Sacred High City, Sacred Low City: A Tale of Religious Sites in Two Tokyo Neighborhoods
ISBN: 9780195386202 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Sacred High City, Sacred Low City, Steven Heine argues that lived religion in Japan functions as an integral part of daily life; any apparent lack of interest masks a fundamental commitment to participating regularly in diverse, though diffused, religious practices. The book uses case studies of religious sites at two representative but contrasting Tokyo neighborhoods as a basis for reflecting on this apparently contradictory quality. In what ways does Japan continue to carry on and adapt tradition, and to what extent has modern secular society lost touch with the traditional...

Buddhism in the Modern World: Adaptations of an Ancient Tradition
ISBN: 9780195146981 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 287 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The history of Buddhism has been characterized by an ongoing tension between attempts to preserve traditional ideals and modes of practice and the need to adapt to changing cultural conditions. Many developments in Buddhist history, such as the infusion of esoteric rituals, the rise of devotionalism and lay movements, and the assimilation of warrior practices, reflect the impact of widespread social changes on traditional religious structures. At the same time, Buddhism has been able to maintain its doctrinal purity to a remarkable degree. This volume explores how traditional Buddhist...

White Collar Zen: Using Zen Principles to Overcome Obstacles and Achieve Your Career Goals
ISBN: 9780195160031 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. It is said that in traditional Japan the samurai embraced Zen because it helped them to be fearless in adversity, to act quickly and decisively, and to keep focused on their ultimate goal. In White Collar Zen, Steven Heine shows how, by applying Zen principles in our working lives, we can achieve the same results for ourselves.
Heine describes the way Zen embraces two different yet harmonious paths. The Way of the Hermit teaches detachment--the mental clarity you need to view your situation dispassionately and impartially, to perceive who is an ally and who is a competitor, to understand...

Zen Skin, Zen Marrow: Will the Real Zen Buddhism Please Stand Up?
ISBN: 9780195326772 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since Zen Buddhism first captivated the attention of Western seekers the dominant discourse about this sect has been romantic, idealistic, and utopian. The essence of Zen has been described as ineffable, holistic, and promoting social harmony. In recent years, however, some scholars have begun to examine Zen through the lenses of historical and cultural criticism, producing a sharp challenge to the traditional view. These clashing viewpoints are now entrenched in two warring camps, and their exponents talk past each other with virtually no constructive interaction. In this book, Steven Heine...

Like Cats and Dogs: Contesting the Mu Koan in Zen Buddhism
ISBN: 9780199837304 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Koans are dialogues that stand at the center of Zen Buddhist literature and are often used to provoke the "great doubt" in testing a trainee's progress. The Mu Koan consists of a brief conversation in which a monk asks Master Zhaozhou whether or not a dog has Buddha-nature. According to the main version, the reply is "Mu": literally, "No," but implying the philosophical notion of nothingness. This case is widely considered to be the single best- known and most widely circulated koan record of the Zen school that offers existential release from anxiety to attain spiritual illumination. In...

Zen Koans
ISBN: 9780824839741 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" "Does a dog have Buddha-nature?" These cryptic expressions are among the best-known examples of koans, the confusing, often contradictory sayings that form the centerpiece of Zen Buddhist learning and training. Viewed as an ideal method for attaining and transmitting an unimpeded experience of enlightenment, they became the main object of study in Zen meditation, where their contemplation was meant to exhaust the capacity of the rational mind and the expressiveness of speech. Koan compilations, which include elegant poetic and eloquent prose... "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" "Does a dog have Buddha-nature?"
