Whether you’ve been practicing for two years or twenty, Buddhadharma is your ideal source for deepening your understanding of Buddhism. Here’s just some of what’s new on the site:
To Rescue A World — Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi on the shift that transformed his loving-kindness practice, allowing him to truly extend it toward all beings — even those he might have once considered neutral or even hostile.
The newest Buddhadharma Deep Dive: Emanations of Avalokitesvara. Also known by Guan Yin, Chenrezig, Kanzeon, and other epithets, Avalokitesvara is the bodhisattva who “hears the cries of the world” and responds with limitless compassion — and inspires Buddhist practitioners the world over to try and do the same. Featuring pieces by Kay Larson, Ejo McMullen, Lama Döndrup Drölma, and more.
How Buddhist Abhidharma Practice Mitigates Aversion, Craving, and Suffering — Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche shares Abhidharma practices that can guide you toward inner freedom, compassion, and wisdom, as explained in his new manual, Stainless Prajna: Stages of Meditation on the Treasury of Abhidharma. Also included is a short breathing/meditation practice.
And dharma-book lovers shouldn’t miss Buddhadharma’s ongoing book coverage, featuring Constance Kassor’s reviews of new titles, like Paranormal States: Psychic Abilities in Buddhist Convert Communities as well as excerpts of the books reviewed so you can get a taste of them for yourself. You’ll find all these right on the Buddhadharma homepage.
