Book excerpt: Spiritual practice is not some kind of striving to produce enlightenment, but an expression of the enlightenment already inherent in all things: Such is the Zen teaching of Dogen Zenji (1200–1253) whose profound writings have been studied and revered for more than seven hundred years, influencing practitioners far beyond his native Japan and the Soto school he is credited with founding. In focusing on Dogen's most practical words of instruction and encouragement for Zen students, this new collection highlights the timelessness of his teaching and shows it to be as applicable to anyone today as it was in the great teacher's own time. Selections include Dogen's famous meditation instructions; his advice on the practice of zazen, or sitting meditation; guidelines for community life; and some of his most inspirational talks. Also included are a bibliography and an extensive glossary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercising the muscle of your mind to stay aware as you walk through the pressures of life will help anyone reduce the way stress affects our being. The exercise is meditation. Meditation helps us know the difference.Mindfulness allows us to live the difference.Giving up unwanted thoughts may seem awkward at first. And one may think that worry is a normal thing, but worry, fear and doubt are processes of self-hypnosis that influence our subconscious negatively. To let a worrisome thought process go, and replace it with a positive vision, is an amazing transformational process that has always been available to anyone willing to take the leap and begin to exercise the mind's ability to rewire the way it processes information. The art of Visionary Mind Power is nothing more than using our God-given ability to manifest and create in this world we find ourselves. The problem is that we never had an instruction manual that was shown to us when we were born into this world. Because we lack the knowledge of our mind's capabilities, we risk taking this "God-given creating ability" and create undesirable circumstances. These results get conditioned into habits that lead us astray from our purpose, and many end up on paths that lead to confusion. The tools outlined in this book will help anyone get back on track and learn what it means to Think Beyond their Habitual Thinking.The insights and techniques of the mind tools discussed will help you understand and unleash the possibilities of your mind that allow you to open the doors to your God-given purpose. Awaken to the unlimited opportunities we each are offered in our day to day experiences to manifest beyond your wildest expectations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us, especially since 9/11, have become personally concerned about issues of security, and this is no surprise. Security is near the top of government and corporate agendas around the globe. Security-related stories appear on the front page everyday. How well though, do any of us truly understand what achieving real security involves? In Beyond Fear, Bruce Schneier invites us to take a critical look at not just the threats to our security, but the ways in which we're encouraged to think about security by law enforcement agencies, businesses of all shapes and sizes, and our national governments and militaries. Schneier believes we all can and should be better security consumers, and that the trade-offs we make in the name of security - in terms of cash outlays, taxes, inconvenience, and diminished freedoms - should be part of an ongoing negotiation in our personal, professional, and civic lives, and the subject of an open and informed national discussion. With a well-deserved reputation for original and sometimes iconoclastic thought, Schneier has a lot to say that is provocative, counter-intuitive, and just plain good sense. He explains in detail, for example, why we need to design security systems that don't just work well, but fail well, and why secrecy on the part of government often undermines security. He also believes, for instance, that national ID cards are an exceptionally bad idea: technically unsound, and even destructive of security. And, contrary to a lot of current nay-sayers, he thinks online shopping is fundamentally safe, and that many of the new airline security measure (though by no means all) are actually quite effective. A skeptic of much that's promised by highly touted technologies like biometrics, Schneier is also a refreshingly positive, problem-solving force in the often self-dramatizing and fear-mongering world of security pundits. Schneier helps the reader to understand the issues at stake, and how to best come to one's own conclusions, including the vast infrastructure we already have in place, and the vaster systems--some useful, others useless or worse--that we're being asked to submit to and pay for. Bruce Schneier is the author of seven books, including Applied Cryptography (which Wired called "the one book the National Security Agency wanted never to be published") and Secrets and Lies (described in Fortune as "startlingly lively...¦[a] jewel box of little surprises you can actually use."). He is also Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Counterpane Internet Security, Inc., and publishes Crypto-Gram, one of the most widely read newsletters in the field of online security.

Book excerpt: The book examines the value proposition of technology and its relationship with business innovation, social preferences and its role as a mechanism of labour savings or revenue generation. In the same style as his first book, Redefining Financial Services , the author combines empirical knowledge with a historical approach revealing the explicit nature of technological advancement while analysing the implicit impact on the process of business. The book presents the reader with a question: does society shape technology or is technology shaping society?

Book excerpt: A simple guide to Buddhist meditation with easy-to-follow instructions on both sitting and walking meditation, plus insightful reflections on how to live a Buddhist way of life. Initially, Buddhist meditation is a process of freeing the mind of its entanglements, of learning how to undo the knots and getting beyond thinking. When we live with our minds full of thoughts, we don't sense much more than those thoughts; objects are not seen very clearly because the focus of our attention is directed towards what is in the mind rather than what is in front of us. Meditation allows us to see ourselves plainly as we are, as if standing before a large clear mirror. Nothing is hidden. When we do this, it is like waking up from a dream into a new way of life completely free of all self-imposed restrictions and conflicting states of mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cusumano and Nobeoka the bestselling coauthors of MICROSOFT SECRETS, reveal how Toyota and other leading automobile makers achieve remarkable savings and growth by using shared technology and organisational capabilities across multiple projects. THINKING BEYOND LEAN explains how to manage product development more strategically and efficiently, focusing on a concept the authors call "multi-project management". In contrast, most books on product development deal with how to manage products one at a time. The basic idea of multi-product management is to create new products that share key components but to utilise separate development teams that ensure each product will differ enough to attract different customers. Taking up where THE MACHINE THAT CHANGED THE WORLD left off, THINKING BEYOND LEAN will change the way leaders do business now and in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just having positive thoughts or dreams is not enough. You must put those dreams and wishes into action. That's the only way you'll have a chance of having them come true. Drs. Arnold and Barry Fox focus on living a positive lifestyle and seeing the abundant side of life. They offer action-oriented strategies that will assist you in seeing that which is possible and how to attain it. This insightful, inspiring book can stand alone or be read as a sequel to their co-authored book, Wake Up! You're Alive. Both books focus on using action oriented strategies to help you see the positive side of life. When you think positive thoughts, and couple them with action, anything is possible. Topic covered include: * The Patchwork Parable * The Goal is Joy * The Reality of Illusion * Stickitivituity "The Foxes write from long experience in internal medi¬ ̈cine. There is nothing abstract in their book. Its examples are drawn from the experiences of cancer and paralysis patients, Holocaust survivors, bullied kids facing physical challenges, and mothers who have miscarried. These are not the stories of people who landed dream jobs, won lotteries, or found romance. Rather, this book's examples come from the most adverse chapters of life...They promise that if you follow the methods and models in this book, you will place your¬ ̈self in the best possible position to achieve the fullest range of desired results: to recover, to revive yourself, and to experience life in its finest and most noble form." - From the Introduction by Mitch Horowitz

Book excerpt: Praise for Happiness Beyond Thought "Husband, father, scientist, military officer, and senior executive in industry and academia, Gary Weber has led a full and successful worldly life. Throughout all of this, Gary has relentlessly pursued a path of practice and inquiry in order to understand life and achieve enlightenment. It is rare to find one who has reached this goal, and rarer still to find such a one who has been so immersed in worldly life. With this book, Gary has successfully integrated his profound realization with traditional non-dualistic teachings, as well as insights from Zen Buddhism and modern brain research, into a practical path that uses Yoga's time-tested practices of asana, pranayama, chanting and meditation to illumine a path to enlightenment for the modern reader." -Gary Kraftsow, author of Yoga for Wellness and Yoga for Transformation "Gary Weber offers a treasure chest of practices for the serious practitioner seeking liberation. On your own journey towards awakening, savor these simple, easy to follow practices culled from Weber's study with his primary teacher Ramana Maharshi, his on-going exploration of Zen meditation practice, and the life-enhancing results of his experiments on the laboratory floor of his yoga mat." -Amy Weintraub, author of Yoga for Depression
