"Me he dado cuenta de que, en occidente, muchos estudiantes malinterpretan la práctica del tantra. Algunos creen que consiste en recibir cuantas más iniciaciones mejor, otros se contentan solo recitando el mantra; otros pretenden practicarlo sin tener un lama cerca, o yendo de un lama a otro sin ton ni son, y otros buscan practicar el estado de consumación y desean ir directamente al tummo y los canales, aires y gotas.Cualquiera de estas actitudes es contraria a la auténtica práctica tántrica que consiste en 1) recibir la iniciación, 2) pedir a alguien que consideres tu lama, el lung y el tri, es decir, la transmisión oral y elcomentario de la sadhana, 3) estudiarla durante años y 4) practicarla a diario hasta tu muerte. Así es como practicaban los mahasidhas, basándose en la devoción al gurú. Sin sutra no hay tantra, y sin lama no hay ni el uno ni el otro"."Antes de empezar a recitar la sadhana llevas a cabo la respiración en nueve rondas que has de aprender de tu lama. A continuación, despierta una motivación basada en la renuncia, la compasión y la bodhichita, así como en la visión de que todos los fenómenos carecen de identidad esencial, inherente". Gueshe Tamding Gyatso, Un Diamante en el espacio

It presents a collection of perspectives on epistemic agency by engaging philosophical traditions east and west, including Japanese, Buddhist, Confucian, Daoist, and Anglo-analytic.

"Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9 percent of everything you think, and of everything you do, is for yourself--and there isn't one." --Wei Wu Wei In his bestselling book No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up to Buddhism, Professor Chris Niebauer explored the incredible link between Eastern philosophy and recent findings in neuropsychology, which is now confirming a fundamental tenet of Buddhism: anatta, or the doctrine of "no self." We are just beginning to understand these parallels and what they mean for the human experience. Now, Niebauer takes a deeper dive, offering exercises and practices you can do right now to experience the state of "no self" and its benefits. These include being more present, finding inner peace, and seeing the world through the eyes of what Niebauer calls "clear consciousness." Read this book, do the practices, and begin to disidentify with the false sense of self that is the root cause of almost all the anxiety, depression, and fear we experience as human beings.
