Nyanaponika, and three by lay practitioners on one of the lesser known and too-little practiced sublime states of mind. Mudita, usually translated "sympathetic joy", was designated one of the brahma-viharas by the Buddha, one of the sublime, noble states of mind. How is it to be practiced, and what are the implications of mudita on the spiritual path? These essays address those questions. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sophia Ojha.

    Karma yoga, also called karma-marga, is one of the several spiritual paths in Hinduism, one based on the "yoga of action". To a karma yogi, right work done well is a form of prayer. Of the paths to spiritual liberation in Hinduism, karma yoga is the path of unselfish action. It teaches that a spiritual seeker should act according to dharma, without being attached to the fruits or personal consequences. Karma yoga, states the Bhagavad Gita, purifies the mind. It leads one to consider dharma of work and the work according to one's dharma, doing god's work and in that sense becoming and being "like unto god Krishna" in every moment of one's life.  Take a listen to the Karma Yoga, narrated beautifully by Grant Finley. ungekürzt.

    Osho bashes another basic assumption of our society: Loving others is good, loving yourself is egotistical and selfish. He asserts that all love is based on self-love. Only when you love yourself, can you love someone else. If you don't love yourself your love for others is only a pretense. Every child has been conditioned not to love himself but to love others. That is impossible. Only a very deeply selfish person can be unselfish. Being self-centered is basic. A self-centered person seeks to maximize his happiness. The happier you become, the more you will seek to share that happiness with others. That is the only way to be happy. Osho then talks about why a happy person is the most dangerous person in the world. Language: English. Narrator: OSHO.

    Christians often focus so much on being loving and unselfish that they forget their own limitations, allowing others to take advantage of their kindness. Authors Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend offer Biblically-based ways to take control of your life and set healthy boundaries with parents, spouses, children, friends, coworkers, and even yourself. Using the case history of a fictional woman named Sherrie, Drs. Cloud and Townsend illustrate her growth from living with virtually no limitations to applying boundaries with others in her life. In the process, they answer many difficult questions, teaching us how to set limits but still be loving, identify our legitimate boundaries, and say no without feeling guilty. Boundaries is an essential guide for Christians who want to increase their assertiveness without sacrificing the ideals of the Scriptures. Language: English.

    It is June 13th, 1940. Terry, seven, and his brother Jack, eleven, stand in a crowd of children on the platform at Welling station. Wearing labels, carrying gas masks and small suitcases, they are evacuees, awaiting the train which will take them to their unknown destination and new lives. In the tiny Cornish hamlet of Doublebois, the woods and river become their playground; rabbit-catching and night-fishing their new pastimes. But it is the railway, above all, which delights them. It is the richest of childhoods, full of colour, humour and the unselfish love that Uncle Jack, a Welsh ex-miner, and his wife, Auntie Rose, offer without reserve to the two young strangers. And despite fierce rivalry between local kids and the ‘vackies’, village life seems wonderful to the boys. Warm-hearted and moving, Kisses on a Postcard is a vivid and intimate portrait of a neglected part of our wartime history; a compelling and uplifting memoir of growing up in an extraordinary time. ungekürzt.
