Что такое медитация? Учитесь медитировать.

Что такое медитация? Учитесь медитировать.

From Буддийская община «Триратна» on Thu, 16 Apr, 2020 - 22:37

Что такое медитация, или буддийская медитация? Как правильно медитировать?

Учитесь медитировать с помощью Суваннавиры, члена буддийского ордена “Триратна”, который уже двадцать лет практикует медитацию и 10 лет преподает её в Париже и в Москве.

Я буду объяснять для начинающих: поза для медитации и что надо делать во время медитации.

Также будет полезно, если вы регулярно медитируете и практикуете с другими.

Это - видео урок медитации “осознанное тело”, которая является подготовкой для других практик буддийской медитаций - таких, как “осознанное дыхание” и “метта бхавана”. Практика помогает в духовном развитии,...

The Order Sadhana practice

From Order Dharma (test space) on Thu, 16 Apr, 2020 - 17:25

The following sadhana was composed spontaneously by Dharmachari Vessantara at Il Convento, Tuscany, in 1986 after the public ordination of 11 Dharmacharis. It is designed to be performed collectively, by Order members at Order gatherings, but would be equally suitable for individual Order members who wished to strengthen their feeling for the Order, and to reaffirm and deepen their Going For Refuge. 

The practice is designed as a sadhana and it has also been adapted to perform as a Sevenfold Puja.

From Padmaloka Retreat Centre on Thu, 16 Apr, 2020 - 14:52

“For the caravan of famished beings wandering the road of existence, hungry for the enjoyment of happiness, this is a feast of happiness offered as refreshment to all who come”.

In his third talk on the Bodhicaryavatara, Padmavajra explores themes from the third chapter, ‘The Full Acceptance of the Bodhicitta’, in which Shantideva describes the wonder of the arising of the Bodhicitta, the profound selflessness of the Bodhisattva Vow and the pride of being born as a Buddha son.

In this Dharmabyte, Satyajyoti offers this personal talk introducing the realm of the titans and her transformation of competitiveness into appreciation.

Excerpted from Three Personal Talks: Realms of the Wheel where Satyajyoti,...
