Three Buddhist teachers reflect on the nature of suffering and the human condition. Buddhism mainly concerns itself with suffering, so you'd think all Buddhist wisdom would be wisdom for difficult times, and that's true. However, there's suffering, and then there's suffering. I liked that Norman Fischer talked about the difference between his regular meditation practice helping him to understand the nature of change, and the sudden experience of grief when his good friend passed away deepening his understanding. In a way, daily meditation practice is just that - practice for the Olympic marathons of suffering that drop into our lives. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Buddhist Wisdom for Difficult Times A lively, topical guide on how to respond to life's inevitable difficulties-from personal crises to broader societal challenges The issue of difficulty in life is at the very essence of Buddhism. One can reasonably translate the first noble truth as, "life is full of difficulties," with the remaining noble truths serving as Buddhism's analysis of those difficulties and how to work with them. In Solid Ground, celebrated Buddhist teachers Sylvia Boorstein, Zoketsu Norman Fisher, and Tsoknyi Rinpoche use their diverse wisdom to address the immediate and practical concerns of our lives, including individual crises as well as the political, economic, and social challenges society is currently facing. Together, they explore the most basic and profound questions of Buddhism- the difficulty of life in general and how we can work with that and ameliorate it. Filled with humor and personal stories, Solid Ground offers specific teachings for concrete situations as well as a way to explore the larger questions of finding equanimity in difficult times.
