Absorption in No External World: 170 Issues In Mind-Only Buddhism
By: Jeffrey Hopkins
Our Price: $59.95
Sale Price: $47.96
You Save $11.99!

This stand-alone book is the final volume of a trilogy on Mind-Only that Hopkins composed over the last twenty-two years. Here Hopkins presents opinions on crucial issues from twenty-two commentaries on Dzong-ka-ba's The Essence of Eloquence, considered by his followers to be so challenging that it is called his steel bow and steel arrow, hard to pull but powerful when one succeeds. The careful and intense analysis with which these scholar-yogis probe these 170 issues over time opens a door into patterns of thought that constitute the environment of the text. Hopkins' lively style draws the reader into the drama, stimulating the reader's metaphysical imagination.

Artists, scientists, spiritual leaders and economists gathered at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam in September, 1990 to explore the emerging paradigm of a holistic world view and the implications for a global economy. The 5-day conference - Art meets Science and Spirituality in a changing Economy - was inspired by influential German artist, Joseph Beuys, and French Fluxus artist, Robert Filliou, who felt that artists have a responsibility to inspire a broader vision of our changing world. After the death of Beuys and Filliou, Dutch artist and writer Louwrien Wijers manifested this unique event, calling it “a mental sculpture”. This video series is drawn from the conference and from interviews with the participants at their homes and workplaces throughout the world.

An Extraordinary Collaboration Between Scholars and Western Psychologists, Neuroscientists, and Philosophers

It also provides antidotes of astonishing psychological sophistication -- which are now being confirmed by modern neuroscience. With new high-tech devices, scientists can peer inside the brain centers that calm the inner storms of rage and fear. They also can demonstrate that awareness-training strategies such as meditation strengthen emotional stability and greatly enhance our positive moods.
