Life with Full Attention
Don't live on automatic pilot--live life with full attention.
The Journey and the Guide
- Train your mind to be healthy and calm through learning from the life of the Buddha.
The Crumb Road
Maitreyabandhu's thematically varied debut collection includes poems of spiritual transcendence as well as meditations on love, memory, and sexuality. Sometimes comic, often elegiac, the poems convey the pleasures and terrors of childhood as well as the mystical world of fable. For Maitreyabandhu - a Buddhist teacher and member of the Triratna Buddhist Order for over twenty years - The Crumb Road is an image for the unreliability of memory, and for the vital thread of human value that connects us to the spiritual world.
Journey and the Guide
The journey starts with your mind, particularly when you begin to look into the truth of things. What you find in the guide, the Buddha, is an individual with a 'fit', happy mind. To get fit, you need to work on becoming a happy, healthy human being. You can then begin to open up to the mystery of things, to Enlightenment itself. Maitreyabandhu takes you on the journey with practical week-by-week exercises, focusing on cultivating mindfulness, simplifying your life and knowing yourself.
After Cézanne
After Cézanne is a sequence of 56 poems exploring the life and work of the post-impressionist painter Paul Cézanne, with 26 full colour reproductions of his paintings. Reimagining his friendships with Zola and Pissarro, his impact on Matisse and Picasso, Maitreyabandhu celebrates Cézanne's work in poems at once tender, urgent and amused.
Queer Dharma
Over 35 writers are featured in this pioneering book discussing how they integrate being gay and their spirituality as Buddhists.
The Weather Wheel
In this, her boldest collection to date, Mimi Khalvati takes the weather, the seasons and the passage of night and day as the ground on which she draws her emblems of human life and love. Restricting herself in each poem to sixteen lines, set in couplets, Khalvati plays kaleidoscopic variations on this form, the lyric falling differently each time, yet the book as a whole retaining a powerful coherence. As the scene shifts from London to the Mediterranean to the Canaries, the poems gain resonance from each other with cumulative intensity, spinning connections across scale and distance. The Weather Wheel is a radiant celebration of the living world despite the loss that lies at the book's heart.
It's Not Out There
Most of us are always looking outside ourselves for something. But this something, this ‘it’, is not out there. ‘It’ is within us. In 'It’s Not Out There', Buddhist teacher and mentor, Danapriya, shows you how to stop looking outside yourself for happiness and fulfilment. He explains how to uncover the fertile ground of your own potential, so you can live the life you are here for.
Mind in Harmony
'It's not our bank balance, looks, social status or popularity that determines how happy, free and fulfilled we are in life. Finally, what really counts is our state of mind. Subhuti helps us to identify what's going on in our mind, and see clearly what's helpful and what will end in tears.' Vessantara. 'This is a refreshing approach to the classical Abhidharma material, relentlessly experiential and eminently practical.' Andrew Olendzki
Not about Being Good
