Wie es ist - Band 1 von Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Broschur, 335 Seiten. Wie es ist - Band 2 von Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche Essenz von Dzogchen und Mahamudra  Die beiden Bänden Wie es ist geben ausgewählte Unterweisungen von Kyabje Tulku Urgyen wieder, die er 1994 und 1995 vor größeren sowie auch kleineren Zuhörergruppen gehalten hatte. Es waren die letzten beiden Jahren seines Lebens. Er sprach aus seiner persönlichen Erfahrung heraus, und all seine Unterweisungen waren erfüllt von Herzensgüte und Verwirklichung. Seine Energie und seine persönliche Art, die Menschen anzusprechen, erscheinen im Rückblick um so kostbarer. In Band 2 stehen die Vollendungsphase und die mit ihr verbundenen Übungen zur Erfahrung der letztendlichen Natur des Geistes im Mittelpunkt. Beide Bände können unabhängig voneinander gelesen werden und bilden jeweils für sich eine Einheit. 

Gebundenes Buch, 222 Seiten. Leerheit und Abhängiges Entstehen von Khensur Jampa Tegchok Khensur Jampa Tegchok kommentiert im ersten Teil des Buches einen der wichtigsten und schönsten Texte des tibetischen Meisters und Begründers der Gelug-Tradition, Je Tsongkhapa, den "Lobpreis an Buddha Sakyamuni für seine Lehre vom Abhängigen Entstehen". Dieser Kommentar stellt eine Einführung in die buddhistische Sicht der Wirklichkeit dar, die das allgemein als schwierig geltendes Thema mit großer Klarheit angeht. Es enthält detaillierte Meditationsanleitungen, mit deren Hilfe eigene falsche Wahrnehmungen überwunden werden können. Der zweite Teil enthält eine nicht-textbezogene Unterweisung des Autors mit der Überschrift "Leerheit verständlich gemacht." Sie geht auf viele logische Aspekte der Leerheit ebenso ein wie auf die Bedeutung der endgültigen Realität in der Praxis eines buddhistischen Meditierenden.

Dalai Lama and Thubten Chodron: VOLUME 8 - Realizing the Profound View About the book Realizing the Profound View challenges the ways we view the self and the world and brings us that much closer to liberation by guiding us in the analysis and meditations necessary to realize the ultimate nature of reality. With attention to Nagarjuna’s five-point analysis, Candrakirti’s seven-point examination, and Pali sutras, the Dalai Lama leads us to investigate who or what is the person. Are we our body? Our mind? If we are not inherently either of them, how do we exist, and what carries the karma from one life to the next? As we explore these and other fascinating questions, he skillfully guides us along the path, avoiding the chasms of absolutism and nihilism, and introduces us to dependent arising. We find that although all persons and phenomena lack an inherent essence, they do exist dependently. This nominally imputed mere I carries the karmic seeds. We discover that all phenomena exist by being merely designated by term and concept—they appear as like illusions, unfindable under ultimate analysis but functioning on the conventional level. Furthermore, we come to understand that emptiness dawns as the meaning of dependent arising, and dependent arising dawns as the meaning of emptiness. The ability to posit subtle dependent arisings in the face of realizing emptiness and to establish ultimate and conventional truths as non-contradictory brings us to the culmination of the correct view.

Sprache / Language: Englisch / EnglishHardcover, 544 pages. Dalai Lama and Thubten Chodron: VOLUME 9 - Appearing and Empty About the book This final volume on emptiness, Appearing and Empty, reveals the Prasangikas’ view of the ultimate nature of reality so that we will gain the correct view of emptiness and the means to eliminate our own and others’ duhkha. His Holiness and Venerable Thubten Chodron take us through the Sautrantika, Yogacara, and Svatantrika views on the ultimate nature of reality and the Prasangikas’ thorough responses to these, so that we gain the correct view of emptiness—the selflessness of both persons and phenomena. This view entails negating inherent existence while also being able to establish conventional existence: emptiness does not mean nothingness. We then learn how to meditate on the correct view by cultivating pristine wisdom that is the union of serenity and insight as taught in the Pali, Chinese, and Tibetan traditions. Such meditation, when combined with the altruistic intention of bodhicitta, leads to the complete eradication of all defilements that obscure our minds. This volume also introduces us to the tathagatagarbha—the buddha essence—and how it is understood in both Tibet and China. Is it permanent? Does everyone have it? In addition, the discussion of sudden and gradual awakening in Zen (Chan) Buddhism and in Tibetan Buddhism is fascinating.

Sprache / Language: Englisch / EnglishHardcover, 464 pages. Dalai Lama and Thubten Chodron: VOLUME 10 - Vajrayana and the Culmination of the Path About the book His Holiness the Dalai Lama skillfully illuminates the unique qualities of Vajrayana, as practiced in Tibet, and the method to eradicate the subtlest obscurations preventing the full awakening of a buddha. Speaking to newcomers and advanced students alike, he explains the similarities and differences of the Sutra and Tantra paths. Having gathered many of the doubts and difficult points concerning the tantric path, he clarifies the purpose of receiving proper empowerment by qualified gurus and the ethical restraints and commitments required to enter the path of secret mantra. The paths and stages of the four tantric classes are explained, as are the generation-stage and completion-stage practices of Highest Yoga Tantra. You are introduced to the practices of clear appearance and divine identity common to all tantric sadhanas, as well as the distinctive practices of illusory body and actual clear light that overcome the subtlest defilements on the mind and eliminate all obscurations quickly. The understanding of emptiness in Sutra and Tantra is the same, but the consciousness perceiving emptiness differs. In Highest Yoga Tantra that consciousness is great bliss, which arises from knowing the methods to manipulate the channels, winds, and drops of the subtle body. In short, in Vajrayana and the Culmination of the Path the Dalai Lama sets out the path that leads to blissful awakening and enables us to be of great benefit to all sentient beings.
