Subtle-body practices are found particularly in Indian, Indo-Tibetan and East Asian societies, but have become increasingly familiar in Western societies, especially through the various healing and yogic techniques and exercises associated with them. This book explores subtle-body practices from a variety of perspectives, and includes both studies of these practices in Asian and Western contexts.

The book discusses how subtle-body practices assume a quasi-material level of human existence that is intermediate between conventional concepts of body and mind. Often, this level is...

The people who get under your skin the most can in fact be your greatest teachers. It's not a matter of overlooking differences, as is often taught, but of regarding those difficult aspects of the relationship with curiosity and compassion--for those very differences offer a path to profound connection. Diane Hamilton's practical, reality-based guide to living harmoniously with even your most irritating fellow humans--spouses, partners, colleagues, parents, children--shows that "getting along" is really a matter of...

Representing a new approach to the West’s evolving understanding of Buddhism, The Driftwood Shrine is the first collection of Zen teachings to be based on the poems of great American writers. In reassuring, forthright, and often surprising language, Wolff explains how Emily Dickinson, William Carlos Williams, H.D., Richard Wright, and many other poets enshrined the gentle light of the Buddha’s teaching in their work. Poetry lovers and Zen practitioners alike will find themselves moved toward a penetrating awareness of the realms of spiritual resolve, impermanence, desire,...

The "someone" immersing itself in the nonduality of painting/a picture is presumed to be the mediator in and through which the symbol and the symbolized entwine as nondual foci of entire time.

In this retrospective, covering more than 40 years of his work in the painting experience, Richard Stodart explores the mediator as presence, cognition, archetypal awareness, naked awareness, beauty, the dragon, wisdom, synairesis, the consciousness of abstracting, geniality, luxury, and nonthinking. In the process, discrete pairs of nonduality are engaged, including the foci: duality and...

Earth Breath: Selected Blogs, 2009-2016, is a collection of 60 blogs chosen from a dozen years of blogging on my blogsite, distasiblog.blogspot.com. Unlike many others, my blogs range through a wide variety of subjects, usually responding to contemporary events or books I've read, or the impulse of the moment. Many are political, but many are not. Their overall tenor tends to be critical of current trends and attitudes that I find silly or hypocritical, retrograde or harmful. They also tend to be more carefully crafted than most blogs and more in the nature of little...
