Описание: Santideva`s eighth-century work the Guide to Bodhisattva Practice (Bodhicaryavatara) is one of the crucial texts of the Buddhist ethical and philosophical tradition. This book serves as a companion to this Indian Buddhist classic, illuminating the Guide`s many philosophical, literary, ritual, and ethical dimensions.
Adapted from its original format, published here for the first time, Roger Weir's The Bodhisattva and the Space Age: The Great Idea in Our Time, which blends the ancient Buddhist writings with a modern cosmic understanding, guiding the learner on a journey through time and space.
In The Bodhisattva and the Space Age, you'll explore:
The Awakening of Faith in the Mahayana (Shraddhotpada Mahayana Sutra) - Learn the eight reasons for the creation of the revolutionary text and the shift in Buddhist consciousness from a personal liberation to a universal liberation through the introduction of the goddess Kuan Yin, the bodhisattva of compassion.
The Teaching of Vimalakirti (Vimalakirtinirdesa Sutra) - Discover one of the most famous of the Mahayana Sutras, which tells the story of Yuima (also known as Vimalakirti), a layman whose wisdom surprised and amazed even some of the most famous Buddhas and bodhisattvas in history.
The Accumulation of Precious Qualities (Prajna Paramita Ratna Guna Samcaya Gatha) - The paradise of the Amitabha Buddha is not one of just singing and mindlessness, but one of study and great erudition because the bodhisattva ideal includes omniscience-one must know it all-every bit of it, in all of its ramifications, for all beings to learn.
The Space Age - The modern scientific worldview reveals that there are infinite galaxies in all directions around ours, and from a Buddhist perspective, they are peopled with infinite beings in need of liberation from the cycle of samsara.

Even though hundreds of thousands of people have attended a Kalachakra empowerment, very few actually know how to put the Kalachakra teachings into practice. In this direct and clear commentary on Jetsun Taranatha's classic text "The Divine Ladder," Khentrul Rinpoch reveals the profound methods which have been used by Kalachakra masters for hundreds of years to achieve extraordinary realisations. Through these practices, you will be guided in a step-by-step manner through a process of transformation that allows you to gradually experience your greatest potential in this very lifetime. Drawing on the unbiased wisdom of the lineage masters from the Jonang-Shambhala Tradition, this book provides everything that you will need in order to authentically prepare yourself for entering the completion stage practices of the Six Vajra Yogas.
''What exactly has been lost of the Sacred Vision in what was constructed in Auroville? The 24-metre diameter does not exist; the 15.20m measure of the Ray does not exist; the 15-step entry from below into the floor of the chamber facing north does not exist; Sri Aurobindo's symbol in the Shalagrama does not 'exist'; the translucent Globe does not exist; the stone Pedestal does not exist. Is there anything then of gnostic significance and value in the structure? And even if only one or two items of the Vision have survived - such as the 12 columns - the fundamental feature proper to all great sacred art is absent: its unity. In these matters it is all or nothing. Unfortunately, for disciples and devotees of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, they are left with nothing.
But the Vision itself lives on; its Knowledge has been revealed and preserved. This is the focus of these Chronicles.''
