Eight Step Recovery

From Community Highlights on Wed, 12 Feb, 2014 - 00:00
Vimalasara speaks on the importance of loving oneself as a part of recovery from addiction as an introduction to her new book, co-authored with Paramabandhu, entitled 'Eight Step Recovery - Using the Buddha's Teachings to Overcome Addiction'. She goes on to discuss the life conditions that she and Paramabandhu have emerged from, and how those energies came together and inspired the writing of the book. Outlining the eight steps, Vimalasara demonstrates that, while the book was mainly written for those in recovery, it is in some way for everyone. The talk is followed by a question and answer session.

From Community Highlights on Wed, 12 Feb, 2014 - 00:00
Week one of a 21-day course in meditation to help with recovery. This course accompanies the book 'Eight Step Recovery: Using the Buddha's Teachings to Overcome Addiction' by Paramabandhu and Vimalasara.

Each meditation in this series is about 15 minutes long. It's a bite-sized length, great if you find it hard to make time or if you struggle with longer meditations. The meditations cover a wide range of topics including mindfulness, loving-kindness, ethics, wisdom and mantras. All the meditations have some background music which can help you to stay focused on the subject of meditation.

Budismo y la dimension trascendente

From Centro Budista de Valencia on Wed, 12 Feb, 2014 - 00:00
Más allá de la economia y el crisis que vamos sufriendo hace tiempo, la actualidad espanol y mundial no da tregua. Las desgracias y las polemicas van sucediendo sin fin, hasta el punto de que pueda parecer que la realidad politica y social que vivimos sea la unica realidad.

Pero conviene reconocer y no olvidar otra realidad, una dimension de la vida que conviene relucir para ayudarnos a descubrir el ser humano como un ser espiritual, abierto a la trascendencia.

Como contempla el budismo esta dimension trascendente, que lugar tiene en la vida de un budista y por que es importante desvelarlo?
