Hardcover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. Contents: 1. Dogmatics: Questions and Answers. 2. Thomas Marcotty: On the Phurpa Cult. 3. Tibetan Texts: (i) Layout of the Dagger Doctrine. (ii) The Destructive Ritual. (iii) The Most Secret Peerless Quintessence. (iv) The Root Tantra. 4. Acknowledgements. 5. Notes. 6. Sources. This book is first in several respects: for the first time it describes the cult of the ritual dagger Phurpa. This is a secret Tantric doctrine still alive where Mahayana Buddhists live today. For the first time some original Phurpa texts attributed to the great Buddhist teacher Padmasambhava (8th century A. D.) have been translated into a Western language and, again for the first time, the dagger ritual has also been photographed. Therefore, this book sheds some light on a widely unknown side of Buddhism: not the official doctrine demanding renunciation and promising salvation in a life after death but a powerful teaching aiming at people's happiness here and now. …

Phurpa - magisches Dolchritual aus Tibet. Mit Schatztexten zum "Dolchsegen". Eine verborgene Seite der Buddha-Lehre. 23 Fotos, 22 Zeichnungen. Farbige Broschur (Paperback), neuwertig, sauber und frisch, noch eingeschweißt. 108 S. ISBN 3931997006 - Eine auch für Laien verständliche Darstellung des Phurpa-Kultes (auch Phurbu geschrieben) mit Übersetzungen von tibetischen Ritualtexten (Übersetzer: Keith Dowman, Amy Heller, Geshe Loden Sherab Dagyab), sowie umfangreichen Anmerkungen. Mit einer speziellen Bibliographie. - Aus Wikipedia dazu einen engl. Kommentar: The Phurba (Tib., pronunciation between 'pur-ba' & 'fur-pu', alt. transliterations: phurpa, phurbu or phurpu) is a three-sided dagger, peg, stake or nail like ritual implement traditionally associated with Tibetan Buddhism or Bön. The Sanskrit term for phurba is kilaya. The phurba or kilaya is one of many iconographic representations of divine attributes of Vajrayana or Hindu deities, respectively. When consecrated and bound for usage, the phurba are a nirmanakaya manifestation of Dorje Phurba or Vajrakilaya. One of the principal methods of working with the phurba and to actualize its essence-quality is to pierce the earth with it; sheath it; or as is common with shaman, to penetrate it vertically, point down into a basket, bowl or cache of rice (or other soft grain if the phurba is wooden). The terms employed for the deity and the tool are interchangable in Western scholarship. In the Himalayan shamanic tradition the phurba may be considered as axis mundi. Müller-Ebelling, et. al. (2002) affirm that for the majority of Nepalese shaman, the phurba is cognate with the 'world tree', either in their visualisations or in initiatory rites or other rituals (Wikipedia).…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A vivid portrait of the American prairie, which rivals the rainforest in its biological diversity and, with little notice, is disappearing even faster"This book describesin loving, living proseone of the world's greatest and most important landscapes. And it does so while there's still time to save some serious part of it."Bill McKibben, author of The End of NatureThe North American prairie is an ecological marvel, a lush carpet of grass that stretches to the horizon, and home to some of the nation's most iconic creaturesbison, elk, wolves, pronghorn, prairie dogs, and bald eagles. Plants, microbes, and animals together made the grasslands one of the richest ecosystems on Earth and a massive carbon sink, but the constant expansion of agriculture threatens what remains.When European settlers encountered the prairie nearly two hundred years ago, rather than a natural wonder they saw an alien and forbidding place. But with the steel plow, artificial drainage, and fertilizers, they converted the prairie into some of the world's most productive farmlanda transformation unprecedented in human history. American farmers fed the industrial revolution and made North America a global breadbasket, but at a terrible cost: the forced dislocation of Indigenous peoples, pollution of great rivers, and catastrophic loss of wildlife. Today, industrial agriculture continues its assault on the prairie, plowing up one million acres of grassland a year. Farmers can protect this extraordinary landscape, but trying new ideas can mean ruin in a business with razor-thin margins, and will require help from Washington, D.C., and from consumers.Veteran journalists and midwesterners Dave Hage and Josephine Marcotty reveal humanity's relationship with this incredible land, offering a deep, compassionate analysis of the difficult decisions as well as opportunities facing agricultural and Indigenous communities. Sea of Grass is a vivid portrait of a miraculous ecosystem that makes clear why the future of this region is of essential concern far beyond the heartland.…
