The Kindness of Others

A Commentary on the Seven-Point Mind Training

By: Geshe Jampa Tegchok

Shantideva pointed out that everything good--every form of happiness, all positive qualities and so forth--comes through the kindness of others. Therefore, the mind devoted to their welfare is like a wish-fulfilling jewel, the source of all happiness and everything good and useful in the world. Just as a farmer who possesses an extremely fertile field, where everything he plants always grows, is very happy to have it and cherishes and takes great care of it, we should feel the same way about other sentient beings--that they are extremely valuable, and cherish and take care of them. "It is interesting that, whether we are Buddhist or not, if we think about the great kindness of all beings it will be evident that all our happiness does indeed depend upon them." In this book, Khensur Rinpoche Geshe Jampa Tegchok explains how we can train our mind away from self-cherishing, the cause of all suffering, and develop compassion, the cause of everything that is good. He bases his explanation on Kadampa Geshe Chekawa’s classic text, The Seven Point Mind Training, which, amongst other things, teaches us how to transform problems into happiness.

Protecting the Lives of Helpless Beings

The Udamwara Lotus Flower

By: Geshe Thubten Soepa

Geshe Thubten Soepa offers a detailed explanation of what Shakyamuni Buddha said about eating meat as presented in the Buddhist sutras of the Hinayana and Mahayana vehicles including tantra. The explanation begins with an extensive look at the various sutras in which the Buddha discusses why Buddhists should not eat animals, includes a question and answer section addressing topics such as tantric practice questions and whether animal owners should neuter their animals and ends with a discussion of why eating meat or otherwise exploiting animals is completely contrary to the core Buddhist practice of compassion. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, read through Geshe Soepa's explanation from cover to cover and said "It is well written. It would be nice if more equally useful texts were written for people to read." This is a must-read from Buddhists who wish to support their practice of and advocate for vegetarianism.

The Magic of Empty Teachers: Quiet Retreat Teachings

By: Geshe Michael Roach

These extraordinary teachings on the spiritual path were given between March 3, 2000 and June 6, 2003, when Geshe Michael Roach engaged in a 3 year silent meditation retreat in the Arizona desert wilderness. In order to fulfill a promise to his students, he came blindfolded to the edge of his retreat boundary to teach. These books are transcripts of those talks, with very little editing, in order to preserve the freshness of his language and the several layers of meaning they convey. Geshe Michael Roach is the first American to pass the rigorous training and exam for the title of Geshe, or Master of Buddhism, after twenty years at Sera Mey Tibetan Buddhist Monastery.
