Unfortunate Destiny focuses on the roles played by nonhuman animals within the imaginative thought-world of Indian Buddhism, as reflected in pre-modern South Asian Buddhist literature. These roles are multifaceted, diverse, and often contradictory: In Buddhist doctrine and cosmology, the animal rebirth is a most "unfortunate destiny" (durgati), won through negative karma and characterized by a lack of intelligence, moral agency, and spiritual potential. In stories about the Buddha's previous lives, on the other hand, we find highly anthropomorphized animals who are wise, virtuous, endowed with human speech, and often critical of the moral shortcomings of humankind. In the life-story of the Buddha, certain animal characters serve as "doubles" of the Buddha, illuminating his nature through identification, contrast or parallelism with an animal "other." Relations between human beings and animals likewise range all the way from support, friendship, and near-equality to rampant exploitation, cruelty, and abuse. Perhaps the only commonality among these various strands of thought is a persistent impulse to use animals to clarify the nature of humanity itself--whether through similarity, contrast, or counterpoint. Buddhism is a profoundly human-centered religious tradition, yet it relies upon a dexterous use of the animal other to help clarify the human self. This book seeks to make sense of this process through a wide-ranging-exploration of animal imagery, animal discourse, and specific animal characters in South Asian Buddhist texts.

Originating in India, Mahayana Buddhism spread across Asia, becoming the prevalent form of Buddhism in Tibet and East Asia. Over the last twenty-five years Western interest in Mahayana has increased considerably, reflected both in the quantity of scholarly material produced and in the attraction of Westerners towards Tibetan Buddhism and Zen. Paul Williams’ Mahayana Buddhism is widely regarded as the standard introduction to the field, used internationally for teaching and research and has been translated into several European and Asian languages. This new edition has been fully revised throughout in the light of the wealth of new studies and focuses on the religion’s diversity and richness. It includes much more material on China and Japan, with appropriate reference to Nepal, and for students who wish to carry their study further there is a much-expanded bibliography and extensive footnotes and cross-referencing. Everyone studying this important tradition will find Williams’ book the ideal companion to their studies.

This collection offers a challenge to any simple understanding of the role of images by looking at aspects of the reception of image worship that have only begun to be studied, including the many hesitations that Asian religious traditions expressed about image worship. Written by eminent scholars of anthropology, art history, and religion with interests in different regions (India, China, Japan, and Southeast Asia), this volume takes a fresh look at the many ways in which images were defined and received in Asian religions.

Korea has one of the most diverse religious cultures in the world today, with a range and breadth of religious practice virtually unrivaled by any other country. This volume in the Princeton Readings in Religions series is the first anthology in any language, including Korean, to bring together a comprehensive set of original sources covering the whole gamut of religious practice in both premodern and contemporary Korea. The book's thirty-two chapters help redress the dearth of source materials on Korean religions in Western languages. Coverage includes shamanic rituals for the dead and songs to quiet fussy newborns; Buddhist meditative practices and exorcisms; Confucian geomancy and ancestor rites; contemporary Catholic liturgy; Protestant devotional practices; internal alchemy training in new Korean religions; and North Korean Juche ("self-reliance") ideology, an amalgam of Marxism and Neo-Confucian filial piety focused on worship of the "father," Kim Il Sung. Religions of Korea in Practice provides substantial coverage of contemporary Korean religious practice, especially the various Christian denominations and new indigenous religions. Each chapter includes an extensive translation of original sources on Korean religious practice, accompanied by an introduction that frames the significance of the selections and offers suggestions for further reading. This book will help any reader gain a better appreciation of the rich complexity of Korea's religious culture.

"Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium" ay ang huling resulta ng aking 17-taong paglalakbay sa pagbabagong Kundalini pagkatapos ng buo at matagal na paggising noong 2004 na permanenteng nagpalawak ng aking kamalayan. Pagkatapos makaranas ng kumpletong visual upgrade na nagbibigay-daan sa akin na masaksihan ang Holographic na kalikasan ng mundo araw-araw, alam kong kakaiba ang nangyari sa akin. Kaya't para sa susunod na bahagi ng aking buhay, nagpasya akong gamitin ang aking regalo at italaga ang aking sarili sa pag-aaral ng agham ng di-nakikitang mundo ng enerhiya kung saan ako ay malapit na konektado habang nagpapaunlad ng mga tamang kasanayan sa wika upang maipahayag ang aking mga natuklasan nang komprehensibo. Ang paggising sa Kundalini ay bahagi ng misyon ng iyong Kaluluwa sa Earth. Ang pinakalayunin nito ay i-optimize ang iyong toroidal energy field (Merkaba) at gawing isang Being of Light, na nagbibigay-daan sa Interdimensional na paglalakbay sa pamamagitan ng kamalayan. Ang pagkakaroon ng naaangkop na kaalaman sa lugar na ito ay maaaring magbigay ng kapangyarihan sa iyo na kontrolin ang iyong Espirituwal na Ebolusyon at matupad ang iyong kapalaran upang maipagpatuloy mo ang iyong paglalakbay sa mga Bituin sa iyong susunod na buhay. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit ko sinulat ang librong ito. "Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium" ang lahat ng kailangan mong malaman sa paksa ng Kundalini, kabilang ang epekto ng proseso ng Ascension sa anatomy ng tao at ang papel na ginagampanan ng nervous system, kung paano i-unlock ang buong potensyal ng iyong utak at gisingin ang kapangyarihan ng iyong puso , at kung paano gamitin ang mga pamamaraan ng Spiritual Healing tulad ng Crystals, Tuning Forks, Aromatherapy, at Tattvas, upang mapataas ang vibrations ng iyong Chakras. Ang isang malaking bahagi ng libro ay nakatuon sa pilosopiya at pagsasanay ng Yoga (na may Ayurveda), kabilang ang isang listahan ng mga Asana, Pranayamas, Mudras, Mantras, at mga pagmumuni-muni, at ang kanilang mga tagubilin para sa paggamit. Tinatalakay ko rin nang detalyado ang proseso ng paggising at pagbabago ng Kundalini, kabilang ang permanente at bahagyang paggising, Lucid Dreaming, Siddhis (psychic powers), Out-of-Body Experiences, ang papel na ginagampanan ng pagkain, tubig, sustansya, at sekswal na enerhiya sa panahon ng pagsasama, at pinakamataas na kaganapan sa pangkalahatang proseso ng pagbabagong-anyo. Dahil ako ang scientist at laboratoryo sa isa, ang aklat na ito ay naglalaman ng lahat ng aking kaalaman at karanasan na nakuha sa aking Espirituwal na paglalakbay, kabilang ang mga mahahalagang pagninilay-nilay na aking binuo habang nakatagpo ng Kundalini energy stagnations at blockages. Panghuli, dahil natulungan ko ang maraming Kundalini na gumising sa mga tao sa paglipas ng mga taon na "nangakapa sa dilim" na naghahanap ng mga sagot, isinama ko rin ang kanilang mga pinakakaraniwang tanong at alalahanin. "Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium" ay isang masinsinang at advanced na paglalahad sa Kundalini na kailangang basahin para sa sinumang interesado sa paksa at sa kanilang Espirituwal na paglago.
