The Prince and the Zombie

The Prince and the Zombie

A prince must capture and bring back to his country a wily zombie--but will the zombie's magical powers prove too great for the prince? In this series of tales, a prince must capture and bring back to his country a zombie who is endowed with magical powers--but in order to succeed, he must keep himself from speaking even one word to the zombie. The zombie is wily, and during the long journey he recounts fascinating tales to the prince, who is carrying him in a sack on his back. Spellbound by the stories, the prince is drawn into making some comment on them. But the very moment he opens his mouth, the zombie escapes, and the prince has to go back to India to catch the zombie all over again. This same scenario occurs over and over, tale after tale, journey after journey--until the prince truly learns his lesson. These zombie stories, known as the Vetalapancavimsati in Sanskrit, are engrossing teaching tales that originated in ancient India but have become popular in the Buddhist culture of Tibet, as well as in other Asian cultures. This Tibetan version of the stories conveys the values of Buddhism, particularly those related to karma (the laws of cause and effect), happiness, and suffering. Through these tales, the reader learns that Buddhism is a path of knowledge that leads to liberation from suffering.

Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche inspired Matthieu Ricard to create this anthology by telling him that "when we come to appreciate the depth of the view of the eight great traditions of Tibetan Buddhism] and also see that they all lead to the same goal without contradicting each other, we think, 'Only ignorance can lead us to adopt a sectarian view.'" Ricard has selected and translated some of the most profound and inspiring teachings from across these traditions. The selected teachings are taken from the sources of the traditions, including the Buddha himself, Nagarjuna, Guru Rinpoche, Atisha, Shantideva, and Asanga; from great masters of the past, including Thogme Zangpo, the Fifth Dalai Lama, Milarepa, Longchenpa, and Sakya Pandita; and from contemporary masters, including the Fourteenth Dalai Lama and Mingyur Rinpoche. They address such topics as the nature of the mind; the foundations of taking refuge, generating altruistic compassion, acquiring merit, and following a teacher; view, meditation, and action; and how to remove obstacles and make progress on the path.
Hirnforschung und Meditation

Hirnforschung und Meditation

Wolf Singer; Matthieu Ricard

SUHRKAMP VERLAG
2013
pokkari
Wolf Singer ist einer der weltweit führenden Hirnforscher. Matthieu Ricard war Molekularbiologe, wurde dann buddhistischer Mönch - und Bestsellerautor. Für dieses Buch treten beide in einen Dialog über die Beziehung zwischen Hirnforschung und Bewußtseinstraining. Sie sprechen darüber, welche mentalen Zustände mit meditativen Praktiken herbeigeführt werden sollen, welche neuronalen Vorgänge diesen zugrunde liegen, und sie fragen, ob regelmäßiges Meditieren zu nachweisbaren Veränderungen von Hirnfunktionen führt. Ihr Buch leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag dazu, den Austausch zwischen Naturwissenschaften und den kontemplativen Wissenschaften anzuregen, denn Buddhismus wird hier als eine "Wissenschaft über den Geist" verhandelt und nicht als eine Religion. Ein Thema, das in der Diskussion zentral behandelt wird, sind die Methoden, mit denen der Geist und menschliche Werte trainiert werden können, zum Beispiel Aufmerksamkeit, Altruismus, emotionale Ausgeglichenheit und Glück. Darüber hinaus sprechen Singer und Ricard über die Langzeitwirkungen solchen Trainings. Die Fähigkeit des Gehirns, sich an veränderte Umstände anzupassen, wird meist im Kontext sich verändernder Außenbedingungen untersucht, aber bei der Meditation kommen die Impulse von innen und sollen eine systematische Veränderung der eigenen mentalen Dispositionen bewirken, und folgerichtig wird die Frage gestellt, ob sich zentrale Fragen über die menschliche Natur überhaupt mit neurowissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen verbinden lassen.

? Glück ist kein Zufall, sondern jeder kann es erlernen?, meint Matthieu Ricard. Es entsteht, wissenschaftlich messbar, aus einem inneren Gleichgewicht von Körper und Geist. Es ist das Resultat eines Reifungsprozesses, der ganz allein von jedem Menschen selbst abhängt. Dazu gehört auch, sich von der Macht negativer Emotionen wie Hass, Neid, Verlangen und Ich-Bezogenheit zu befreien und sich stattdessen von Mitgefühl, Demut und Güte leiten zu lassen, um im Einklang mit sich und der Welt zu leben. Dieser innere Zustand, der nicht von äußeren Umständen abhängig ist, ist der Schlüssel zu lebenslangem, tief empfundenem Glück. Kleine Übungen und Meditationsanleitungen am Ende eines jeden Kapitels weisen einen klaren Weg zu einem glücklicheren Leben.

Der grandiose Dialog zwischen Mönch und Philosoph - zwischen Vater und Sohn Matthieu Ricard wuchs in einer angesehenen Pariser Familie auf, der Vater Philosoph, die Mutter Künstlerin. Nach einer herausragenden Karriere als Molekularbiologe am Institut Pasteur kehrt Matthieu Ricard der Wissenschaft den Rücken, reist nach Indien und wird buddhistischer Mönch. In Der Mönch und der Philosoph begegnet er seinem Vater Jean-Fran?ois Revel. Es entwickelt sich ein aufregender und scharfsinniger Dialog zwischen Abendland und Buddhismus, zwischen rationaler Philosophie und buddhistischer Kontemplativität. Der Vater möchte verstehen: Warum ist sein Sohn Buddhist geworden? Der Leser wird dabei zu den Fragen und Themen geführt, die unser tägliches Denken und Handeln bestimmen, den Grundfragen, wie sie gleichermaßen von westlicher und östlicher Philosophie gestellt wurden: Wer bin ich? Was ist die Welt? Woher kommt die Gewalt? Was ist der Schlüssel zum Glück? Gibt es eine absolute Wahrheit? Vater und Sohn diskutieren und streiten und fast nebenbei stoßen sie vor in die Tiefe der buddhistischen Lebensweisheit und abendländischen Erkenntnis

Jean Francois-Revel, a pillar of French intellectual life in our time, became world famous for his challenges to both Communism and Christianity. Twenty-seven years ago, his son, Matthieu Ricard, gave up a promising career as a scientist to study Tibetan Buddhism -- not as a detached observer but by immersing himself in its practice under the guidance of its greatest living masters. Meeting in an inn overlooking Katmandu, these two profoundly thoughtful men explored the questions that have occupied humankind throughout its history. Does life have meaning? What is consciousness? Is man free? What is the value of scientific and material progress? Why is there suffering, war, and hatred? Their conversation is not merely abstract: they ask each other questions about ethics, rights, and responsibilities, about knowledge and belief, and they discuss frankly the differences in the way each has tried to make sense of his life. Utterly absorbing, inspiring, and accessible, this remarkable dialogue engages East with West, ideas with life, and science with the humanities, providing wisdom on how to enrich the way we live our lives.
