Depends so much on how one sees from where one is
It's OK, but you can do better. The book, is divided into two parts.The first deals with more "conventional" Buddhist truths which addressrenunciation from worldly attachments, abandonment of delusions anddisturbing emotions such as pride and anger, cultivation of compassion andso forth. It is here that this book is at its most compelling and mostenjoyable to read. The second part deals with "ultimate" Buddhist truth,arguments in favor of the Madhyamika philosophy that all phenomena,although they appear, are empty of inherent existence. This philosophy isextremely profound and subtle. Only a few books in English really do itjustice, and this, unfortunately, isn't one of them. I am not sure if thefault is Aryadeva's, Gyel-tsap's, Geshe Sonam Rinchen's or thetranslator's, but readers sincerely interested in plumbing the depths ofthe Madyamika would do better in my opinion to study some of the currentlyavailable translations and commentaries of Nagarjuna's and Chandrakirti'sworks. Unfortunately, there are no other English translations andcommentaries on this work by Aryadeva which are in print at this time.
a delightful and beneficial fruit for the mind In the" 400 stanzas", Aryadeva, anancient indiansaint, famous scholar of Nagarjuna, explains, how to regard life out ofBuddhist insight. His compressed verses show a radical wit, provoking thereaders' contradiction, making them think about the actual meaning. Tounfold the contents of Aryadeva's mental seeds, comments and explainingstories have been added by following Indian and Tibetan Buddhistpersonalities, which are a pleasure to read, due to their poetical, funnyand colourful descriptions of how to consider apparently common situationsin a refreshing new way. Geshe Rinchen La rounds up each chapter,summarizing the essentials, clearing them from thenarrative ornaments toemphasize their advice for the present time. 'Though dealing with highlycomplex philosophical subjects, this book is earth-bound as life itself. Itfascinates in combining a thousand years of Buddhist spirit, serving toimprove human life through changing ones own mental influence on it. ... Read more |

Good start; makes valid points; opens the door
Prescription for the 21st Century The encounter with unconscious forces can be risky. Many Western teachers have recommended depth psychology and a thorough analysis as a prerequisite to the journey. At a minimum, it would help everyone to gain familiarity with unconscious contents and how to deal with them. Failing that, encountering deep feelings unexpectedly in the experience of daily life, as everyone does at one time or another, can be a disorienting experience. Fear and uncertainty can lead to negative actions or support of irrational idealism leading to failure or destruction of life and relationships, while positive acceptance can lead to transformation, caring, love, and reconciliation. Jungian psychology can prepare one for deity meditation and the rapid path of Vajrayana Buddhism, help smooth out the bumps in the road along the way, and train one for the inevitable life-changing forces encountered at the most unexpected times. Jung's vision is timeless: "Every individual needs revolution, inner division, overthrow of the existing order, and renewal, but not by forcing them on his (or her) neighbours under the hypocritical cloak of Christian (or other religious) love or the sense of social responsibility or any of the other beautiful euphemisms for unconcious urges to personal (or collective) power. Individual self-reflection, return of the individual to the ground of human nature, to his (or her) own deepest being with its individual and social destiny - here is the beginning of a cure for that blindness which reigns at the present hour."

Editorial Review Product Description His Holiness the Dalai Lama's teachings--a beautiful and accessible presentation of the time-honored path to enlightenment--are one of the world's great spiritual treasures. The Joy of Living and Dying in Peace is the third volume in the landmark Libraey of Tibet series.Bringing us closer to the essence of Buddhist teachings, and to his own peerless insight, the Dala Lama offers his thoughts on achieving a meanful life and death.At the heart of his eloquent presentation is this lesson: by cultivating compassion, wisdom, and positive thought and action--in short, by living a good life--we can approach death without fear or regret, and welcome our passage and rebirth.

Volume Three of Three
The Path To Enlightenment The book discusses the principles of Buddhism from the perspective of our natural human fear of our own death.From the Buddhist point of view, we do not have to fear death if we have a secure understanding of the Dharma, the teachings of the Buddha.The reason a good practitioner of these teachings can die peacefully without regret is because his or her human potential is fulfilled. Although we may think that we suffer from such things as natural disasters, biological frailties, human enemies or opportunities lost, our real enemy is our own mind.The path to true happiness is basically to let go of our desires for all these impermanent objects and states of mind.Remove the wanting and you remove the tortures of unfulfilled desires and disappointing outcomes.The real goal in life is to just see things as they are.In this way you can live your life to its full potential and not regret when the end comes. To cultivate this awakening mind, meditation is essential.We must be ever mindful of our disturbing emotions.The mind must be trained and disciplined.But a follower of the Buddha must also act and live his or her life by treating all sentient beings as your friends.Your worst enemies are really your best teachers.Anger is the greatest hindrance to cultivating the spiritual path.It is your enemies who confront you that will test your patience and teach you to be mindful. The title and subject of this book particularly interested me, but I believe that the wisdom of the teacher can be garnered from any of his books.I am always having to catch myself when I begin pondering why someone did not teach me these things when I was younger.Then I try to apply a little of the wisdom I have read here and I realize that I am feeding my mind with the negative emotion of regret rather than just seeing.
Life is not the beginning, death is not the end If you are abuddhist, this little book encapsulates the ideas of living & dying thebuddhist way in a brief yet comprehensive manner.If you are not abuddhist, this little book gives you a glimpse into the philosophy andmindset of the religion in a very personal manner and you don't have to bea buddhist to practice the teaching. ...
