universal dharma, reality, and suffering for the 21st century. Batchelor posits that for the deep wisdom of Buddhism to serve humanity fully in our time, it may have to transcend itself."—Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Full Catastrophe Living and Coming to Our Senses

Stone Bridge Press My Heart Sutra: A World in 260 Characters
Book SynopsisThe Heart Sutra is the most widely read, chanted, and copied text in East Asian Buddhism. Here Frederik L. Schodt explores his lifelong fascination with the sutra: its mesmerizing mantra, its ancient history, the “emptiness theory, and the way it is used around the world as a metaphysical tool to overcome chaos and confusion and reach a new understanding of reality--a perfection of wisdom. Schodt's journey takes him to caves in China, American beats declaiming poetry, speculations into the sutra's true origins, and even a robot Avalokiteśvara at a Kyoto temple.Trade Review"Like the Heart Sutra itself, Schodt’s words are prismatic—stories of a lifetime of personal encounter with this ancient sacred text are set alongside historical, cultural, and linguistic commentary, each facet both intriguing in itself and an invitation to further inquiry." —Lion's Roar "The very personal nature of My Heart Sutra is what gives this book its readability, especially to the uninitiated." —Books on Asia "Schodt’s obsession with the sutra and expertise as a translator shows in his ability to decode academic conversations and practical religious concerns into accessible language.” —Publishers Weekly "My Heart Sutra is a love letter to the Heart Sutra, as well as a trip through time, and to the far corners of the Buddhist world where it’s popularity remains unabated." —Maryse Cardin, The Pacific Rim Review of Books "Unique...an engaging read to anyone with the slightest interest in the subject." —Nikkei Asia "Schodt has found the Heart Sutra to be the most transformative spiritual influence in his life, and this book is his tribute for others to experience the scripture’s magic for themselves." —teahouse.buddhistdoor.net “This is not merely a book about the Heart Sutra. It’s about the stories that grew up around it, its journey through human civilization like a self-replicating meme, a scrap of wisdom whispering in temples, shopping malls, and movies.” —Jonathan Clements, author of A Brief History of China "Reading My Heart Sutra, I imagined pulling a loose thread at the end of a one-page sutra and unraveling enough yarn to weave together a life, with enough left to make a new robe for the Buddha." —Red Pine, author of The Heart Sutra: The Womb of Buddhas “Frederik Schodt has created a magical weaving of two stories of wonder: how the Heart Sutra arose from somewhat fantastic origins to become the most recognizable Buddhist scripture in China and Japan today through new forms of expression, and how the enigmatic teachings of this “sutra concerned with negating everything” has served as a kind of moving goalpost within the author, challenging, inspiring, and guiding him as his religious consciousness unfolds.” —Mark L. Blum, professor of Buddhist Studies and Shinjo Ito distinguished chair in Japanese Studies, University of California, Berkeley; editor of Cultivating Spirituality, Rennyo and the Roots of Modern Japanese Buddhism, translator of The Nirvana Sutra, vol. 1 "I am not sure I have read another book in which the author is as sensitive as Schodt to the quality of the spoken or chanted version of [The Heart Sutra]." —Leanne Ogasawara, Kyoto Journal “Frederik L. Schodt skillfully weaves together personal anecdotes, details of Buddhist teaching and history, and many other facts and stories, giving readers a compelling reason to study the Heart Sutra and make the wisdom of Emptiness part of their lives." —Daigaku Rummé, Sōtō Zen priest at the Confluence Zen Center St. Louis "Schodt has found the Heart Sutra to be the most transformative spiritual influence in his life, and this book is his tribute for others to experience the scripture’s magic for themselves." —teahouse.buddhistdoor.netTable of ContentsContents Foreword My Mantra How I Met the Mantra Seeking Context Xuanzang Monkey An American Thesis Heart Sutra Land The Metaphysical Can Opener New Life in a New World Afterword Notes Select Bibliography.

Equinox Publishing Ltd Student's Guide to the History & Philosophy of
Book SynopsisThe word 'yoga' conjures up in the minds of many Westerners images of people performing exercises and adopting unusual, sometimes contortive postures. Such exercises and postures do have a place within the practice of yoga, but it is much more than that. Indeed, the early literature on yoga describes and defines it as a form of mental rather than physical discipline. Yoga is also associated with the Indian subcontinent and the religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. This revised edition of a classic textbook concentrates on the evolution of yoga in the context of Indian culture, though the final chapters also explore some of its links with non-Indian mystical traditions and some of its developments outside of India during the modern period. The book is aimed at both university students taking courses in Comparative Religion and Philosophy and practitioners of yoga who seek to go beyond the activity and explore its spiritual dimensions. Hence, it presents yoga in the context of its historical evolution in India and seeks to explain the nature of its associations with various metaphysical doctrines. The work also draws upon a number of conceptual schemes designed to facilitate comparative study. Some of these are employed throughout the book so as to link the material from each chapter together within a common framework. This edition incorporates revisions and expansions to most chapters and contains one new chapter on the future of modern yoga in the West.Trade Reviewreviews of the first edition: '...accessible, engaging and instructive for the inquiring, practical student of Yoga. ...The plentiful, extensive extracts from the primary texts, the scholarly background which contextualizes them, and the clarity of presentation throughout all confirm Connolly as a skilful teacher and will make his Guide a valuable resource for students of Yoga in the West.' International Journal of Hindu Studies 'Connelly's book offers something for students at many levels of inquiry on this ancient, and now modern, discipline.' Metapsychology 'In his introduction to the history of yoga traditions Peter Connolly skillfully guides the reader through the complexities of these traditions, demonstrating their historical relationships and their theoretical coherence. Intended for all students of yoga, this text provides a well written, thought-provoking and engaging account.' Professor Gavin Flood, University of Stirling 'Offers an excellent text on Yoga that will appeal to students, teachers, and practitioners. Highly recommended.'

Hackett Publishing Co, Inc The Inner Chapters
Book SynopsisThe Inner Chapters are the oldest pieces of the larger collection of writings by several fourth, third, and second century B.C. authors that constitute the classic of Taoism, the Chuang-Tzu (or Zhuangzi). It is this core of ancient writings that is ascribed to Chuang-Tzu himself.Trade ReviewGraham's study and translation of the Zhuangzi remains one of the most valuable and important sources for students of Zhuangzi's thought. The Introduction is remarkably rich, and the combination of philological care and philosophical insight that Graham brings to the text make this the most philosophically revealing and productive translation available. --Philip J. Ivanhoe, Boston UniversityMore than just a translation of the renowned seven initial chapters of this foundational Taoist text, Angus Graham's Chuang-Tzu: The Inner Chapters includes about four-fifths of the entire work. It is the only Western translation organized around the distinct philosophical viewpoints in the text, and it is without a doubt the most innovative, philologically precise and religiously significant. It has been out of print for most of the past decade and its republication is most welcome. --Harold D. Roth, Brown UniversityAngus Graham was for many of us the most distinguished sinologist of his generation. This annotated translation of the Zhuangzi is a splendid demonstration that only his rare combination of philological and philosophical acuity can provide the Western reader nuanced access to the profundity and humor of one of the world’s masterpieces of philosophical literature. --Roger T. Ames, University of Hawaii

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Daoist Nei Gong for Women: The Art of the Lotus
Book SynopsisAlthough the energetic anatomy of men and women is different, the ancient teachings of Nu Dan, a separate branch of internal alchemy for women, have been lost in the literature over the centuries and only survive through practice in the lineages. This book takes a detailed look at female energetic anatomy, exploring how it is different from its male counterpart, and explains and describes the specific practices which support the unique strengths and challenges that the female energy system presents. Previously wrapped in secrecy, the teachings in this book include qigong exercises that activate the energy of the uterus and an explanation of how menstruation and a connection to the cycles of the moon can be converted into a tool for Nei Gong development.Trade ReviewI knew I had found a rare treasure for my instructors and students when I read Roni and Damo's Daoist Nei Gong for Women. Thorough, deep and wise, this is a voluminous "must-have" on any serious Qigong/ Neigong practitioner's shelf. It is sure to answer all questions women will have on these ancient health and empowerment practices, as up until now, so few knowledgeable books have been written about them. Women practitioners will now have a deep well to draw from, gleaning wisdom from two of the finest teachers of Neigong in the modern world. -- Daisy Lee, Founder, Radiant Lotus Women's QigongTable of ContentsForeword by Sophie Johnson.

It is an enormous task to translate from beginning to end a text as difficult as the Xunzi.

Hackett Publishing Co, Inc Buddhism As Philosophy
Book SynopsisIn Buddhism As Philosophy, Mark Siderits makes the Buddhist philosophical tradition accessible to a Western audience. Offering generous selections from the canonical Buddhist texts and providing an engaging, analytical introduction to the fundamental tenets of Buddhist thought, this revised, expanded, and updated edition builds on the success of the first edition in clarifying the basic concepts and arguments of the Buddhist philosophers.Trade Review"Since the publication of the first edition of Buddhism As Philosophy, the need for such a book has only grown as even more undergraduate programs are teaching Buddhist philosophy and looking for accessible materials that still do justice to the tradition’s intellectual complexity. This updated version retains the first version's successful balancing act between fidelity to primary source material and application to general philosophical problems. The book teaches students how to do philosophy at the same time as it teaches them the particularities of Buddhist philosophy. Siderits moves fluidly from translations of primary texts to their explication and evaluation, both modeling expert philosophical methodology and pausing to explain to students how philosophical argumentation works." —Malcolm Keating, Yale-NUS College"I use Buddhism As Philosophy as the core text of my 'Non-Western Philosophy' topics course; I’m a huge fan. Siderits's exposition provides a deeply illuminating, historically and philosophically informed walk through the underlying motivations for and diverse Indian Buddhist approaches to the doctrines of 'no-self' and 'emptiness.' This new edition improves on the previous with a new organizational structure, and clarified and expanded argumentation and discussion. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical underpinnings and consequences of Buddhism." —Jessica Wilson, University of TorontoPraise for the first edition: "Buddhism As Philosophy . . . makes an excellent text for advanced undergraduate students. . . . [A] main strength of this book is the way it brings Indian Buddhist philosophy into active dialogue and debate with well-established currents of Anglo-American analytical philosophy." —Evan Thompson, Philosophy East and West"The study of Buddhism at the undergraduate level is often placed in religious studies, where the myriad aspects of Buddhist teachings, history, ritual, sociology, and art are all rolled into one, creating a robust course but one that lacks the depth of Buddhist philosophical argumentation. Siderits moves in the opposite direction, removing all but the essential philosophical points. Written explicitly as a resource for undergraduate philosophy students, the book focuses on the classical South Asian tradition, explicating the many cycles of teachings through the use of extensive primary source material and explaining the complexities of Buddhist philosophy in a way accessible to those accustomed to studying Western philosophy. This revision of the 2007 edition was expanded to clarify some of the more difficult passages used throughout and includes introductory notes on usage suitable for undergraduates. This volume is required reading as a survey of Buddhist philosophy, not just for the undergraduate classroom but for any scholar entering the complex philosophies of South Asia.

In this opening section, Adamson and Ganeri emphasize the way that philosophy was practiced as a form of life in search of liberation from suffering. Next, the pair move on to the explosion of philosophical speculation devoted to foundational texts called ''sutras,'' discussing such traditions as the logical and epistemological Nyaya school, the monism of Advaita Vedanta, and the spiritual discipline of Yoga. In the final section of the book, they chart further developments within Buddhism, highlighting Nagarjuna''s radical critique of ''non-dependent'' concepts and the no-self philosophy of mind found in authors like Dignaga, and within Jainism, focusing especially on its ''standpoint'' epistemology. Unlike other introductions that cover the main schools and positions in classical Indian philosophy, Adamson and Ganeri''s lively guide also pays attention to philosophical themes such as non-violence, political authority, and the status of women, while considering textual traditions typically left out of overviews of Indian thought, like the Carvaka school, Tantra, and aesthetic theory as well. Adamson and Ganeri conclude by focusing on the much-debated question of whether Indian philosophy may have influenced ancient Greek philosophy and, from there, evaluate the impact that this area of philosophy had on later Western thought.Trade ReviewThe ideal introduction to Indian philosophy for someone new to the field.

State University of New York Press Those Who Act Ruin It
Book SynopsisPresents an iconoclastic account of morality and moral discourse from the perspective of Daoist philosophy.Drawing on both western and Chinese philosophy, Those Who Act Ruin It shows how Daoism presents a viable alternative to established moral theories. The Daoist, critical of the Confucian and Mohist discourses of their time, provides an account of morality that can best be understood as achieving an attunement to situations through the cultivation of habits. Furthermore, Daoism''s meta-ethical insights outline how moral philosophy, when theorized in a way that ignores our fundamental interdependence, devolves into moralistic narcissism. Another way of putting this, as the Daodejing states perfectly, is that "those who act ruin it" (). Sensitive to this problem, the Daoist account of moral attunement can ameliorate social woes and not "ruin things." In their moral attunement, Daoists can spontaneously respond to situations in ways that are sensitive to the underlying interdependence of all things.

Columbia University Press Zhu Xi
Book SynopsisZhu Xi (1130–1200) was the preeminent Confucian thinker of the Song dynasty. This book presents the essential teachings of the new Confucian (“Neo-Confucian”) philosophical system that he forged. Daniel K. Gardner’s translation renders these discussions and sayings in an accessible, conversational style.Trade ReviewGardner, the foremost interpreter of Zhu Xi in America, strikes a perfect balance between translation and explication: he takes the reader through a nuanced reading of key passages from Zhu’s voluminous oeuvre, supplying at just the right points explanations of concepts and contexts. A superb resource for students of China, in the classroom and beyond. -- Cynthia Brokaw, Brown UniversityWith introductions succinctly explaining why and how the philosopher reshaped the Confucian tradition and what his basic and most enduring teachings are about, this volume is an elegant translation of passages carefully selected and thematically arranged to convey the central message of Zhu Xi’s Neo-Confucianism. As an eminent scholar in the field, Gardner has successfully rendered its profundity not only more intelligible to students but also readily accessible to the public. -- Charles Chan, The Hong Kong University of Science and TechnologyZhu Xi: Basic Teachings is an excellent introduction to Neo-Confucianism as synthesized by its most influential proponent. Building on his earlier publications and translations, Daniel Gardner has given us highly accessible translations and explanations of Zhu Xi's work while preserving the style and voice of this central figure in East Asian thought. -- Hilde De Weerdt, author of Information, Territory, and Networks: The Crisis and Maintenance of Empire in Song ChinaDaniel Gardner gives us an excellent guide to Zhu Xi’s ideas on a broad range of topics that concerned him. By drawing materials largely from Zhu’s conversations with students, Gardner often lets us see Zhu thinking on his feet in response to questions, offering fascinating insights into an important mind at work. -- Robert Paul Hymes, author of Way and Byway: Taoism, Local Religion, and Models of Divinity in Sung and Modern ChinaThese writings of Zhu Xi’s will be extraordinarily useful for a wide audience, including general readers. A volume like this for Song Neo-Confucianism is long past due. -- Robert André LaFleur, author of China: A Global Studies HandbookSuperbly translated. -- Sukhee Lee * Journal of Chinese History *This is a book of which at least one copy should be on the shelves of every university library. It is the book I would recommend to any student who would ask for a short introduction to Zhu Xi’s philosophy and thought. It is a little masterpiece. -- Joachim Gentz * Journal of Chinese Religions *An ideal resource for classes on Confucianism and East Asian religions. -- Lukas K. Pokorny * Religious Studies Review *Gardner’s translations from the Zhuzi yulei constitute a most welcome contribution on the study of so-called Neo-Confucianism and the man and his work that informed this philosophical system that still reverberates through contemporary Chinese discourses. -- Bernhard Fuehrer * Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies *Table of ContentsIntroductionNotes on the Text and Translation1.

Rangjung Yeshe Publications,Nepal Rainbow Painting
Book SynopsisRainbow Painting is saturated with direct, pithy instruction, the very quintessence of the Buddhist Spiritual approach. Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche speaks from experience, expressing what he himself has undergone, instructing us in the way we should train in a complete and unmistaken manner. We come to understand that to become enlightened we must experience what was always present within us. The ultimate object of realization, the natural state of mind, unmistakenly and exactly as it is, need not be sought for elsewhere but is present within ourselves. Stability in this unexcelled state of unity is not attained independently of means, proper conduct and knowledge of the view. We should unite view and conduct; and this book contains the key points for doing just that.Some people have the habit of thinking that something is bound to happen after practicing meditation a while like going through school that after ten or fifteen years you end up with a degree. That’s the idea in the back of people’s minds: I can make it happen! I can do enlight¬enment!” Not in this case, though. You cannot make enlightenment, because enlightenment is unconstructed. Realizing the awakened state is a matter of being diligent in allowing nondual awareness to regain its natural stability. It is difficult to reach enlightenment without such dili¬gence, without undertaking any hardship.”---Tulku Urgyen RinpocheTulku Urgyen Rinpoche is someone who has lived at length in mountain hermitages, spent many years in retreat, and done a considerable amount of meditation training. For this reason, he gives the very quintessence of the sacred Dharma spoken by our compassionate Buddha Shakyamuni. He speaks from experience, expressing what he himself has undergone, instructing us in the way we should practice in a complete and unmistaken manner. These teachings, saturated with direct, pithy instruction, are unique.”---Chökyi Nyima RinpocheThe ultimate object of realization, the natural state of mind, unmistakenly and exactly as it is, need not be sought elsewhere than in ourselves. We become enlightened through experiencing what is always innately present. Stability in this unexcelled unawareness is attained when view, the knowledge aspect and conduct, the means are integrated. In Rainbow Painting, Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche presents the practices to accomplish this unity.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers A Comprehensive Guide to Daoist Nei Gong
Book SynopsisNei Gong is the practice leading to attainment of real internal skill and transformation, and the philosophical art of change that runs through all Daoist practice. This book provides a unprecedented insight into the entire Nei Gong process, expanding upon the foundations laid in the author's previous widely read book, Daoist Nei Gong, to provide a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the practice. Going into unparalleled detail whilst remaining accessible, it explains the philosophy at the heart of Nei Gong , and the steps whereby transformation is achieved. A foundational knowledge of Chinese medicine will help the reader appreciate the explanation more deeply, but is not required for understanding. Essential reading for anyone seriously interested Qi Gong, Chinese martial arts, and the Daoist tradition, the book will also be an invaluable resource for practitioners of Chinese medicine, or advanced meditation.Trade ReviewI urge anyone interested in the internal arts to read this book. You won't get standard regurgitated descriptions of Qi or Qi gong. Nor will you get exotic tales of secret rituals in dark caverns. What you will get is a truly comprehensive sharing of profound information in an accessible format. Damo has not only dedicated his life to cultivating 'gong' but also to understanding the processes involved (somatically and intellectually) so that others can benefit. -- Dr Cindy Engel, Associate Lecturer, The Open University, U.KI really don't know of anyone else who has written about the nei gong process in the depth and detail in which Damo has. He clearly writes from a depth of experience in the nei gong tradition. He has a unique ability to explain nei gong in a clear and logical way that anyone can understand if prepared to make the effort. The diagrams in the books are especially helpful in making concepts clear. -- Kenneth Morgan * Medical Qigong Education Centre *Table of ContentsPreface; Foreword by Paul Mitchell; Acknowledgements; 1.
