Title :
Among Tibetan TextsAuthor: Smith E. Gene, Schaeffer Kurtis R. (EDT), Hopkins Jeffrey (FRW), Schaeffer Kurtis R. Publisher: Pgw Among Tibetan Texts is part of Wisdom's acclaimed Studies in Indian and Tibetan Buddhism series. For three decades, E. Gene Smith ran the Library of Congress's Tibetan Text Publication Project (PL480)?an effort to salvage and reprint the Tibetan literature that had been collected by communities and exiles of Sikkim, Bhutan, India, and Nepal. Smith wrote prefaces to these reprinted books to help clarify and contextualize the particular Tibetan texts: the prefaces served as rough orientations to a poorly understood body of foreign literature. Originally produced in print quantities of 20, these prefaces quickly became legendary, and soon photocopied collections were handed from scholar to scholar, achieving an almost cult status. These essays are collected here for the first time. The impact of Smith's research on the academic study of Tibetan literature has been tremendous, both for his remarkable ability to synthesize diverse materials into coherent accounts of Tibetan literature, history, and religious thought, and for the exemplary critical scholarship he brought to this field. € 31,20

Title :
The Meaning of LifeAuthor: Dalai Lama XIV, Hopkins Jeffrey (TRN) Publisher: Simon & Schuster In The Meaning of Life the Dalai Lama presents the basic worldview of Buddhism while answering some of life's most profound and challenging questions: Why are we in this situation? Where are we going? How should we live our lives? Do our lives have any meaning? Basing his explanation on the twelve links of dependent-arising as depicted in the Buddhist image of the Wheel of Life, His Holiness vividly describes how human beings become trapped in a counterproductive prison of selfishness and suffering, and shows how to reverse the process, changing the limiting prison into a source of help and happiness for others. Suffused with the Dalai Lama's intelligence, wit, and kindness, these teachings address such issues as how to deal with aggression from within and without; how to reconcile personal responsibility with the doctrine of selflessness; how to face a terminal illness; how to help someone who is dying; how to reconcile love for family with love for all beings; and how to integrate this practice into everyday life. € 15,00

Title :
Opening the Eye of New AwarenessAuthor: Dalai Lama XIV, Lopez Donald S. (TRN), Hopkins Jeffrey (TRN) Publisher: Wisdom Pubns Originally written for Tibetan lay people, Opening the Eye of New Awareness is a succinct, thorough overview of the doctrines of Buddhism as they have been practiced for a thousand years in Tibet. In his first book on Buddhist philosophy to appear in English, the Dalai Lama discusses the need for religious practice and the importance of kindness and compassion, and a new introduction by the translator places these teachings in their proper historical context. Completed in 1963, just four years after his escape from Tibet and four years after completing his religious education, it is a work of consummate scholarship — not an edited transcript of public lectures, but His Holiness's own summation of Buddhist doctrine and practice. Nowhere in his many subsequent works does one find a more clear and concise exposition of the essentials of Buddhist thought. € 13,90

Title :
Meditative States in Tibetan BuddhismAuthor: Zahler Leah (EDT), Rinbochay Denma Locho, Hopkins Jeffrey (TRN) Publisher: Wisdom Pubns Meditative States gives a vivid and detailed account of the meditative practices necessary to develop a calm alert mind that is capable of penetrating the depths of reality. In this precise and lucid work, two prominent modern Tibetan lamas - Lati Rinbochay and Denma Locho Rinbochay - present comprehensive explanations of the mental states attained through meditation. Discussing step-by-step the practice of meditation itself, they provide us with practical antidotes to the various obstacles that may arise in meditation. At the same time, they intersperse their presentations with captivating descriptions of the sometimes fantastic, sometimes astonishing cosmology that provides the background and context for Buddhist practice. Their erudite and experienced expositions are enlivened as well by their compassion and humor, so typical of the Tibetan scholastic and yogic traditions. Drawing on classic texts by Asanga, Maitreya, and Dzong-ka-ba on the topics of the mediative states known as the concentrations and the formless absorptions, the two lamas bring alive the learning experience of the Buddhist culture of Tibet. This new edition of Meditative States also contains a revised translation of the great Pan-chen So-nam drak-ba's 'Explanation of the Concentrations and Formless Absorptions' from his wellknown treatise, the General Meaning of (Maitreya's) 'Ornament for Clear Realization.' € 15,20
