Freedom from the Known by Krishnamurti

admin — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 13:21:55 +0000

Freedom from the Know by Jiddu Krishnamurti was first published in 1969 and it soon became one of his most read works. From the books intro:
“Man has throughout the ages been seeking something beyond himself, beyond material welfare – something we call truth or God or reality, a timeless state – something that cannot be disturbed by circumstances, by thought or by human corruption.
Man has always asked the question: what is it all about? Has life any meaning at all? He sees the enormous confusion of life, the brutalities, the revolt, the wars, the endless divisions of religion, ideology and nationality, and with a sense of deep abiding frustration he asks, what is one to do, what is this thing we call living, is there anything beyond it?”

Zen in the Art of Archery by Eugen Herrigel

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 21:55:21 +0000

Zen in the Art of Archery by Eugen Herrigel is a classic on Japanese Zen Buddhism and it has been a bestseller for nearly 60 years. Concepts in the book have become fundamental ideas of how Westerners view Zen Buddhism. One example is the idea that a student studies simple tasks year after year at the feet of a master, before being allowed to do more important tasks. The book contains accurate instructions about learning and control, for learning any kind of sport or physical activity. For example, a central idea in the book is that through years of practice, a physical activity becomes effortless, as if the body executes complex and difficult movements without conscious control from the mind. From the book:

“The archer ceases to be conscious of himself as the one who is engaged in hitting the bull’s-eye which confronts him. This state of unconscious is realized only when, completely empty and rid of the self, he becomes one with the perfecting of his technical skill, though there is in it something of a quite different order which cannot be attained by any progressive study of the art.”

The Essence of Tibetan Buddhism by Lama Thubten Yeshe

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 21:26:22 +0000

The Essence of Tibetan Buddhism by Lama Thubten Yeshe consists of three teachings. The first one, “The Three Principal Aspects of the Path,” was given in France in 1982, during an sponsored tour of Europe by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Just before His Holiness’s scheduled teachings at Institut Vajra Yogini, His Holiness manifested illness and asked Lama Yeshe to fill in for a couple of days— to “baby-sit” the audience, as Lama put it. This two-part teaching on three principal aspects of the path is the result. The second teaching, an “Introduction to Tantra,” also in two parts, was given at Grizzly Lodge, California, in 1980. It comprises the first two lectures of a commentary on the Chenrezig yoga method taught by Lama at the request of Vajrapani Institute,
Boulder Creek.

The Urgency of Change by Krishnamurti

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 21:08:32 +0000

The Urgency of Change by Krishnamurti is a series of transcripts from public talks. Jiddu Krishnamurti addresses questions like what is awareness, the meaning of dreams, the existence of God and much more. From the book:

“Nobody can push you out of your trap – no guru, no drug, no mantra, nobody, including myself – nobody, especially myself. All that you have to do is to be aware from the beginning to the end, not become inattentive in the middle of it. This new quality of awareness is attention, and in this attention there is no frontier made by the “me”. This attention is the highest form of virtue, therefore it is love. It is supreme intelligence, and there cannot be attention if you are not sensitive to the structure and the nature of these man-made traps.”

The Philosophy of Spiritual Activity by Rudolph Steiner

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:25:12 +0000

The Philosophy of Spiritual Activity by Rudolph Steiner centers around two problems which are fundamental to the human soul-life. One of these problems concerns the possibility of attaining such insight into human nature that knowledge of man can become the foundation of all human knowledge and experience of life. We often feel that our experiences and the results of scientific investigations are not self-supporting; further experiences or discoveries may shake our certitude. The other problem is: Has man any right to ascribe freedom to his will, or is freedom of will an illusion arising out of his inability to recognize the threads of necessity on which his will depends, just like a process in nature?
