In the Buddhist tradition there are countless deities. These are embodiments of enlightened wisdom that also represent different aspects of the enlightened mind. Using a particular Buddha to meditate with or work withon a daily basis can act as a sacred map for the reader, leading us to experience the healing, compassion, and hope they can bring into our lives.
The Buddhas covered include
the Historical Buddha, Shakyamuni; the Five Dhyani Buddhas; the Purification Buddha; the Healing Buddhas; the Compassionate Buddhas; the Longevity Buddhas; the Mother Goddess; the Wealth Buddhas; and the Buddha of the Future. Each Buddha is introduced with a sumptuous picture and the book includes holy mantras - simple yet powerful practices for the voice - and mudras - sacred hand gestures. Also included are instructions on making tsa tsas (miniature buddhas), mandala offerings, and prayer flags, and guidance on creating your own altar.
This ground-breaking guide is published with the full support of Lama Zopa Rinpoche and is Lilian Too's gift to the Buddha heart within us all. --Ce texte fait référence à une édition épuisée ou non disponible de ce titre.
