Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. While the notion that happiness can found within oneself has recently become popular, Buddhism has taught for thousands of years that every person is a Buddha, or enlightened being, and has the potential for true and lasting happiness. Through real-life examples, the authors explain how adopting this outlook has positive effects on one's health, relationships, and career, and gives new insights into world environmental concerns, peace issues, and other major social problems.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Is there more to Buddhism than sitting in silent meditation? Is modern Buddhism relevant to the problems of daily life? Does it empower individuals to transform their lives? Or has Buddhism become too detached, so still and quiet that the Buddha has fallen asleep? Waking the Buddha tells the story of the Soka Gakkai International, the largest, most dynamic Buddhist movement in the world today--and one that is waking up and shaking up Buddhism so it can truly work in ordinary people's lives. Drawing on his long personal experience as a Buddhist teacher, journalist, and editor, Clark Strand offers broad insight into how and why the Soka Gakkai, with its commitment to social justice and its egalitarian approach, has become a role model, not only for other schools of Buddhism, but for other religions as well. Readers will be inspired by the struggles and triumphs of the Soka Gakkai's three founding presidents--individuals who staked their lives on the teachings of the Lotus Sutra and the extraordinary power of those teachings to help people become happy.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In this soul-stirring memoir, Lawrence E. Carter Sr. shares his remarkable quest to experience King's beloved community and his surprising discovery that King's dream was being realized by the Japanese Buddhist philosopher Daisaku Ikeda. Coming of age on the cusp of the American Civil Rights Movement, Carter was personally mentored by Martin Luther King Jr. and followed in his footsteps--first to get an advanced degree in theology and then to teach a new generation at King's alma mater, Morehouse College. Over the years, however, Carter was disheartened to see the radical cosmic vision at the heart of King's message gradually diluted. Then he encountered Ikeda, president of the lay Buddhist association Soka Gakkai International. Carter knew that King had been inspired by Ghandi, a Hindu, and now Ikeda, a Buddhist, was showing him how King's message of justice, equality, and the fundamental dignity of life could be carried to millions of people around the world. What ensued was not a conversion but a conversation--about the essential role of interfaith dialogue, the primacy of education, and the value of a living faith to realize King's dream of truly global cooperation.…
