The jhānas are eight progressive altered states of consciousness that can be identified with the aspect of the Buddha’s Eightfold Path called Right Concentration. Training in concentration leads to these states, each of which yields a deeper and subtler state of awareness than the previous one. The jhānas are not in themselves awakening, but they are a skillful means for stilling the mind in a way that leads in that direction, and they are attainable by anyone who devotes the time and sincerity of practice necessary to realize them.

Zen Master Tales collects never-before-translated stories of four prominent Zen masters from the Edo period of Japanese history (1603–1868). Drawn from an era that saw the “democratization” of Japanese Zen, these stories paint a picture of robust, funny, and poignant engagement between Zen luminaries and the emergent chonin or “townsperson” culture of early modern Japan. These masters affirmed that the essentials of Zen practice could be conveyed to all members of Japanese society in ordinary speech, including even comic verse and work songs.

«Apriamo gli occhi al suono della sveglia, ascoltiamo musica in macchina o sui mezzi pubblici, mentre dal taschino o dalla borsa esce spesso il suono del cellulare. In città risuonano i clacson delle automobili, le sirene della polizia, in casa lo stereo e il televisore. Siamo circondati da un turbinio di rumori.

El Bardo thodol, más conocido en Occidente como El libro tibetano de los muertos, es una guía de instrucciones para los moribundos y los muertos que, según la creencia del budismo tántrico del Tíbet, permite alcanzar la iluminación durante el periodo inmediato posterior a la muerte y por algunos días más, a fin de evitar renacer e ingresar nuevamente al samsara, pues se considera que la muerte dura 49 días y después de ello sobreviene un renacimiento en el ciclo de la reencarnación.

From the best-selling author of the biography of Shunryu Suzuki (Crooked Cucumber), comes a memoir and oral history of Tassajara—a monastery founded in 1967 by Shunryu Suzuki, abbot of the San Francisco Zen Center.

Mudita, Wheel Publicaton No. 170, contains several short essays, one by the editor, Ven. Nyanaponika, and three by lay practitioners on one of the lesser known and too-little practiced sublime states of mind.

How is it to be practiced, and what are the implications of mudita on the spiritual path? These essays address those questions.

The Gay Science (The Joyful Wisdom) is one of Nietzsche's greatest books. His wonderfully fertile mind roams over mankind, his thoughts, his emotions, his behaviour and his weaknesses with remarkable clarity, with insight - but also with humour!In this work are 383 separate paragraphs, some short, some long, but all singular observations - the epitome of his famous aphoristic style.
