William Hart Knihy

Vipassaná-bhávaná, "rozvinutí vhledu", představuje jádro učení Buddhy. Tato stezka k vědomí sebe sama, jak ji vyučuje S.N. Goenka, je mimořádná svou jednoduchostí, absencí jakýchkoli dogmat a především svými výsledky. Techniku meditace vipassana může úspěšně praktikovat kdokoli. Umění žít ukazuje, jak tato technika může člověku pomoci řešit jeho problémy, rozvinout nevyužitý potenciál a vést pokojný a užitečný život. Kniha je založena na přednáškách a článcích S.N. Goenky a byla zpracována pod jeho přímým vedením. Obsahuje příběhy S.N. Goenky a také odpovědi na otázky studentů, které svěžím způsobem doplňují jeho učení. Kurzů vipassany vedených S.N. Goenkou se zúčastnily tisíce lidí nejrůznějšího původu. Pan Goenka, který je nyní již v důchodu, je jako bývalý průmyslník a někdejší vůdce indické komunity v Barmě ojedinělý mezi učiteli meditace. Ačkoli sám žije světským životem, jeho učení si získalo sympatie vážených buddhistických mnichů v Barmě, Indii a na Srí Lance, z nichž někteří se také zúčastnili kurzů pod jeho vedením. Navzdory svému charisma pan Goenka nestojí o to být "guruem" a namísto toho učí každého spoléhat se sám na sebe. Toto je první systematická studie jeho učení v angličtině. William Hart studuje vipassanu již mnoho let. Od roku 1982 vede jako asistující učitel S.N. Goenky kurzy vipassany na západě.

The Ancient Meditation Technique that Brings Real Peace of MindVipassand-bhavand, "the development of insight," embodies the essence of the teaching of the Buddha. As taught by S. N. Goenka, this path to self-awareness is extraordinary in its simplicity, its lack of dogma and, above all, its results. The Vipassana technique can be successfully applied by anyone.Based on the lectures and writings of S. N. Goenka--and prepared under his direct guidance--The Art of Living shows how this technique can be used to solve problems, develop unused potential, and lead a peaceful, productive life. It includes stories by S. N. Goenka, as well as answers to students' questions, that convey a vivid sense of his teaching.S. N. Goenka's Vipassana courses have attracted thousands of people of every background. Unique among teachers of meditation, Goenka is a retired industrialist and former leader of the Indian Community in Burma. Although a layman, his teaching has won the approval of senior Buddhist monks in Burma, India, and Sri Lanka, a number of whom have taken courses under his guidance. Despite his magnetism, he has no wish to be a "guru" --instead he teaches self-responsibility. This is the first systematic study of his teachings to appear in English.
