The nature of our heart is such that whenever it clings and grasps there is agitation and confusion. First it might wander over there, then it might wander over here. When we come to observe this agitation, we might think that it’s impossible to train the heart and so we suffer accordingly. We don’t understand that this is the way the heart is. There will be thought and feelings moving about like this even though we are practicing, trying to attain peace. That’s the way it is.

When the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara was engaged in the practice of the deep Prajnaparamita, he perceived that there are the five Skandhas; and these he saw in their self-nature to be empty. "O Sariputra, form is here emptiness, emptiness is form; form is no other than emptiness, emptiness is no other than form; that which is form is emptiness, that which is emptiness is form."

History has produced many great figures, but none in this present cycle or time as impressive and memorable as that of Siddhattha Gotama, the Sakyan prince who became the world’s greatest spiritual guide. He was unique as a personality and unique as a teacher. There have been countless Enlightened Ones before him, and there will be more, as long as samsara endures, but he is the only one of whom we have actual historical knowledge, and his life has been a source of wonder and inspiration for more than 20 centuries. It continues to be so today.

Mainstream perceptions about what it means to be Buddhist in America often whitewash and invisibilize the diverse, inclusive, and intersectional communities that lie at the heart of American Buddhism. Be the Refuge is both critique and celebration, calling out the erasure of Asian-American Buddhists while uplifting the complexity and nuance of their authentic stories and vital, thriving communities. Drawn from in-depth interviews with a pan-ethnic, pan-Buddhist group, Be the Refuge is the first book to center young Asian-American Buddhists' own voices.

The following version of The Dhammapada is based upon a 19th-century translation from F. Max Müller’s The Sacred Books of the East (Clarendon Press, 1881). This adaptation replaces masculine pronouns and references with the feminine, providing a text that speaks directly to women in the female voice. No longer do women have to infer that a text is meant to be inclusive when reading. It now addresses women directly.

For over 2,500 years, the teachings of Buddhism have guided spiritual seekers, philosophers, and everyday people who want more from life. You’re probably already familiar with some Buddhist concepts, such as “meditation” and “karma”. But, what about “Buddhahood” and “the 10 worlds?” Ideas like these are unfamiliar to the Western mind-set, making the language of Buddhism difficult for outsiders to understand.

Zen is neither a religion nor philosophy, but a way of liberation - a process of finding in self, opposed to ceremony or doctrine, the path to wisdom. Learn to develop “Detached Mind” - a way of viewing life in which you stop reacting to negativity. Zen also teaches you to recognize and accept what cannot be changed and to rise above resistance out of intelligence, not repression.

Miguel’s realistic. He knows it’ll never be all sunshine and peaches. And yet, he is (for the most part) at peace with the world and with himself. It shocks even him sometimes. But he’s come to see the interconnectedness of all things, the beauty of life...even the parts that suck. Each short chapter ends with a hands-on practice that the listener can put into action right away - and each practice offers a distilled “TL;DL” takeaway point.
