Field of Blessings: Mahayana Buddhist Approaches to Healing By Ji Hyang Padma In contemporary American culture, we have enhanced awareness of Buddhism by bringing it into dialogue with science.  Jon Kabat- Zinn, who is almost single-handedly responsible for this development, has brought about a cultural renaissance with regard to the inclusion of mindfulness in the healing arts. However, there are other healing aspects of the path, the deep rituals of traditional Buddhist healing practices that may also serve to revitalize our Western healing monoculture. Tibetan Medicine, particularly, has evolved into its own art & science, woven together with Mahayana Buddhist practice.

Understanding Devotion And Life’s PurposeIndian philosopher, Jiddu Krishnamurti, once famously said: Only those who’ve never truly loved, ask me questions about life’s purpose. Why does living need a purpose other than its mere being? Are we not worthy, as is? Krishnamurti wondered, “Is it because of emptiness that we need to identify some grander purpose to happen outside of us, to fulfill us?” Defining a purpose is a product of the mind, where as beingness is just a natural state of the soul. The purpose can be found in our inner state of being, or rather, our own ability to enrich our inner experience. When was the last time you were in love? How did it feel? Didn’t everything seem meaningful? When you are living in gratitude, do you even question life’s purpose? And isn’t gra...

How did Valmiki write the Ramayana?| Glories of RamacharitmanasaInterpretations of the Title-Ramacharitmanas The word Manas has another interpretation as explained by Sage Valmiki.

This river has great significance as it emerged from the eyes of Sri Rama.Story of Sarayu RiverWhen Sri Rama appeared in front of Brahma, tears of love started flowing through His eyes.
