Vipassana Meditation Short Intro

2010-02-02T00:00:00.000-08:00

A short video from www.dhamma.org about the observation of breath and bodily sensations in the technique of vipassana meditation. The entire practice is actually a mental training. Just as we use physical exercises to improve our bodily health, Vipassana can be used to develop a healthy mind. Because it has been found to be genuinely helpful, great emphasis is put on preserving the technique in its original, authentic form. It is not taught commercially, but instead is offered freely. No person involved in its teaching receives any material remuneration. There are no charges for the courses - not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by donations from people who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the opportunity to benefit from it also. Of course, the results come gradually through continued practice. It is unrealistic to expect all problems to be solved in ten days. Within that time, howe ver, the essentials of Vipassana can be learned so that it can be applied in daily life. The more the technique is practiced, the greater the freedom from misery, and the closer the approach to the ultimate goal of full liberation. Even ten days can provide results which are vivid and obviously beneficial in everyday life. All sincere people are welcome to join a Vipassana course to see for themselves how the technique works and to measure the benefits. Vipassana Courses are even being conducted in prisons, with great success and wonderful benefits for the inmates who participate. All those who try it will find Vipassana to be an invaluable tool with which to achieve and share real happiness with others.

We had the great honor of having Shundo Aoyama personally perform our wedding ceremony in 2004. Here is a descripton of her book. It can be found quite easily on line just google "Zen Seeds" Buddhist weddings are not that common in Japan today. They are usually Shinto, western style or Jinzen which means no religion style. Shundo Aoyama is well known in Japan as a writer and lecturer on Buddhism. She is the chief priest of the temple Muryo-ji and of a training temple for female Soto Zen priests. Zen Seeds Shundo Aoyama has written may books in Japanese however this is the only translated book I know of. Shundo Aoyama a female Soto Zen priest writes in plain words about the seeds of enlightenment to be found in everyday life. In this fascinating collection of essays she explains in a clear, engaging style the nature of true happiness, beauty that springs naturally from a compassionate heart, and the joy we can find in life. Combining personal experiences and a knowle dge of Buddhist sacred texts, the author makes Buddhist philosophy accessible to everyone. The result is a truly practical and illuminating guide.

MANJUSHRI-NAMA-SAMGITI : KHENCHEN PENTSE RINPOCHE „HOMAGE TO MANJUGOSHA with great sounding, whose single great Sound in the three worlds is great, sounding through the sky expanse, the best among those who are sounding. VISUAL DHARMAS- Buddhist Teachings for third millenium are touching the Heart of mankind by inspiring introspection of innate Buddha nature, inherent in every being. These are direct Dharma Teachings and they speak to everyone. To EMBED & SPONSOR preparation of Visual Dharmas means to perform 1. enlightened activity as taught by the Buddhas. Wherever this Visual Dharma is played it brings peace, positive energy and wisdom.All Visual Dharmas are empowered with the Sound of Dharmata (tib. Chönyid kyi rang dra). For the reference verse see the verse above. Visual Dharmas must be treated with respect. They are the Heritage of mankind. Reading transmission can be given by advanced Buddhist practitioner /master who understands and is accomplishing th e meaning of the Buddhist text or sadhana. It gives the student precious opportunty to begin with serious study & practice of it. HE Khenchen Padma Tsewang Rinpoche (born 1931 in Kham east Tibet) is accomplished Buddhist Master of the Nyingma Vajrayana Buddhism. We met Rinpoche in Vienna on Autumn equinox in 1997 at the Shambhala center where Rinpoche transmitted important Teachings & initiations of Buddha Padmasambhava. Rinpoche is the most concentrated and energetic Buddhist Master of our times : he taught the Dharma from early morning till late evening almost without interruption! At the end of his Teaching we asked him for the Reading transmission (tib. Lung,) of ancient Buddhist text Manjushri nama samgiti. We also presented him with Slovenian translation of this sacred text. Rinpoche was very happy by seeing the translation and immediately began to recite Jam-pal tsen-jod (Tibetan translation of Manjushri nama samgiti). From this occassion this recording is tak en. Certainly Manjushri nama samgiti and Rinpoche´s Lung accompanied us in following 11 years of our Dharma path. We began to publish Buddhist texts for free distribution thus practicing 1. dharmic activity. The Lung (skt.prana, vital energy) of this sacred text was like the seed sawn in our consciousness. This Visual Dharma is esp. dedicated for the long life of Khenchen Padma Tsewang Rinpoche (Tibet). Rinpoche showed true yogic response because even after 11 hours of constant Dharma teachings he was not tired but full of energy & joyfull. This are also virtues of daily recitation of Manjushri nama samgiti. May the Lotus feet of the glorious guru remain firm upon the earth ! This sacred Buddhist text was written in 6-7 Century in Sanskrit.In 11th Century it was brilliantly translated into Tibetan by Rinchen Zangpo . Jam-pal tsen-jod has importance in all schools of Vajrayana Buddhism as practiced in Tibet and which are now being practiced also on other continents . Manjushri is connected with Speech or teaching of the Dharma. Many Buddhist teachers and masters have Manjushri as their personal meditation deity (tib.Yidam). In Sanskrit liturgy there are XIII Chapters with 173 verses, arranged in four lines (Skt. pada, also meaning foot). Morning raga (Bairaga) played by Ravi Shankar gives a taste of passionate enlightenment in which this sacred Buddhist text was written in ancient India. At the end we present verse from the Summing up : „For the world without protector, longing for the liberation fruit (vimukti phala), there was promulgated this pure and excellent path (margo visuddha) as the method of the net of illussion (mayajalanayoditah). „ May everybody who hear it be soon liberated from samsara.

Buddhism - Pali Chantings {Salutations to Sangha of Blessed}

2010-01-28T08:00:00.000-08:00

These verses are recited to pay homage to the Triple Gem - Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha. These words explain some of the great qualities and virtues pertaining to the Triple Gem. By reciting these words, one can understand the admirable qualities of the Triple Gem and so develop one's confidence in their intrinsic worth. The Buddha himself explained these qualities in many of His Suttas. He also advised his followers to recite these words to be mindful of the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha in times of fear or disturbance, whether arising from external sources or through evil influences so that such disturbances can be vanquished. This is because the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha are free from all kinds of defilements and hindrances such as greed, anger and ignorance. Pali Supatipanno Bhagavato savaka-sangho Ujupatipanno Bhagavato savaka-sangho Ñayapatipanno Bhagavato savaka-sangho Samicipatipanno Bhagavato savaka-sangho Yadidam cattari purisayugani attha purisa-puggala, esa Bh agavato savaka-sangho Ahuneyyo, pahuneyyo, dakkhineyyo, Anjalikaraniyo, anuttaram punnakkhettam lokassa ti English Translation The Sangha of the Blessed One's disciples has entered on the good way; The Sangha of the Blessed One's disciples has entered on the straight way; The Sangha of the Blessed Ones disciples has entered on the right path; The Sangha of the Blessed One's disciples has entered on the proper way; That is to say, the Four Pairs of Men, the Eight Types of Persons; The Sangha of the Blessed One's disciples is fit for gifts, fit for hospitality, fit for offerings and fit for reverential salutation As the incomparable field of merits for the world. Pali Chantings Sangham jivitam yava nibbanam saranam gacchami Ye ca Sangha atita ca Ye ca Sangha anagata Paccuppanna ca ye Sangha Aham vandami sabbada English translations The Sangha of the ages past, The Sangha that are yet to come, The Sangha of the present age, I always pay homage to them. Pali Chan tings Natthi me saranam annam Sangho me saranam varam Etena sacca-vajjena Hotu me jayamangalam English translations No other refuge do I seek; The Sangha is my matchless refuge; By the might of this truth, May joyous victory be mine! Pali Uttamangena vandeham Sangham ca tividhuttamam Sanghe yo khalito doso Sangho khamatu tam mamam English translation With my bows I humbly worship, The Sangha triply unrivalled; If I have done wrong to the Sangha May the Sangha forgive me.
