  "Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise"
  "For want of a nail..."

  Discovering the True Self - Kodo...

  "You can't see your true Self. [But] you can become it. Becoming your true Self is zazen." 
   
   
   
  As an orphan in the slums of Tsu City, Japan, Kodo Sawaki had to fight his way to adulthood, and became one of the most respected Zen masters of the twentieth century. He had a great understanding of Dogen Zenji's teaching and he knew how to express Dogen's philosophy. Sawaki's primary mission was to bring all people to an awareness of the Self, which he believed came through Zen meditation. 
   
   
   
  His humor and straightforward talk garnered Sawaki followers from all walks of life. Though he remained poor by choice, he was rich in spirit. Two of his students who became known in America as well as in Japan were Kosho Uchiyama, abbot of Antaiji Temple and author of Opening The Hand of Thought, and Gudo Nishijima, Zen teacher and translator of Dogen's Shobogenzo. 
   
   
   
  A student of Kosho Uchiyama, Arthur Braverman has compiled an anthology of Sawaki's writings and a garland of sayings gathered from throughout his lifetime. One of a few collections of Sawaki's teachings published in English, his life and work bracket the most intriguing and influential period of modern Zen practice in Japan and America.

  For the Love of it! - Maintain a...

  All too often, when learning new skills and the honeymoon phase wears off, we become stuck in the process. When everything seems to have come to a grinding halt and we are met with failures and challenges, we often loose interest simply because we listen to our inner narrative that tells us that this must be a sign. A sign that we aren't talented, intelligent or lucky enough to be any good. So we listen to ourselves and quite often the world around us, that preaches to us, that it is best to know we should hang in the towel and give up. 
  But the things is, our brains are designed to remember our incomplete tasks much more than our completed ones. This is why we often allow our past failures and given up dreams to take ownership of us. We simply aren't designed to let go of them until they are completed. 
  But in this book, I go into detail about how you can rekindle your passion so that you don't allow yourself to get to this stage and give up on yourself. I help you through the battles so that you can re-connect with the very reason you started out in the first place, because you had a love for something that was once important to you. 
  In this day and age, it's never going to be about whether you win or lose, it's all about how you play the game. And that's all life is, a game that is best played when you are in love with the process of overcoming it's little hick-ups. 
  Because, in life, it often seems like the harder we try and the more important our goals and dreams are to us, the further away they become and the more overwhelming they feel. This is why it's way easier to "check-out" than it is to stay buried in the process of achieving them. I get it. But if you listen to what I have to share in this book, I am certain that you will no longer feel the heavy burden of the self overwhelming expectations that smother your passion and love for the journey of exploring your potential. 
  Without further ado, let's have at it!

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
  These marvelous narratives may seem vastly fantastic to the modern mind, but to every shade of Christianity in those days, they were entirely credible. - from The Hymn of Jesus 
  Are These The Lost words of Jesus? One of the greatest thinkers on the origins of Christianity and a renowned expert on Gnostic and Hermetic literature presents, in this snug volume first published in 1907, the lost teachings of Jesus. Not found in the canonical Gospels and, indeed, frequently dismissed as blasphemous or heretical or "reworked" by later editors to comply with perceived tradition, this beautiful hymn is not just of interest to Christian mystics but to anyone who values wise words well spoken. For those interested in mysticism, Gnosticism, and esoteric traditions.
