"Spiritual practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better,” teaches Pema Chodron. “It is,” she says, “about befriending who we are already.” When we embrace this attitude, the walls of isolation, depression, and anger begin to crumble—and in its place feelings of love, compassion, joy, and equanimity shine forth.
Here are Pema Chödrön’s definitive teachings on the Buddhist practice called the “Four Limitless Ones”—a practice that helps us recognize and grow the seeds of love, compassion, joy, and equanimity already present in our hearts. In this comprehensive 8-CD program, Pema leads us step-by-step through the Four Limitless Ones practice. She offers four guided meditations, entertaining anecdotes, and helpful question-and-answer sessions that allow us to bring about genuine love and joy in our lives. The course is a wonderful way for those already somewhat familiar with Pema’s teaching to go deeper, but it’s also a perfect for beginners—no prior knowledge of Buddhism is required.

Advice on Dying And Living a Better Life, CD
By: Dalai Lama
|
|
Our Price: $30.00

“Everyone dies, but no one is dead”, goes the Tibetan Saying. It is with these words that Advice on Dying takes flight. Using a seventeenth-century poem written by a prominent scholar-practitioner, His Holiness the Dalai Lama draws from a wide range of traditions and beliefs to explore the stages we all go through when we die, which are the very same stages we experience in life when we go to sleep, faint, or reach orgasm (Shakespeare’s “little death”).

Art of Happiness at Work, Audio CDs
By: Dalai Lama, Howard Cutter
|
|
Our Price: $29.95
|
|
|
For the first time since The Art of Happiness, His Holiness the Dalai Lama has teamed up with psychiatrist Howard Cutler to continue the discussion about what makes life meaningful.
In conversations with the Dalai Lama over the past several years, Howard Cutler has asked the questions we all want answered about how to find happiness in the place we spend most of our time -- work. Beginning with the basic need to find satisfaction in our careers, Dr. Cutler questions His Holiness about the nature of work. In psychiatry and according to the Dalai Lama, our motivation for working determines our level of satisfaction. The Art of Happiness at Work explores these three levels of focus:
• Survival: focus on salary, stability, food and clothing
• Career: focus on advancement
• Calling: focus on work as a higher purpose
Dr. Cutler probes the Dalai Lama's wisdom by posing these questions: What is the relationship between self-awareness and work? How does lack of freedom at work affect our levels of happiness? How can we deal with boredom or lack of challenge? Job change and unemployment? How much of our misery comes from our identity being tied up with work?
Dr. Cutler walks us through the Dalai Lama's reasoning so that we may know how to apply his wisdom to daily life. The Art of Happiness at Work is an invaluable source of strength and peace for anyone who earns a living.

Becoming Enlightened, the Dalai Lama returns to the cornerstone of Buddhism, laying out an accessible and practical approach to enlightenment. He first presents the stages of Buddhist practices, which are aimed at increasing a person's spiritual capacity. These reflections are formulated with step-by-step exercises to help listeners expand their perspective, taking into account how present actions influence future experience. This shift to a longer range perspective-from concentrating on the pleasures of the moment to concern for the future-constitutes the first phase in transforming one's spiritual perspective. Becoming Enlightened provides listeners with clear steps to mark their growth and progress, and comes alive through personal anecdotes and intimate accounts of the Dalai Lama's experiences as a life-long student, a meditator, a political leader, and an international figure working with other Nobel Peace Laureates to address crises around the world.

“The Buddha was as mortal as you and I, yet he attained enlightenment and was raised to the rank of an immortal. The miracle is that he got there following a heart as human as yours and mine, and just as vulnerable.” - from the Introduction Bestselling author Deepak Chopra brings the Buddha back to life in this gripping account of the young prince who abandoned his inheritance to discover his true calling. This iconic journey changed the world forever, and the truths revealed continue to influence every corner of the globe today. A young man in line for the throne is trapped in his father’s kingdom and yearns for the outside world. Betrayed by those closest to him, Siddhartha abandons his palace and princely title. Finally alone and face-to-face with his demons, he becomes a wandering monk and embarks on a spiritual fast that carries him to the brink of death. Ultimately recognizing his inability to conquer his body and mind by sheer force, Siddhartha transcends his physical pain and achieves enlightenment. Although we recognize Buddha today as an icon of peace and serenity, his life story was a tumultuous and spellbinding affair filled with love and sex, murder and loss, struggle and surrender. From the rocky terrain of the material world to the summit of the spiritual one, Buddha entertains and inspires - ultimately leading us closer to understanding the true nature of life and ourselves.
