On numerous occasions throughout the world, sacred texts and material objects have appeared miraculously to sages and saints. Among the most remarkable of these revelatory traditions is the terma tradition of Tibet. In this tradition, termas, or treasures, are hidden by buddhas and other realized beings to be rediscovered at the appropriate moment by realized masters who have the mystical vision necessary to see them. Sometimes the termas are hidden in such unlikely places as a like, the sky, or even a disciple’s mind. These hidden teachings manifest at unpredictable times and places when sentient beings are in need of their wisdom.

Properly used, the mantra is an effective instrument for dispelling the ignorance on which our anxious life is founded. It can lead the practitioner to the realization of the true nature of mind. It is like a key that brings the mind into harmony with subtle levels of awareness and reopening avenues of communication that otherwise remain closed. Introduced by Tarthang Tulku to the west in 1969, this mantra is said to be especially beneficial for these troubled times, for it has great power to calm the tensions and anxieties so common to our age. In this book Padmasambhava explains the benefits that come from inviting the Vajra Guru Mantra into your spiritual life.

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.

She clears away fears, overpowers negative emotions, and enables all beings to reach enlightenment. She has special resonance as a source of female spiritual wisdom. Tibetans of all schools and traditions recite the verses on which this commentary is based. Focused contemplative meditation in relation to the myriad aspects of Tara works to transform the practitioner's mind into those enlightened qualities and mind states that Tara represents. Sought-after teachers throughout the West for over twenty-five years, Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche and his brother Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche illuminate the practice of the Praises to the Twenty-one Taras with humor and wisdom. The explanations cover progressively more subtle levels from basic Buddhism through the Inner Tantras and culminate with Dzogchen. Interspersed with lively stories about Tara, the authors explain the physical conditions for practice, the outer and inner meanings of the text itself, and give solutions for problems that may emerge as practice progresses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eAuthor: Khenchen Palden Sherab and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003ePublisher: Snow Lion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eStyle: Paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eEdition Print: 2007\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eISBN: 9781559392877\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003ePages: 242\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46186627924283,"sku":"2230","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4402\/2331\/files\/Taras_Enlightened_Activity__19815.1441406841.1280.1280_1.png?v=1766516610"},{"product_id":"dakinis-warm-breath","title":"Dakini's Warm Breath","description":"\u003cp\u003eTitle: DAKINI'S WARM BREATH\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSecondary Title: The Feminine Principle in Tibetan Buddhism\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDescription: The primary emblem of the feminine in Tibetan Buddhism is the dakini, or \"sky-dancer,\" a semi-wrathful spirit-woman who manifests in visions, dreams, and meditation experiences. 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?

We’re then introduced to the buddhas of our world and eon—three of whom have already lived, taught, and passed into transcendence—before examining in detail the fourth, our own Buddha Shakyamuni. Butön tells the story of Shakyamuni’s past lives and then presents the path the Buddha followed (the same that all buddhas must follow). After the Buddha’s story, Butön recounts three compilations of Buddhist scriptures and then quotes from sacred texts that foretell the lives and contributions of great Indian Buddhist masters, which he then relates, concluding with the tale of the eventual demise and disappearance of the Buddhist doctrine. The text ends with an account of the inception and spread of Buddhism in Tibet, focused mainly on the country’s kings and early adopters of the foreign faith.

His fresh and encouraging perspective shows us that we have the strength to live with kindness in the midst of the many challenges we face as socially and environmentally conscious beings. Because he sees the world through the lens of the interdependence of all beings, he sees that humans can change social and environmental problems by changing their attitudes and actions. And so, he shows ways that we can change our world by changing ourselves—by examining our own habits of consumption and by being willing to look into how our food reaches our table and how the products we buy are made.

Looking back after ten, twenty, thirty, years—we wonder what we have really accomplished. The process of simply existing is not necessarily meaningful. And yet there is an unlimited potential for meaning and value in this human existence. The Seven-Point Mind Training is one eminently practical way of tapping into that meaning. At the heart of the Seven-Point Mind Training lies the transformation of the circumstances that life brings us, however hard as the raw material from which we create our own spiritual path. The central theme of the Seven-Point Mind Training is to make the liberating passage from the constricting solitude of self-centeredness to the warm kinship with others which occurs with the cultivation of cherishing others. This Mind Training is especially well-suited for an active life. It helps us to reexamine our relationships—to family, friends, enemies, and strangers—and gradually transform our responses to whatever life throws our way.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eAuthor: B.

It includes some of the tradition’s earliest source scriptures, such as the “grand poem” of Āryadeva, and numerous texts by the tradition’s renowned founder, Machik Lapdrön. Kongtrul also brings together the most significant texts on the rites of initiation, empowerments for practice, and wide-ranging instructions and guides for the support of practitioners. Altogether, this quintessential guide to Severance offers vast resources for scholars and practitioners alike to better understand this unique and remarkable tradition—the way of severing the ego through the profound realization of emptiness and compassion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eAuthor: Various authors, Compiled by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Taye\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eTranslator: Sarah Harding\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eIntroduction: H.H.
