Download Transmission: Receiving the Living Wisdom of Spiritual Teachers AudioBook Free
The surprise of spiritual awakening - from one heart to some other. What is transmitted from a spiritual teacher to a student? The possibilities of love and freedom, of moving into a joyful heart and soul. Extraordinary spiritual educators empower us, pointing us towards our own awakening. Within their presence, we can have the features of enlightenment somewhat than just reading about them, and we are inspired to see in a fresh way. With Transmission, writer and teacher Jack Kornfield stocks eight periods of in-depth teachings illuminating the student-teacher romance. Via a treasure trove of personal testimonies about the Dalai Lama, Chögyam Trungpa, Dipa Ma, Ajahn Chah, and other masters, we see how teachers embody the countless areas of the jewel of enlightened consciousness - including humor, self-control, humility, joyousness, uncanny perspicacity, and unfathomable compassion - and how we, too, can totally awaken these features in ourselves. Checking out such issues as devotion, the sensitive heart and soul of sadness, meditation, and patience, Jack reveals the energy of opening the guts to a true spiritual tutor as well as the potential pitfalls and challenges of the teacher-student romance. With warmth, humor, and sensible advice-including what to do if there are no spiritual educators near your home, Transmission opens choices for anyone to deepen, practice, and awaken.
