The Way of the White Clouds: Best books, mystery stories white clouds

The Way of the White Clouds by Lama Anagarika Govinda: Best books, mystery stories white clouds
Lama Anagarika Govinda was one of the last foreigners to journey through Tibet before the Chinese invasion of 1950. A devoted Buddhist and a spokesman for Tibetan culture, Govinda's luminous and candid account is a spectacular and gloriously poetic story of exploration and discovery, and a sensitive and lucid interpretation of Tibetan traditions. Robert Thurman's perceptive new introduction to the volume places Govinda's writings in historical context and opens a new door on understanding Tibet, Buddhism, and the life of a remarkable man who, as Thurman remarks, is "undoubtedly one of the West's greatest minds of the twentieth century, a member of the pantheon that includes Einstein, Heisenberg, Wittgenstein, Solzhenitsyn, Gandhi, and the Dalai Lama."

“True patience is founded on understanding the truth. It is much deeper than mere sufferance of hardship. Patience is a virtue that is based on a profound perception of ultimate reality. At its deepest levels, patience requires no energy because its perception of the truth is complete. When we truly understand that all trials of the phenomenal world are empty and that all phenomenal manifestations are impermanent, we will no longer need to use energy to be patient with them.” --Master Hsing Yun, “Lotus in a Stream”

FORUM POST ACCIDENTALLY DELETED

I accidentally deleted a forum post about practicing Buddhism alone.

A couple of comments were also lost.

This happened because we are getting tons of spam and I was careless while deleting it.

My apologies to the person who posted the topic. Please post it again. I will make doubly-sure it is not deleted.

Thanks for understanding,

Center for American Buddhist Practice Sutra Study & Meditation: San Diego

A Good and Honest Heart

When I travel, the person sitting next to me often asks, “You are a Buddhist? Tell me what Buddhism is.” …I have often asked my teachers , especially my father, His Holiness Mindrolling Trichen Rinpoche, about that. He would always say, “Don’t you see? Gathering the eighty-four thousand teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha in one point: a good heart, and an honest heart.” This is the answer to the question, “What is Buddhism?”

--Ven. Khandro Rinpoche

Please visit www.cfabp.org for a schedule of classes and meditation services starting at 6pm on Tuesdays at the Eye of the Buddha.
