Tibetan Buddhists believe that a conscious awareness of one's own impermanence allows a person to live a happy, fulfilled life. Over the centuries, the Tibetans have developed a wide-ranging literature on death, including inspirational poetry and prose, prayers, and practical works on caring for the dying. This fascinating book presents nine short Tibetan texts. Important writings by the Second, Seventh, and Thirteenth Dalai Lamas and by Karma Lingpa, author of The Tibetan Book of the Dead, are included. It covers topics such as meditation techniques to prepare for death, inspirational accounts of the deaths of saints and yogis, and methods for training the mind in the transference of consciousness at the time of death.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eAuthor: Texts from the 2\u003csup\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003e, 7\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e, \u0026amp; 14\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e Dalai Lama.

If that was a coincidence, it was an auspicious one, for the women who emerged as Buddhist teachers have been among the most articulate of Dharma-communicators—and they remain an indelible feature of Western Buddhism as the practice matures here. The remarkable range of their teaching is showcased in this anthology. The pieces featured touch on the topics that are at the heart of our lives—relationships, uncertainty, love, parenting, food, stress, mortality, living fully, and social responsibility. These approachable, engaging teachings illuminate Buddhist concepts and practices, such as meditation, tonglen, lovingkindness, cultivating gratitude, and deep relaxation. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eThe book contains wisdom from such well-known and respected contemporary Buddhist teachers as Pema Chodren, Ayya Khema, Sharon Salzberg, Toni Packer, Maurine Stuart, Karen Maezen Miller, Khandro Rinpoche, Jan Chozen Bays, Sister Chan Khong, Sylvia Boorstein, Pat Enkyo O’Hara, Darlene Cohen, Joanna Macy, Bonnie Myotai Treace, Tsultrim Allione, Tenzin Palmo, Tara Brach, Joan Sutherland, Carolyn Rose Gimian, Joan Halifax, Charlotte Joko Beck, and many others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eEditor: Andrea Miller\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003ePublisher: Shambhala\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eStyle: Paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eEdition Print: 2014 (First Edition)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eISBN:9781590306239 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003ePages: 289\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Donation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46186610983227,"sku":"4340","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4402\/2331\/files\/Buddhas_Daughters__35358.1441402811.1280.1280.png?v=1767727682"},{"product_id":"women-of-wisdom","title":"Women of Wisdom","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eTitle: WOMEN OF WISDOM\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eDescription: \u003cem\u003eWomen of Wisdom\u003c\/em\u003e explores and celebrates the spiritual potential of all women, as exemplified by the lives of six Tibetan female mystics.

Western scholars and interpreters of the dakini, influenced by Jungian psychology and feminist goddess theology, have shaped a contemporary critique of Tibetan Buddhism in which the dakini is seen as a psychological \"shadow,\" a feminine savior, or an objectified product of patriarchal fantasy.

When the meditator encounters the dakini, living spiritual experience is activated in a nonconceptual manner by her direct gaze, her radiant body, and her compassionate revelation of reality. Grounded in the author's personal encounter with the dakini, this unique study will appeal to both male and female spiritual seekers interested in goddess worship, women's spirituality, and the tantric tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Judith Simmer-Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: Shambhala \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eStyle: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEdition Print: 2001\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9781570629204 \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePages: 404\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46186630742331,"sku":"4846","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4402\/2331\/files\/Dakinis_Warm_Breath__50216.1441407360.1280.1280.png?v=1766517054"},{"product_id":"dakini-power","title":"Dakini Power","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eTitle: DAKINI POWER\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eSecondary Title: Twelve Extraordinary Women Shaping the Transmission of Tibetan Buddhism in the West\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eDescription: What drives a young London librarian to board a ship to India, meditate in a remote cave by herself for twelve years, and then build a flourishing nunnery in the Himalayas?

Western scholars and interpreters of the dakini, influenced by Jungian psychology and feminist goddess theology, have shaped a contemporary critique of Tibetan Buddhism in which the dakini is seen as a psychological \"shadow,\" a feminine savior, or an objectified product of patriarchal fantasy. According to Judith Simmer-Brown—who writes from the point of view of an experienced practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism—such interpretations are inadequate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the spiritual journey of the meditator, Simmer-Brown demonstrates, the dakini symbolizes levels of personal realization: the sacredness of the body, both female and male; the profound meeting point of body and mind in meditation; the visionary realm of ritual practice; and the empty, spacious qualities of mind itself. When the meditator encounters the dakini, living spiritual experience is activated in a nonconceptual manner by her direct gaze, her radiant body, and her compassionate revelation of reality. Grounded in the author's personal encounter with the dakini, this unique study will appeal to both male and female spiritual seekers interested in goddess worship, women's spirituality, and the tantric tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Judith Simmer-Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: Shambhala\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdition Print: 2001\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9781570629204\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages: 404\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50573367607611,"sku":"1035","price":33.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4402\/2331\/files\/Dakinis_Warm_Breath__50216.1441407360.1280.1280_1.png?v=1767910386"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dharmatreasures.com\/collections\/geluk.oembed?page=2","provider":"Dharma Treasures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
