An unlikely duo—Professor Peter Singer, a preeminent philosopher and professor of bioethics, and Venerable Shih Chao-Hwei, a Taiwanese Buddhist monastic and social activist—join forces to talk ethics in lively conversations that cross oceans, overcome language barriers, and bridge philosophies. The eye-opening dialogues collected here share unique perspectives on contemporary issues like animal welfare, gender equality, the death penalty, and more. Together, these two deep thinkers explore the foundation of ethics and key Buddhist concepts.

Im sechsten Band der erfolgreichen Reihe macht sich der kleine Buddha viele Gedanken um das Thema Frieden. Anders als sonst bricht er diesmal nicht zu einer großen Reise auf, sondern erkundet seine Nachbarschaft, macht kleinere Ausflüge und bekommt viel Besuch unter seinem großen alten Bodhi-Baum. Statt den Frieden in der Ferne zu suchen, sieht er sich im Hier und Jetzt um und versucht Antworten zu finden auf die drängendsten Fragen.

Legend has it that more than a thousand years ago an Indian Buddhist monk named Bodhidharma arrived in China. His approach to teaching was unlike that of any of the Buddhist missionaries who had come to China before him. He confounded the emperor with cryptic dialogues, traveled the country, lived in a cave in the mountains, and eventually paved the way for a unique and illuminating approach to Buddhist teachings that would later spread across the whole of East Asia in the form of Chan—later to be known as Seon in Korean, Thien in Vietnamese, and Zen in Japanese.

The reflections presented here are the offspring of the author's own silence and slow time in caves, forest monasteries, and countless retreats. Written with the wisdom, humility, and humor of one who has taken the time to examine one's self and the nature of the human condition, this new collection of story-poems regards concerns of the experienced meditator.

Drawn from the Buddha’s teachings, contemporary literature, and the author’s own life, this collection of stories, anecdotes, and aphorisms provides inspiration and refreshment for practitioners of meditation.

We spend so much time in pursuit of happiness—trying to purchase it, experience it, meditate our way toward it—but happiness is elusive and doesn’t last. According to the teachings of the Buddha, Cuong Lu writes, “Suffering is not a problem to be solved. It is a truth to be recognized.” Happiness Is Overrated invites us to look deeply at the truths in our lives—not glossing over or denying our suffering—and to focus on the meaning and value already within us.

Wir leben in unruhigen Zeiten, in denen es sich oft anfühlt, als ob uns der Boden unter den Füßen weggezogen wird. Das, worauf wir uns immer verlassen haben, ist plötzlich verschwunden oder verändert sich. Dabei sind es gerade diese Veränderungen, die unser Leben prägen: Geburt, Krankheit, Tod, Heirat, Scheidung, eine neue Beziehung, Beginn oder Ende eines Lebensabschnitts. Solche Umbrüche verlangen uns viel ab, selbst wenn sie erwünscht werden, und manche davon sind beängstigend und erscheinen zutiefst bedrohlich.

Del mismo modo en que las nubes oscurecen por momentos la capacidad iluminadora del sol, las emociones y aflicciones del cuerpo y de la mente —la ofuscación, el deseo ansioso, la insatisfacción, el rencor, el miedo o la envidia— pueden alterar temporalmente la esencia de lo que somos en...

Quante volte ci sentiamo vittime di problemi e di un destino di fronte a cui sembriamo impotenti. È difficile comprendere e accettare il dolore, quando bussa alla nostra porta. Al contrario, è facile anestetizzare i sintomi del male con diversivi e palliativi. Finché quel dolore apparentemente rimosso ritorna puntuale, spesso più forte di prima. Eppure esiste una strada meno battuta. Quella della consapevolezza di sé, della bellezza, dell'amore, per la quale l'arte del kintsugi è di ispirazione ed esempio.
