Rome Summary Combines mindfulness with the Focusing technique made popular by Eugene Gendlin to tap into your body’s subtle wisdom for dealing with all life’s challenges. Your body has an answer to just about any question or challenge that arises. It’s simply a matter of learning to recognize and listen to the subtle physical signal that comes from someplace inside you other than your mind. This “felt sense” was first made widely known by the psychologist Eugene Gendlin, whose book on learning to use your felt sense, Focusing, has sold millions of copies since it was first published in 1978. Certified Focusing teacher David Rome here enhances the traditional Focusing techniques with mindfulness and other Buddhist principles learned from his teacher Chögyam Trungpa to provide remarkably effective techniques for learning to access your felt sense—and not only for applying it to problem solving and dealing with challenges, but for kick­ starting the creative process in oneself. With its short, accessible chapters and its abundant practical exercises, Shambhala this may be the most compact and accessible guide to Focusing yet published. 9781611800906 Pub Date: 10/7/14 Author Bio On Sale Date: 10/7/14 DAVID I.

The Essence of Buddhism An Introduction to Its Philosophy and Practice Traleg Kyabgon, Sogyal Rinpoche, The Karmapa Summary One of the clearest introductions to the teachings and philosophies of the three main schools of Buddhism: Theravada, Mahayana, and Tibetan. The Essence of Buddhism is a comprehensive overview of the Buddhist path from the perspective of the three vehicles of Tibetan Buddhism: the Hinayana, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Although these vehicles are associated with different attitudes toward Buddhist practice, basic to them all is the need to understand our own immediate condition. The primary tool for achieving this is meditation, and The Essence of Buddhism serves as a handbook for the various meditative approaches of Buddhist practice. Along the way, it provides vivid definitions of fundamental Buddhist concepts, such as compassion, emptiness, and Buddha­nature, and answers common questions.

    1 Sense of Shambhala – Results of the Process Team Survey of the Shambhala Community Part 4: Listening to Our Voices Responses to the Open-Ended Questions Published November, 2020 2 Executive Summary Where are we as a Shambhala community? What are the views, concerns and experiences of the people with varying connections to Shambhala? The goal of the Sense of Shambhala Survey was to listen deeply to all segments of Shambhala, to map the ground and describe how experiences and issues in Shambhala are understood by the individuals who took the time and had the motivation to respond. The survey opened on January 13 and closed on February 13, 2020. Email invitations were sent to 11,666 individuals. A total of 3,541 respondents opened the survey, and 3,093 (27%) answered the initial question. The Sense of Shambhala Survey was extensive and included both closed ended (checkbox and multiple choice) and open-ended questions. The quantitative data from the closed ended questions has been previously reported (See Parts 1-3 at https://shambhala-process-team.org/sense-of-shambhala-survey- the-results-are-here/). This report presents an analysis of the qualitative data recorded in 87 open- ended questions included in the survey. A detailed description of the methodology for analyzing this qualitative data is included in this report as Appendix 1. In summary, a team of volunteer coders read all the responses for a subset of questions and constructed a coding heuristic that grouped the contents of responses into content codes. The team then applied this heuristic to the responses for 87 open-ended survey questions, producing content codes for a total of 17,236 quote segments.

  • Shambhala Guide Training Program November 2012 Recommendation Form
    Shambhala Guide Training Program November 2012 Recommendation Form Dear Meditation Instructor/Centre Leader/Senior Teacher: In order for your student's application for the training program(s) to be reviewed, please complete and return the following recommendation form to: [email protected] or Dorje Denma Ling: Programs 2280 Balmoral Road Tatamagouche NS, B0K 1V0 We must receive your letter by October 21, 2012 Should the student be accepted, they will receive a list of study materials to work with prior to the actual training. It is therefore very important to have all of the documentation in by the relevant date. In writing your recommendation please consider the student's connection to practice. You should have some sense that they are tamed, processed and softened, and that they practice regularly. The student should express a willingness and desire to work with others (with an attitude that other is more important) and have a commitment to Shambhala and the teachings of the Vidyadhara and the Sakyong. The student should have an understanding that this authorization is a journey and a commitment, not a credential. Many people recommend people who are not completely appropriate candidates, because they wish to be supportive. Whether or not being a Shambhala Guide will be helpful to the student’s personal path should be a secondary consideration in your recommendation. Please be straightforward in your description of the student’s readiness. It is very painful for people to go through the training and not be authorized. The person who completes this training, or the Shambhala Guide, is a resource, guide, friend, and host to newcomers to meditation.

  • The Sacred Path of the Warrior Chögyam Trungpa Dorje Pradul of Mukpo Synopsis by Mireia I
    July 2021 Page !1 of !21 ! Shambhala [TSPOTW] The Sacred Path of the Warrior Chögyam Trungpa Dorje Pradul of Mukpo Synopsis by Mireia I. Negre (Yogimani) July 2021 Page !2 of !21 ! Shambhala [TSPOTW] Book Overview: “In this practical guide to enlightened living, Chögyam Trungpa offers an inspiring vision for our time, based on the figure of the sacred warrior. In ancient times, the warrior learned to master the challenges of life, both on and off the battlefield. He acquired a sense of personal freedom and power--not through violence or aggression, but through gentleness, courage, and self-knowledge. The Japanese samurai, the warrior-kings of Tibet, the knights of medieval Europe, and the warriors of the Native American tribes are a few examples of this universal tradition of wisdom. With this book the warrior's path is opened to contemporary men and women in search of self-mastery and greater fulfillment. Interpreting the warrior's journey in modern terms, Trungpa discusses such skills as synchronizing mind and body, overcoming habitual behaviors, relaxing within discipline, facing the world with openness and fearlessness, and finding the sacred dimension of everyday life. Above all, Trungpa shows that in discovering the basic goodness or human life, the warrior learns to radiate that goodness out into the world for the peace and sanity of others. The Shambhala teachings--named for a legendary Himalayan kingdom where prosperity and happiness reign--thus point to the potential for enlightened conduct that exists within every human being. "The basic wisdom of Shambhala," Trungpa writes, "is that in this world, as it is, we can find a good and meaningful human life that will also serve others.

  • Enlightenment Unfolds Is a Sequel to Kaz Tanahashi’S Previous Collection, Moon in a Dewdrop, Which Has Become a Primary Source on Dogen for Western Zen Students
    “Tanahashi is a writer and painter whose earlier collection, Moon in a Dewdrop, served as an introduction to the work of Dogen for many Western readers. This sequel collection draws from the complete range of Dogen’s writing. Some pieces have been widely translated and will be familiar to students of Zen, others have been reprinted from Moon in a Dewdrop, and still others appear here in English for the first time. Tanahashi worked with a number of co-translators, all of them Zen practitioners in Dogen’s lineage, and the result is an accessible and admirably consistent text. This is particularly impressive given the somewhat eccentric nature of Dogen’s prose, which can approach poetry and as a vehicle for Zen teachings often exists at the outer limits of usefulness of language in conveying meaning. Students of Zen will find this text essential.” —Mark Woodhouse, Library Journal ABOUT THE BOOK Enlightenment Unfolds is a sequel to Kaz Tanahashi’s previous collection, Moon in a Dewdrop, which has become a primary source on Dogen for Western Zen students. Dogen Zenji (1200– 1253) is unquestionably the most significant religious figure in Japanese history. Founder of the Soto school of Zen (which emphasizes the practice of zazen or sitting meditation), he was a prolific writer whose works have remained popular for six hundred years. Enlightenment Unfolds presents even more of the incisive and inspiring writings of this seminal figure, focusing on essays from his great life work, Treasury of the True Dharma Eye, as well as poems, talks, and correspondence, much of which appears here in English for the first time.
