Synopsis

The Popol Vuh is a foundational text of Maya culture and literature, often referred to as the "Book of the Council" or "Book of the Community." It is one of the most important historical sources for understanding the beliefs, mythology, and history of the Kʼicheʼ Maya people, who inhabited the highlands of present-day Guatemala.

The Popol Vuh does not have a single, identifiable author in the conventional sense. Instead, it is a product of the collective oral traditions of the Kʼicheʼ Maya.

    Listening is not a passive act; it involves active engagement. It’s a skill that can be developed and honed over time, and when mastered, it transforms how we connect with others. In this book, we will explore the nuances of listening, from the different types—such as active, empathetic, and critical listening—to the challenges that prevent us from truly hearing what others are saying. We’ll delve into the importance of body language, nonverbal cues, and how our responses shape the flow of conversation. You will also learn how to overcome the common barriers that hinder effective listening, whether they’re external distractions or internal biases. 
      
    This book isn’t just for those seeking to improve their communication skills for professional success, though it certainly will help in the workplace. It’s for anyone who wants to enrich their relationships, understand others on a deeper level, and foster empathy and connection in their personal lives. Whether you’re engaging in a conversation with a friend, a colleague, or a loved one, the ability to listen well will deepen your interactions and create a more supportive, open environment for those around you.

    Buddhist teachings and heart-centered practices from the "feminine paradigm" to embrace receptivity and bring more balance to your life, relationships, and the world. 
     
     
     
    With deeply thoughtful, lyrical prose, this book invites listeners to engage with the world from a unique perspective that encourages feeling, intuitive understanding, embodiment, interdependence, and sacredness. Weaving together classical Theravada Buddhist teachings and mindfulness practices, the book teaches us when and how to channel our receptive and active orientations—sometimes called the feminine and masculine paradigms—to feel more at home in ourselves and the world and drop more deeply into the Buddhist teachings on suffering and happiness. 
     
     
     
    Rebecca Bradshaw, a respected Buddhist teacher in the Insight Meditation community, offers teachings that are simple yet require us to explore aspects of ourselves that go against much of our social conditioning that values goal-oriented busyness, productivity, independence, outgoing energy, and other “active” qualities. When overemphasized, this orientation can cause destructive emotions and behaviors, but we can counter them by embracing more receptive qualities. The receptive or feminine paradigm takes us deeper into the heart of the classical Buddhist teachings, leading to openness and freedom of the heart-mind.
