    Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Lone Ranger and Tonto Meet Buddha: Masks,

    2 in stock

    Book SynopsisReveals how to use masks, meditation, and improvisation to free yourself from overthinking, self-doubt, and fixed ideas of who you think you are Sharing a series of mindfulness techniques and acting exercises that show how malleable the self can be, award-winning actor, narrator, and Zen Buddhist priest Peter Coyote reveals how to use masks, meditation, and improvisation to free yourself from fixed ideas of who you think you are and help you release your ego from constant defensive strategizing, calm the mind’s overactivity, and allow spontaneous playfulness to arise out of your deepest nature. Developed through 40 years of research and personal study, Coyote’s synthesis of mask-based improv games and Zen practices is specifically designed to create an ego-suppressed state akin to the mystical experiences of meditation or the spiritual awakenings of psychedelics. After preparatory exercises, seeing yourself in a mask will temporarily displace your familiar self and the spirit of the mask will take over. Likening the liberated state induced by mask work to “Enlightenment-lite,” Coyote draws on Buddhist philosophy to describe how and why the exercises work as well as how to make your newly awakened and confident self part of daily life. In true Zen form, woven throughout the narrative is a lighthearted parable of an out-of-work Lone Ranger and Tonto, who meet Buddha and experience spiritual awakening. Illuminating the lessons of mask work, the transformation of the Lone Ranger mirrors that of the individual pursuing this practice, revealing how you will come to realize that the world is more magical and vaster than you thought possible.Trade Review“Remembering that a neutral mask class in college was one of the few acting exercises I found really useful, I was curious to see how an accomplished actor like Peter Coyote would tie mask work to the tenets of Buddhist philosophy. Through the lens of the Lone Ranger and Tonto, Coyote cleverly conveys the message of finding oneself by losing oneself. I highly recommend this book to every actor--veteran or fledgling--indeed to every human who has ever felt constrained by the voices of self-criticism in their head.” * Jean Smart, Emmy Award-winning actor *“This pithy book is flat-out brilliant. It weaves together deep Buddhist teaching, the magic of improv and mask work, and a compelling dialogue between three iconic characters, each of whom represent an aspect of the spiritual path. Only Peter Coyote in all his facets and talents could have written this book. I’m glad he did.” * Lewis Richmond, author of Aging as a Spiritual Practice *“In a world full of ideas about getting the advantage, gaining the edge or greater power, and improving your position or standing, it is so utterly refreshing to have a master speak of liberation from our long-standing ego conundrums to acknowledge and invite energy from the beyond to flow through, shape, and inform our thoughts, action, and speech. Story, masks, meditation--by all means--you are you before you have a thought, and you have the freedom to manifest the person, to wear the mask, of your choosing. Go ahead! Drop the striving and have some fun with this play of language brought forth by the wily Coyote.” * Edward Espe Brown, Zen priest and author of The Tassajara Bread Book *“In The Lone Ranger and Tonto Meet Buddha, I spent time not just with masks but with the craft of masking as a method of becoming more awake. I entered mask classes and met not only the teacher and the teaching but the students and what they were getting out of it. In this book are solid Buddhist commentary, intriguing story, and from that mix, I sense an emerging American discipline that unites theater and dharma--the Way of the Mask.” * David Chadwick, author of Crooked Cucumber: The Life and Zen Teaching of Shunryu Suzuki *“In this wild and wonderful book, Coyote weaves together his practices of Zen Buddhism and meditation with his experiences in theater and film, and as a well-known narrator of documentary drama. In the process, he teaches us how to put on and take off all our masks. The outcome is a bunch of fresh new techniques of exploring and gaining freedom from the suffering of a separate self. I encourage you to go on this spiritual journey with Coyote. It is a path true to the great tradition of ‘crazy wisdom.’ And this is the last self-help book you’ll ever need.” * Wes Scoop Nisker, author of The Essential Crazy Wisdom and Buddha’s Nature *Table of ContentsAUTHOR’S PREFACE A True Holiday from Self-Consciousness PART ONE Finding the Secrets 1 Losing Myself2 The Wheel’s Spinning, but the Gerbil’s Gone 3 Working with Masks 4 Just Who Do You Think You Are? 5 Tricking and Trapping the Self 6 Inviting the Shock of Recognition7 You Think It’s a Game?

  • Reverse Meditation: How to Use Your Pain and Most

    Sounds True Inc Reverse Meditation: How to Use Your Pain and Most

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisWhy do we meditate? The main reason most modern people start meditating is because it helps us feel better-reducing anxiety, improving sleep, decluttering the mind, and so forth. "But where does your meditation go when things go bad?" asks Andrew Holecek. "Where is your spirituality when 'rock meets bone,' as they say in Tibet-when the crap hits the fan?" Any meditator who sticks with it long enough will hit a turning point, when the methods that once brought inner peace stop working like they used to. In Reverse Meditation, Holecek reveals that's when our practice really begins-when we are called to throw out any assumption that meditation somehow insulates us from the confusion, suffering, and uncertainty of life. "By putting your meditation into reverse," he teaches, "you'll actually find yourself going forward. Step into your pain and you can step up your evolution." With his signature blend of depth and accessibility, Holecek teaches three expansive approaches to meditation- shamatha-based mindfulness, open awareness, and the boundary-smashing reverse meditations-along with on-the-spot practices for snapping into a meditative mindset even in trying moments. "What you once tried to escape with meditation now becomes your practice," he says. "This leads you to the discovery of unconditional happiness, basic goodness, and true freedom in the most turbulent situations."

But identity isn't only about us. It also influences what we see of the world around us. What is this world, after all? How does it relate to who we are and how we experience the world? As we explore these questions, the falseness of the dichotomy of you and the world around you is exposed. We are now upon a time in which our perspectives on spirituality, science, philosophy, and religion have evolved enough to stand together in the glare of the spotlight as we ask the most practical of questions: What is the common truth among all these? How does it change my life right now? How does it change the world? Is This a Dream? includes a Foreword by Deepak Chopra

    Rudolf Steiner Press THE Rose Cross Meditation: An Archetype of Human

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe Rose Cross meditation is central to the western - Rosicrucian - path of personal development as presented by Rudolf Steiner. Steiner repeatedly referred to the meditation as a 'symbol of human development' that illustrates the transformation of the human being's instincts and desires. These work unconsciously in the soul, and in thought, feeling and will. Through personal development, the 'I' - the essential self - can gain mastery over these unconscious forces of the soul. The Rose Cross meditation features the red rose as an image to which the student, via specific means, aspires. To the plant is added the black cross which, pointing to the mystery of death and resurrection, provides a symbol of the higher development of the human I. The metamorphosis of the roses and the cross into the symbol of the Rose Cross is brought about by the student's inner efforts, creating an entirely new image. This becomes the starting point for further steps along the meditative path.The Rose Cross meditation is the only pictorial meditation whose content and structure Steiner described in such detail. In this invaluable book, the editor has drawn together virtually all Rudolf Steiner's statements on the subject, arranging them chronologically within the motif of each chapter. His words are supported by commentary and notes.

    Book SynopsisThis is a book for our time - a time where we need a greater understanding of our bodily and emotional needs, as well as of our place in a globalised world where health has become a major issue. Since the beginnings of civilization, humans have relied on and respected the earth and its bounty, understanding that the energy of nature sustains and protects us when we live in balance. The aim of this succinct handbook is to encourage us to take an active role in our own well-being by bringing together the basics of good nutrition, mindfulness and radiesthesia. Here you will find simple advice about diet and fitness, along with explorations of the more spiritual side of healing involving auras, meridian lines and the chakra system (our personal energy fields), ley lines (the earth’s energy fields) and the energetic signatures of all that exists (the vibrational makeup of material and intangible phenomena which we tap into as we dowse). Everything contained in these pages has been composed, explained and published for the good of all. It is the first title of a new imprint that was inspired by and conceived by the work of David Willocks in New Zealand – mimosa books, named after the second star of the Southern Cross, a constellation beloved of the peoples of that nation and region.Table of ContentsPreface by the Editor; Introduction; Universal Healing; Six Pathways to Health; * Maintaining Health on a Daily Basis; Balance; Psychic Healing; The What and How of Dowsing; Dowsing and Radionics; Faith is the Opposite of Fear; Self-Healing; Personal Experiences and Techniques; References; Diagrams

It distills Dr. Judith Blackstone’s decades of teaching into the essentials of the nondual spiritual path. The first part of the book provides ways to make sense of the conflicting theories about nonduality available to spiritual seekers today.

The second part takes readers through the author’s signature path to nondual awakening, called the Realization Process®, providing effective practices for recognizing, embodying, and stabilising in nondual realisation. And the third part describes ways to bring this awareness into daily life and relationships. This book can help readers experience for themselves the essential oneness that underlies all life.
