Meditation has developed from a New Age novelty into a powerful tool for alleviating suffering in the modern world. The book shares profound insights on meditation and the mind from the heart of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and reveals some of the very latest scientific evidence showing meditation's potential to benefit a wide range of people in surprising ways.

Once a symbol of the counterculture, meditation is now a household word, routinely discussed in the media, used by the advertising industry to promote all kinds of products and lifestyle choices, and practiced in its various forms--both spiritual and secular--by millions of people across the planet.

Ask the pioneering contributors to this book where they think all of this will lead, and they describe a not-too-distant future in which meditation is practiced as a matter of course in schools, hospitals, hospices, retirement homes, offices, jails, and households around the world--not in the name of any particular religion or belief system, but simply because it is good for us. The one who put meditation on the map 2,500 years ago, the Buddha himself, would no doubt be very happy indeed.

The Future of Dharma in the West

Few could be better placed to comment on Buddhism and its future than Sogyal Rinpoche, one of today's most well-known meditation masters and author of the groundbreaking book The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying.

In The Spirit of Buddhism Sogyal Rinpoche draws on his twenty-five years of experience teaching in the modern world to reflect on some of the major issues surrounding the coming of Buddhism to the West. How will Buddhism adapt and find a place in Western society? How can the full power and benefit of these ancient teachings be accessed today? And how can practitioners be trained and supported? Sogyal Rinpoche discusses the vital role of the mind in health, the effects of training the mind in meditation, and the ultimate healing wrought through a personal experience of the mind's very nature. He also gives priceless advice on how to survive on the spiritual path, where, perhaps more than anywhere else, it is crucial to unmask the everyday delusions and misunderstandings that can otherwise dominate our whole lives.

Traleg Kyabgon

The Seventeenth The Seventeenth Karmapa

An Introduction to Its Philosophy and Practice

One of the clearest introductions to the teachings and philosophies of the three main schools of Buddhism: Theravada, Mahayana, and Tibetan.

This comprehensive guide to the Buddhist path is as accessible as it is complete. Traleg Kyabgon breaks the teachings down conveniently into the three traditional "vehicles," while never letting us forget that the point of all the Dharma is nothing other than insight into the mind and heart. Along the way he provides vivid definitions of fundamental Buddhist concepts such as compassion, emptiness, and Buddha-nature and answers
common questions such as:

- Why does Buddhism teach that there is "no self"?
- Are Buddhist teachings pessimistic?
- Does Buddhism encourage social passivity?
- What is the role of sex in Buddhist tantra?
- Why is it said that samsara is nirvana?
- Does it take countless lifetimes to attain enlightenment, or can it be achieved in a moment?
