Description

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A DETAILED GUIDE TO DISCOVER BUDDHISM? THEN KEEP READING... What is Buddhism? Buddhism, which cannot be absolutely cataloged, can be confusing, especially if one comes from Christianity, the Jewish, or Muslim religions (not to mention other numerous doctrines). Indeed, we can find difficult new concepts of Buddhism such as karma, rebirth, or emptiness, and the practice of meditation. Above all this, the presentation of Buddhism through different traditions can vary more or less, so reading differing information can be a little confusing. That said, Buddhism can be briefly presented as a combination of philosophy, religion, lifestyle, psychology, and mental training. More precisely, it can be described as a true science of the mind. It is in any case, a multifaceted discipline to cover (a fully dedicated life would not be enough)! And as it has been over the years, the best method to inculcate the numerous teachings would be to hear the teachings of authentic masters - read a particular topic and meditate for a while before tackling another. Why? Simply because, unlike the academic approach, all matters have direct consequences for our own lives. The same way the study, reflection, and meditation are important, we also need to find out whether the teachings are right for us. Buddhism shouldn't be accepted based on convictions, but it should be accepted based on how it touches us in the depths of our being. Do not be impatient with the numerous questions that will inevitably come to mind. This is rather a good sign! This book covers the following topics: - Core Concept - What is Buddhism - The History - Teaching of Buddhism - Karma and Rebirth - Reincarnation - The practice of Buddhism - Mindfulness Meditation Techniques and Self-Healing Meditation - A Day in the Life of a Buddhist - The Four Noble Truths - Zen Buddhism ...And much more The starting point of the Buddhist faith is the so-called Four Noble Truths. First on the list of the truths is that life is marked by suffering. The second truth says that suffering would be caused by three mental poisons. These poisons include greed, hatred, and delusion. The third truth is based on the presumption that future suffering cannot arise by avoiding the causes. In other words, putting aside greed, hatred, and delusion lead to a happy life. The fourth truth says that avoiding suffering or inducing happiness through the exercises of the Noble Eightfold Path can be found. The segments of the Eightfold Path are: Right Understanding, Right Intention, Right Speech, Right Practice, Right Livelihood, Right Mindfulness, Right Action, and Right Meditation.
