Visions of Awakening Space and Time: D=ogen and the Lotus Sutra By Taigen Dan Leighton 2007 | 206 Pages | ISBN: 019532093X | PDF | 2 MB As a religion concerned with universal liberation, Zen grew out of a Buddhist worldview very different from the currently prevalent scientific materialism. Indeed, says Taigen Dan Leighton, Zen cannot be fully understood outside of a worldview that sees reality itself as a vital, dynamic agent of awareness and healing. In this book, Leighton explicates that worldview through the writings of the Zen master Eihei D=ogen (1200-1253), considered the founder of the Japanese S=ot=o Zen tradition, which currently enjoys increasing popularity in the West. The Lotus Sutra, arguably the most important Buddhist scripture in East Asia, contains a famous story about bodhisattvas (enlightening beings) who emerge from under the earth to preserve and expound the Lotus teaching in the distant future. The story reveals that the Buddha only appears to pass away, but actually has been practicing, and will continue to do so, over an inconceivably long life span. Leighton traces commentaries on the Lotus Sutra from a range of key East Asian Buddhist thinkers, including Daosheng, Zhiyi, Zhanran, Saigyo, My=oe, Nichiren, Hakuin, and Ry=okan. But his main focus is Eihei D=ogen, the 13th century Japanese S=ot=o Zen founder who imported Zen from China, and whose profuse, provocative, and poetic writings are important to the modern expansion of Buddhism to the West. D=ogen's use of this sutra expresses the critical role of Mahayana vision and imagination as the context of Zen teaching, and his interpretations of this story furthermore reveal his dynamic worldview of the earth, space, and time themselves as vital agents of spiritual awakening. Leighton argues that D=ogen uses the images and metaphors in this story to express his own religious worldview, in which earth, space, and time are lively agents in the bodhisattva project. Broader awareness of D=ogen's worldview and its implications, says Leighton, can illuminate the possibilities for contemporary approaches to primary Mahayana concepts and practices.

The Power of Three: How to achieve your goals by simply doing three things a day by Lisa M. Dietlin English | May 3, 2014 | ISBN: 1499169639 | 64 pages | AZW3 | 1,66 MB People often say to me, "You are so lucky." What I tell them is that yes, it might appear I am lucky. What has in fact been going on is a purposeful and strategic plan of action. I share that I achieve my goals by doing a little bit each day to get to where I want to go. It is similar to saying you want to take a trip to the other side of the continent or world. Most of us can't just say we want to do this and then, as if by magic, it happens. Most of us have to plan the trip - determining the timeframe in which it will take place, schedule the time off from work, save money, purchase travel books, etc. We often find ourselves doing something each day towards this goal. I have noticed, though, that when it comes to achieving our dreams and personal goals many of these skills - so natural in planning things such as vacations - don't happen naturally. This book is the result of years of working in a style and with a system that I thought everyone used. It was only when giving presentations and speeches did I begin to see the impact these "tips" were having. Throughout my talks, I would offer these ideas as "tools" to be put in the listener's "toolbox" so that they would have them readily accessible in the future. What always amazed me was that after my presentation was done, many leaders and managers would approach me saying, "I'm taking these ideas back to my business and having everyone do them...and oh, by the way, do you have this in writing so I could share it?" I would sheepishly answer that I did not - that it was simply what I did every day to achieve my goals whether in the political world, nonprofit arena or in my consulting business practice. Over the years, the requests came often enough for me to be prompted to write this book. In short, The Power of Three provides helpful ideas on where to start, how to do the 'hard' things, the best way to network, when to seize opportunities and how listening just might be the key to it all. Through reading and implementing these seemingly simple strategies, your goals and dreams, both personal and professional, will be attained.  The Power Presenter: Techniques, Style, and Strategy to Be Suasive 2nd Edition by Jerry Weissman English | 2021 | ISBN: 0136933742 | 324 Pages | EPUB | 3 MB  Daniel Moeckli, Helen Keller, Corina Heri, "The Human Rights Covenants at 50: Their Past, Present, and Future" English | 2018 | ISBN: 0198825897 | PDF | pages: 401 | 30.1 mb Half a century ago, on 16 December 1966, the UN General Assembly adopted the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). While the adoption of the two UN human rights covenants was celebrated all over the world, their 50th anniversary has received very little attention from the international community. The present book marks this anniversary by taking stock of the first half-century of the existence of what are probably the world's two most important human rights treaties. It does so by reflecting on what the covenants have achieved (or failed to achieve) in the years that have passed, by determining and comparing their current influence in the various regions of the world, and by assessing their potential roles in the future.
