Buddha Was A Baller by Ryan Stock Pdf

Buddha Was a Baller: How to Awaken the Athlete Inside You is a uniquely insightful collection combining some of the greatest athletes of our time with Buddha's mindset and teachings. Ryan Stock uses his experience as a basketball player and coach conjoined with his findings on his spiritual journey to explain how Buddha would've made the ultimate baller. He was patient, mindful, and strategic--all of the things that can enhance an athlete's playing ability and experience. This book explains how mind over matter will always lead to victory. Buddha was not agile, chiseled, or swift in movement with the ball, but the things he did possess would have allowed him to positively influence and add value to the performance of greats such as Michael Jordan or Lebron James. Typically, athleticism is viewed as a complete physical ability, but often the mental strengths one must have to get ahead on the court is overlooked. As you read Buddha Was a Baller, think about using these strategies on and off of the court for an enhanced experience along with your life journey whether you are an athlete or not.

The Genealogy of Demons by Robert Casillo Pdf

Examines all the works - prose, poems, letters, and radio broadcasts - of Ezra Pound concerning his views on politics, culture, and morality. Contends that Pound's antisemitism and fascism are inherent in his use of language and in his personality. Surveys the historical development of his hatred of the Jews. He described them as ugly, evil, a plague, parasites, and usurers, the root cause of economic distress and cultural stagnation. In his radio broadcasts from Rome he even recommended their extermination, or mass expulsion from the West. His antisemitism exemplified the inner contradictions of his writings and disclosed the incoherence of his psyche and values. Rejects the common view of critics who look upon Pound's antisemitism as innocent, extraneous, or marginal.

If the Buddha Came to Dinner by Hale Sofia Schatz Pdf

If the Buddha came to dinner at your home, what would you serve? Fast food? A frozen meal quickly reheated in the microwave? Chances are you'd feed your honored guest a delicious meal prepared with love and care. But the next time you have dinner, what will you eat? With so much processed food in the marketplace, obesity in adults and children dramatically on the rise, and digestive problems increasingly more common, it's clear that we're facing a serious food crisis in this country. The answer, however, isn't just to go on a diet. Reducing the intake of refined and processed foods and increasing whole foods certainly can improve one's health. But we need more. We need to feed ourselves with a sense of purpose, self-respect, love, and passion for our lives. We need to nourish our spirits. Nourishment isn't a fad diet . . . it's a lifelong journey, and Haléofia Schatz is the ideal guide. Gentle, wise, and humorous, she shows us the way to the heart of nourishment--our own inner wisdom that knows exactly how to feed our whole self. A perfect blend of inspiration and practical suggestions, If the Buddha Came to Dinner includes guidelines for selecting vital foods, ideas for keeping your energy balanced throughout the day, a cleanse program, and over 60 recipes to awaken your palate. Open this book and nurture yourself as never before. You'll be fed in a whole new way.

The Modernist Response to Chinese Art by Zhaoming Qian Pdf

The Modernist Response to Chinese Art is a work of both erudition and sympathy that reveals the root of modernist poets' otherwise baffling interest in and use of Chinese art. Most impressive, perhaps, is the depth of their embrace of it, as Qian has so convincingly documented. --Patricia C. Williams.

Buddha Breaking Up by Stephanee Killen Pdf

The world needs another self-help book like it needs another Reality TV show. At least, that's what I would have said right up until I found myself in need of something-anything -to pull me through the worst breakup of my life. What do you do when you want to be gracious, pragmatic, and filled with equanimity, but you're so hurt and angry you feel as if you could go around town ramming your car into stationary objects without batting an eyelash? What do you do when your friends and family run out of platitudes and old, tired slogans like, "Time heals all wounds" and "Better to have loved and lost..."? (Slogans which, incidentally, make you want to scoop out your frontal lobe with a melon baller.) This is the stuff that drives us to the very edge of annihilation. At least, it feels that way. It feels like a very real obliteration of the self. But this breakdown can be the worst thing that's ever happened to you, or it can be the best thing for precisely this moment in your life. Buddha Breaking Up is a modern-day spiritual guide for how to embrace dramatic, life-altering change and use it as a means of rediscovering the Self. Combining humor, pop culture, and Zen principles, Part I of Buddha Breaking Up explores the science of falling in love, provides useful tools for riding out the heartbreak-including how to handle social networking and other technology designed for liberal applications of self-torment-and offers unique and practical techniques for moving through the lowest depths of the shattering. Part II, "The Bodhicitta of Breaking Up," illuminates methods for battling the wounded ego, dealing with anger, creating better relationships, and finally, loving and valuing yourself so you can reach a place of acceptance and grace in your new life.

Rebel Buddha by Rinpoche Dzogchen Ponlop Pdf

This young Tibetan lama is calling on spiritual seekers, especially today's youth, to go against the status quo of complacency and invoke the "rebel buddha" within to wake up and instigate inner change. Ethan Nichtern, author of One City: A Declaration of Interdependence, says that "Rinpoche's voice roars with the relaxed confidence of authenticity, and the fierce urgency of now". Dzogchen Ponlop offers an extraordinary introduction to Buddhist philosophy and practice. Extraordinary because it is both completely fresh in its viewpoint and language, and because it's completely authentic to the Buddhist tradition and true to his training as a Tibetan lama.
