Buddhism: a Selected Bibliography Buddhism: A Selected Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell Department of Philosophy Santa Barbara City College (2008) Although a selected bibliography, this is nonetheless a rather long list commensurate with the immense number of titles available on Buddhism.

    PROGRAMM NOVEMBER 2018 – APRIL 2019 www.kamalashila.de Liebe Freunde, liebe Förderer, liebe „Wir können nicht untätig dasitzen und bloß darauf warten, dass die Zeit unser Leben umkrempelt. Wir müssen in uns selbst hineinschauen und Gäste des Kamalashila Instituts, die Veränderungen finden, die wir sehen wollen. Dann sind wir es, die diese Veränderungen herbeirufen und Verantwortung dafür übernehmen viele von uns empfinden die gegenwärtige Situation in der Welt als müssen, uns zu verwandeln. Was ist es hauptsächlich, was sich ändern eine Zeit, in der Sicherheit gebende Gemeinschaften schwächer muss? Es ist unsere Art zu denken und unsere Motivation. Wenn wir werden, alte Bündnisse auseinanderbrechen und neue Bündnisse beides verändern können, dann werden wir unserem Leben einen großen zunehmend von egoistischen Interessen bestimmt sind. Angesichts Ruck geben können.” der immer schärferen Töne einer immer schneller und aufgeregter S.H. der XVII. Karmapa werdenden Kommunikation erscheint die Praxis respektvoller Ver- ständigung und Diplomatie inzwischen fast schon als unzeitgemäß. Stattdessen werden Konfrontation und Abgrenzung als scheinbar ein- fache Antworten auf immer komplexer werdende Fragen angeboten. Doch etwas hat sich nicht geändert und wird sich wohl nie ändern: Allen Wesen ist gemeinsam, dass sie sich wünschen glücklich zu sein und Leid zu vermeiden. Und: Wir alle sind Teil des Weltgeschehens; wir sind aufgrund des Mechanismus von Ursache und Wirkung un- trennbar mit anderen verbunden. Deshalb brauchen und sollten wir unsere Fähigkeit, den Lauf der Dinge positiv zu beeinflussen, nicht unterschätzen. Der Gedanke des Mitgefühls als buddhistische Grundhaltung be- stimmt seit jeher die Programmgestaltung des Kamalashila Instituts, doch in unsicheren und tumultreichen Zeiten erhält er nochmals eine besondere Dringlichkeit.

  • Just This Is It: Dongshan and the Practice of Suchness / Taigen Dan Leighton
    “What a delight to have this thorough, wise, and deep work on the teaching of Zen Master Dongshan from the pen of Taigen Dan Leighton! As always, he relates his discussion of traditional Zen materials to contemporary social, ecological, and political issues, bringing up, among many others, Jack London, Lewis Carroll, echinoderms, and, of course, his beloved Bob Dylan. This is a must-have book for all serious students of Zen. It is an education in itself.” —Norman Fischer, author of Training in Compassion: Zen Teachings on the Practice of Lojong “A masterful exposition of the life and teachings of Chinese Chan master Dongshan, the ninth century founder of the Caodong school, later transmitted by Dōgen to Japan as the Sōtō sect. Leighton carefully examines in ways that are true to the traditional sources yet have a distinctively contemporary flavor a variety of material attributed to Dongshan. Leighton is masterful in weaving together specific approaches evoked through stories about and sayings by Dongshan to create a powerful and inspiring religious vision that is useful for students and researchers as well as practitioners of Zen. Through his thoughtful reflections, Leighton brings to light the panoramic approach to kōans characteristic of this lineage, including the works of Dōgen. This book also serves as a significant contribution to Dōgen studies, brilliantly explicating his views throughout.” —Steven Heine, author of Did Dōgen Go to China? What He Wrote and When He Wrote It “In his wonderful new book, Just This Is It, Buddhist scholar and teacher Taigen Dan Leighton launches a fresh inquiry into the Zen teachings of Dongshan, drawing new relevance from these ancient tales.

    Das Buch Shunryû Suzuki ist der wohl bedeutendste Zen-Meister der Neuzeit. Sein Wirken hinterließ eine tiefe Erinnerungsspur im Bewußtsein aller Menschen, die eine echte und freie spirituelle Erfahrung suchten. Der »alte Meister« tat seine Botschaft mit unerbittlicher Konsequenz, aber auch mit ergreifender Warmherzigkeit kund. Glanzpunkte spiritueller Inspiration waren seine täglichen Darlegungen der Lehre vor den Schülern. Ganz aus dem Geiste des Zen geboren, ergaben sie sich in der Regel spontan und ohne vorheriges Konzept. In diesem Buch sind sie in ihrer ursprünglichen Form wieder- gegeben. Suzukis kauzige Weisheit, seine verständliche, bisweilen provozierende Art, die Menschen wachzurütteln und auf den Weg der Erleuchtung zu führen, sind einzigartig und unverwechselbar. Der Autor Shunryû Suzuki (1904 bis 1971) wurde in jungen Jahren in seinem Heimatland Japan buddhistischer Mönch, später Tempelpriester. Sein welt- weites Wirken als spiritueller Lehrer begann 1959, als er als Meditations- lehrer nach Amerika ging. In San Francisco gründete er das erste Zen- Zentrum des Westens, später das legendäre Zen-Kloster Tassajara in den kalifornischen Bergen. Der Rôshi (»alte Meister«), wurde zu einem geistigen Mittelpunkt der blühenden kulturellen Szene der 60er-Jahre an der West- küste Amerikas. Zu seinen Schülern und Verehrern gehörten berühmte Künstler und Prominente, vor allem aber auch ungezählte junge Menschen, die sich nach einem Leben sehnten, in dem innere Werte und spirituelle Ziele wieder eine Rolle spielten. Shunryû Suzuki SEID WIE REINE SEIDE UND SCHARFER STAHL Das geistige Vermächtnis des großen Zen-Meisters Herausgegeben von Edward Espe Brown Aus dem Englischen von Stephan Schuhmacher WILHELM HEYNE VERLAG MÜNCHEN Die amerikanische Originalausgabe erschien 2002 unter dem Titel »Not Always So« im Verlag HarperCollins Publishers in New York, USA.
