Autor Sangharakshitaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 sep 2017
An in-depth exposition of the defining facets of the Buddhist life: Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha.
For Buddhists everywhere, the Three Jewels—the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha—are at the heart of daily life and practice. But how can we engage with these precious ideals in a way that makes a difference to how we live? In this, the companion volume to The Three Jewels I, in which the nature of Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels is explored, are gathered three much-loved books: Who is the Buddha?, What is the Dharma?, and What is the Sangha?
In this volume, Sangharakshita tackles a great range of subjects, offering original and imaginative perspectives on all the topics one might expect an introduction to Buddhism to cover—karma and rebirth, Nirvana and the spiral path, and the nature of Buddhahood itself, as well as clear and pragmatic guidance on matters of personal concern, such as individuality, fidelity, gratitude, parenthood, and seeking a spiritual teacher. The teachings are underpinned by many references to the Pali canon and other sources, to provide an authentic guide to the Dharma life in all its aspects, and much encouragement and inspiration to live that life to the fullest.
Sangharakshita is the founder and principal teacher of Triratna, a worldwide Buddhist movement. With teaching experience spanning sixty years, he is the author of over forty books.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
For Buddhists everywhere, the Three Jewels – the Buddha or Enlightened individual, the Dharma, his teaching, and the Sangha, the spiritual community that he founded – are at the heart of daily life and practice. But how can we make our engagement with these precious ideals practical and real? In this volume – the companion volume to the forthcoming Three Jewels I, in which the nature of going for Refuge to the Three Jewels is explored – are gathered three much loved books, Who is the Buddha?, What is the Dharma? and What is the Sangha?
Originally published in the 1990s, they include Sangharakshita’s reflections on a whole range of topics, from karma and rebirth, Nirvana and the ‘spiral’ path to the true individual, fidelity, being a Buddhist parent, whether a guru is necessary, gratitude, the nature of Buddhahood itself and a host of other topics. All are clearly and beautifully laid out, and full of references to the early Buddhist canon, and to later works of the tradition, as well as original insights and practical advice on how we can translate understanding into a way of life.
