Though born a prince surrounded by luxury, Gotama Buddha was transformed by realizing that no one escapes suffering. He found, and for the remainder of his life taught, the answer to the great question: Is there a way out of this cycle? This unique biography presents the oldest authentic record of the Buddha's life and revolutionary philosophy. Vivid recollections of his personal attendant Ananda and other disciples bring the reader into the Buddha's presence, where his example offers inspiration and guidance on the path to freedom. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e  \u003cp\u003eCheckout our complete \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/store.pariyatti.org\/Ebooks_ep_49-1.html\"\u003eeBook catalog here\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  ","brand":"Nanamoli, Bhikkhu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback + (Free eBook - ePub\/Mobi\/PDF)","offer_id":42108764618846,"sku":"771410","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebook (ePub\/Mobi\/PDF)","offer_id":42108768747614,"sku":"766977","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3677\/0142\/files\/771419_1.jpg?v=1760547621"},{"product_id":"1379","title":"Connected Discourses of the Buddha","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClick Google Preview button to look inside the book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/books\/previewlib.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e \u003cscript type=\"text\/javascript\"\u003e GBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup('ISBN:0861713311'); \u003c\/script\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis is a complete translation of the Samyutta Nikaya, containing important suttas (Discourses of the Buddha) on such key Buddhist concepts as the Four Noble Truths, dependent origination, the seven factors of enlightenment, and the Noble Eightfold Path.

Goenka from a ten-day course of Vipassana meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e'Liberation can be gained only by practice, never by mere discussion', S.N. Goenka has said. A course in Vipassana meditation is an opportunity to take concrete steps towards liberation. For this reason, in a Vipassana course the emphasis is always on actual practice. No philosophical debates are permitted, no theoretical arguments, no questions that are unrelated to one's own experience. As far as possible, meditators are encouraged to find the answers to their questions within themselves. The teacher provides whatever guidance is needed in the practice, but it is up to each person to implement these guidelines: one has to fight one's own battle, work out one's own salvation. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eGiven this emphasis, still some explanation is necessary to provide a context for the practice. Therefore every evening of a course Goenkaji gives a 'Dhamma talk', in order to put into perspective the experiences of that day, and to clarify various aspects of the technique. These discourses, he warns, are not intended as intellectual or emotional entertainment. Their purpose is simply to help meditators understand what to do and why, so that they will work in the proper way and will achieve the proper results.   It is these talks that are presented here in condensed form. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe eleven discourses provide a broad overview of the teaching of the Buddha. The approach to this subject, however, is not scholarly or analytical. Instead the teaching is presented in the way that it unfolds to a meditator: as a dynamic, coherent whole. All its different facets are seen to reveal an underlying unity: the experience of meditation. This experience is the inner fire that gives true life and brilliance to the jewel of the Dhamma.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eOther Languages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eYou can browse the \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003erelated items\u003c\/span\u003e below for this title in other languages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eeBook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis title is also available as an eBook bundle (ePub, Mobi, PDF).
