The Three Boys: And Other Buddhist Folktales from Tibet (Latitude 20 Books (Paperback))

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A virtuous young woman journeys to the Land of the Dead to retrieve the still-beating heart of a king, a wily corpse-monster tricks his young captor into setting him free, a king falls under a curse that turns him into a cannibal, a shepherd who understands the speech of animals saves a princess from certain death. These are just a few of the wondrous tales that await readers of this collection of Tibetan Buddhist folktales. Fifteen stories are told for modern readers in a vivid, accessible style that reflects a centuries-old tradition of storytelling in the monasteries and marketplaces of Tibet. As a child growing up in a Buddhist monastery, Yeshi Dorjee would often coax the elderly lamas into telling him folktales. By turns thrilling, mysterious, clever, and often hilariously funny, the stories he narrates here also teach important lessons about mindfulness, compassion, and other key Buddhist principles. They will delight readers of all ages, scholars and students, Buddhists and… [detailed...]

David Whyte
The Three Marriages: Reimagining Work, Self and Relationship

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Drawing from his own experience and the lives of some of the world?s great writers and poets, David Whyte brings compelling insights to our three most important commitments? to another, to our work, and to ourselves?to frame a complete picture of a satisfying life. David Whyte knows there are three crucial relationships, or marriages, in our lives: the marriage or partnership with a significant other, the commitment we have to our work, and the vows, spoken or unspoken, we make to an inner, constantly developing self. In The Three Marriages, the bestselling author, poet, and speaker argues that it is not possible to sacrifice one relationship for the others without causing deep psychological damage. Too often, he says, we fracture our lives and split our energies foolishly, so that one or more of these marriages is sacrificed and may wither and die, in the process impoverishing them all. Whyte looks to a different way of seeing and connecting these relationships and prompts us to… [detailed...]

Indeed, the gentleman is flabbergasted by their silliness. `I shall set out traveling,` he announces, `and when I can find three sillies who are even sillier than you three, I?ll comeback and marry your daughter.` Could three sillier sillies exist in all the land?

Their hopes for a life more suited to their cultivated tastes and sensibilities provide a touching counterpoint to the relentless flow of compromising events in the real world.

It is reprinted here from a standard text with updated transliteration of character names and additional explanatory footnotes. Издание на английском языке. [detailed...]
