Book excerpt: How can the Buddha's teachings help me? Here? Now? In MY life?A practical, feet-on-the-ground book answering all the questions and misconceptions that arise for people curious about the Buddha's teachings and what they offer in this modern life of ours. For those with little or no knowledge this is a secular introduction. For those already practicing, it's a secular reference book for key concepts and several of the Buddha's important lists. Clear explanations of often-confusing concepts are brought alive with personal examples of the powerful impact of practicing the Buddha's wisdom - the dropping away of stress, angst and upset and the arrival of calm, clarity, energy, joy and open-heartedness. Cutting through the array of orthodox Buddhisms that often confuse beginners, this book strips away the trappings of the cultures through which they came to us, helping us know the Buddha, his core teachings, how meditation and mindfulness fit in, what happened to the teachings after his death, and how to practice them now. As the Buddha did, it puts aside unknowable issues like rebirth which are unnecessary for fully practicing the teachings. Worse, they're a distraction from the very real and practical project at the heart of his wisdom - flourishing in this life. Here. Now.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This young Tibetan lama is calling on spiritual seekers, especially today's youth, to go against the status quo of complacency and invoke the "rebel buddha" within to wake up and instigate inner change. Ethan Nichtern, author of One City: A Declaration of Interdependence, says that "Rinpoche's voice roars with the relaxed confidence of authenticity, and the fierce urgency of now". Dzogchen Ponlop offers an extraordinary introduction to Buddhist philosophy and practice. Extraordinary because it is both completely fresh in its viewpoint and language, and because it's completely authentic to the Buddhist tradition and true to his training as a Tibetan lama.

Book excerpt: The Buddha (Siddhattha Gotama) was one of history's most important and influential thinkers-a visionary whose moral and spiritual ideals have inspired countless men and women throughout the centuries. AWAKENING WISDOM: THE BUDDHA has been written to provide readers with a clear and concise introduction to the essential teachings of the Buddha as they were recorded in the texts of the Pali Canon and other early Buddhist works. Although written primarily for newcomers to the field of Buddhism, this anthology will also be of interest to practicing Buddhists who may never have had the opportunity to read original Buddhist sources. What we discover when we return to these original texts is that the Buddha's insights about the nature of reality, the cause of suffering, and the way to eliminate suffering remain as valid today as when they were developed over 2,600 years ago.
