ISBN: 9783907070628 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The old Masters of Meditation, Zenji, liked to talk to their followers and disciples in similes and metaphors.

The immediate contact between master and disciple, as well as the... The old Masters of Meditation, Zenji, liked to talk to their followers and disciples in similes and metaphors.

ISBN: 9780415500081 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines the concepts of power, wealth and women in the important Mahayana Buddhist scripture known as the Gandavyuha-sutra, and relates these to the text's social context in ancient Indian during the Buddhist Middle Period (0-500 CE).

The Undefeated Mind: On the Science of Constructing an Indestructible Self
ISBN: 9780757316425 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Legions of self-help authors rightly urge personal development as the key to happiness, but they typically fail to focus on its most important objective: hardiness. Though that which doesn't kill us can make us stronger, as Nietzsche tells us, few authors today offer any insight into just how to springboard from adversity to strength. It doesn't just happen automatically, and it takes practice. New scientific research suggests that resilience isn't something with which only a fortunate few of us have been born, but rather something we can all take specific action to develop. To build...Legions of self-help authors rightly urge personal development as the key to happiness, but they typically fail to focus on its most important obje... |

Emptiness Appraised: A Critical Study of Nagarjuna's Philosophy
ISBN: 9780415515214 / Angielski / Miękka / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Emptiness means that all entities are empty of, or lack, inherent existence - entities have a merely conceptual, constructed existence. Though Nagarjuna advocates the Middle Way, his philosophy of emptiness nevertheless entails nihilism, and his critiques of the Nyaya theory of knowledge are shown to be unconvincing.

ISBN: 9780415525343 / Angielski / Twarda / 1512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In today s globalized world, religious diversity has become one of the strongest challenges to the self-understanding of any major religious tradition, provoking two interdependent questions.

While the Abrahamic religions are often accused of a predominantly intolerant and exclusivistic attitude to the religious other, Eastern religions and Buddhism in particular enjoy the reputation of being naturally tolerant, absorbing, and even pluralistic towards competing faiths. Some... In today s globalized world, religious diversity has become one of the strongest challenges to the self-understanding of any major religious tradit... |
