DESCRIPTION:
The Buddha was the first most active missionary in the world. He wandered from place to place for forty-five years preaching His doctrine to the masses and the intelligentsia. Till His last moment, he served humanity both by example and by precept. His distinguished disciples followed suit. Penniless, they even travelled to distant lands to propagate the Dharma, expecting nothing in return. This treatise, written by a member of the order of the Sangha, is based on the Páli Texts, commentaries and traditions prevailing in Buddhist countries. The first part of the book deals with the Life of the Buddha, the second with the Dharma, the Pali term for his Doctrine.

Simple Lessons You Can Use from a Buddhist Monk
Why are we here? What is goodness? Is there any value in goodness that an ordinary person – the sort who can be lured into foolish behavior – can make use of in this world? Is there a God and if so, can I depend upon Him or Her?
These are the questions that plague the wakeful moments of a common man. A penetrating mind won’t find satisfaction in looking at these questions conventionally. These questions have to be seen from the bottom up, so to speak.
In Questions from the City, Answers from the Forest, Buddhist monk and author Ajahn Sumano Bhikkhu explores the human mind and the causes behind humankind’s suffering. Written on a well-travelled, battery-powered laptop in a meditation cave in Thailand, this distillation of Buddhist wisdom answers the questions of “city” people who sought out the Buddhist in his forest retreat to obtain his answers to life’s most basic questions.

The Hundred Thrones is an arrow of thought that has been passed on to the conscience of society from a society that is being hunted down by such representations based on the place, color and caste of birth. It constantly questions our consciousness. It penetrates into the personification of our arrogance that we display in the glitter of silk garments over cultural symbols, and exposes all the vile feelings we have hidden inside. It will convince you that you are also involved in this sin. This book cannot be read without crucifying everyone. Readings from famous authors are also included.

DESCRIPTION:
Stories of Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Ganesha and Krishna and from the Ramayana and Mahabharata King Kubera was the greediest man in the world. Hated and feared by many, he schemed to win the love of the beautiful goddess Parvati but learned an important lesson when he invited her elephant-headed son Ganesha to lunch one day. Thus Goes One of the Many Delightful Tales in this decidedly grown-up book of traditional Indian stories, retold for the modern reader. Author Kamla K. Kapur's connection to these ago-old stories is the reverent yet individualistic kind we might expect from someone whose introduction is of her hometown, where naked, dreadlocked holy men speed about on motorbikes. To collect these stories, Kapur relied on ancient sacred texts, modern scholarship and chance encounters with interesting people who just happened to know a really good one about the time that Vishnu sank into the ocean, was incarnated as a pig and had a really wonderful time. Like myths around the world, these are teaching stories that offer both a window into a fascinating culture that has existed for thousands of years and a code for living that can be applied to the modern world. Whether you read these engaging tales for the monkey gods, talking toads and beautiful maidens in distress or for an eastern viewpoint on the eternal questions surrounding love, friendship, faith, happiness and war, this is a book that bears repeated reading and is a fine addition to any collection.

The Transformative Power of The Goddesses of Yoga How do you live a life of spiritual awakening as well as outer abundance, inner freedom as well as deep intimacy? How do you serve the world selflessly, yet passionately celebrate your life? The sages of Tantra have known for centuries that when you follow the path of Shakti — the sacred feminine principle personified by the goddesses of yoga — these gifts can manifest spontaneously. Yet most of us, women as well as men, have yet to experience the full potential of our inner feminine energies. In Awakening Shakti, you will learn how to recognize and invite: • Kali, bringer of strength, fierce love, and untamed freedom • Lakshmi, who confers prosperity and beauty • Saraswati, for clarity of communication and intuition • Radha, who carries the divine energy of spiritual longing • Bhuvaneshvari, who creates the space for sacred transformation • Parvati, to awaken creativity and the capacity to love With a wealth of meditations, visualizations, mantras, teachings, and beautifully told stories, Awakening Shakti provides a practical guide for activating the currents of the divine feminine in every aspect of your life. Sally Kempton has been studying and teaching the wisdom of yoga for 45 years. A highly regarded teacher of meditation and spiritual philosophy, she writes the popular Yoga Journal column “Wisdom.” Sally teaches retreats, teleclasses and workshops internationally.

From a Tradition of Blood Revenge Comes One of History's Greatest Peacemakers. When Mahatma Gandhi roused millions in a peaceful revolution against colonial rule, Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan seemed an unlikely man to enlist. Yet from the ruthless Pathan tradition in Indian's rugged North-West Frontier Province, Khan raised history's first nonviolent "army" of 100,00 men. Many cautioned Gandhi against involving in his nonviolent struggle these people with such a record of brutality. But under Khan's leadership the Pathans proved that it is often those who are capable of great violence who have the courage to stand unarmed against injustice.

DESCRIPTION:
The Story of a Great Soul, the Power of Nonviolence. Gandhi's face is instantly recognizable. But who was he? How did this young lawyer transform into the 'great soul' who led 400 million Indians in their nonviolent struggle for independence? Easwaran, who grew up in Gandhi's India, offers answers which are important both historically and personally. He gives a moving account of the turning points and choices in Gandhi's life that made him not just a great political leader but also a timeless icon of nonviolence. Gandhi's inner transformation, the essence of this biography, contains an urgent message for us today. Non-violence, Easwaran explains, is a practical method for resolving problems, healing relationships and raising the quality of our lives. It is a skill that is essential for the evolution and perhaps even the survival, of our civilization.

DESCRIPTION:
Take charge of your thoughts and reshape your life through meditation. Feeling trapped by unwanted thoughts and emotions can seem an inevitable part of life. But Easwaran, who taught meditation for nearly forty years, shows a way to break free. Just as a fitness routine can create a strong, supple body, spiritual disciplines can shape a secure personality and a resilient, loving mind. Writing as an experienced, friendly coach, Easwaran explains how we can train the mind not just during meditation but throughout the day. Working with difficult colleagues, choosing what to eat and listening to a child's needs are all opportunities to try out different, wiser responses. To shed light on the thinking process, Easwaran takes the timeless teachings of the Buddha and other mystics and illustrates them with scenes from contemporary life. He offers practical exercises for taking charge of our thoughts, along with instruction in his own method of passage meditation. Easwaran shows how training the mind is a glorious challenge - one that brings joy and purpose to life.
