Buddhisme: hellige skrifter

Una guida stimolante e curativa per immergersi nelle antiche meditazioni buddhiste del cuore: i brahmavih¿ra. In Cuore di Buddha, il maestro di meditazione stephen snyder rivela un percorso chiaro e originale per lo sviluppo dei potenti brahmavih¿ra. Queste pratiche offrono un sostegno profondo e rilassante per l'anima e un portale per il risveglio spirituale e l'approfondirsi dell'auto-realizzazione. Basato sulla comprensione esperienziale di Snyder e adatto a qualsiasi livello di pratica meditativa, Cuore di Buddha ci guida passo dopo passo attraverso:insegnamenti tradizionali sulle condotte salutari e sulle meditazioni di concentrazione, al fine di stabilire una base di sostegno per il nostro percorso di scoperta personale;meditazioni guidate che aprono il cuore alla gentilezza amorevole, alla compassione, alla gioia empatica e all'equanimità;ulteriori pratiche guidate per approfondire la consapevolezza, tra cui la gratitudine, il perdono e l'apertura all'Unità della Realtà;esercizi di esplorazione in ogni pratica meditativa, per portare alla luce i blocchi psicologici che impediscono l'accesso alle qualità del cuore della nostra natura più profonda;l'adozione della consapevolezza e di un'amorevole sintonia nella vita di tutti I giorni, aprendo il nostro cuore alle intense profondità della realtà e dell'Assoluto. Cuore di Buddha insegna ciò che appare controintuitivo ma che è innegabilmente vero: più apriamo il nostro cuore, più diventiamo resilienti e flessibili. E più siamo autenticamente vulnerabili, più siamo protetti e al sicuro.

Just as in autumn on a cloudless day the image of the moon can be seen reflected in a pond, so the disciples of the Buddha perceived the manifestation of the omnipresent reflected in the body of the Buddha.If the Buddha-Nature did not exist there would be no impulse to be liberated from the suffering of samsara and no heartfelt attraction to nirvana. Samsara is full of suffering and is therefore impure. Nirvana is bliss and therefore has merit. Neither would exist without the Buddha-Nature.
