Uncover the core of goodness within. Love, compassion, meaning, hope, and freedom from fear are not qualities we need to acquire. We simply need to uncover what we already have. "Original goodness" is Eknath Easwaran’s phrase for this spark of divinity hidden in every one of us, regardless of our personal liabilities or past mistakes. Commenting on the Beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount, Easwaran shows how this spark of divinity can energize our lives - beginning with a simple method of meditation that gradually removes the conditioning that hides our native goodness.

The fourth way provides a path to wisdom and spiritual enlightenment for "householders", ordinary people living in the world today. It is also known as "the way of understanding". Create an abundant life, follow the path to a truly fulfilling existence. Illuminating, enlightening, and uplifting. This householder’s way has existed since time immemorial. G.I. Gurdjieff conceived the title "fourth way", for the fragmentary assemblage of previously unknown teachings that he brought to the West in the early 20th century.

Stoicism is an active philosophy. That means that it is not enough to know its doctrines; one must also live them and develop habits that expand on and complete their ideas in practice. Practice, therefore, is also the focus of this audiobook, as well as the development of the listener's inner and outer lives, that they may follow their own path and discover what it means to “live life in accordance with nature”. You will discover Stoicism and how to apply it.

It's not always possible to control external events. There are so many things that are outside our control: the past, what others think of us, chronic health issues, other peoples' actions, the weather, unforeseen events. It is possible, though, to gain more control over our interior life. In his book Interior Freedom, Father Jacques Philippe shows us that we possess, each of us, inside of us a space of freedom that no one can take away. Despite the most unfavorable outward circumstances, we can claim our freedom because God is its source and its guarantee.

There are people who transcend humanity, and Buddha is one of them. Despite one’s religious affiliation, one cannot deny that Buddha is one of the most prominent spiritual leaders of humanity. But there is a problem: True happiness in the sense that Buddha achieved is difficult. In the many years that I practiced meditation, I realized that it makes perfect sense to gather the most prolific and valuable quotes from Buddha. These quotes are inspirational.

Publisher's summary
Happiness, health, or success. With whatever you want to achieve, you need to have the right mindset and thought process, or you won’t get the desired outcomes, no matter how hard you try.
The easiest way to find your path for success or greatness is to follow someone who has already achieve it. By referring to biographies of great leaders, philosophers, and philanthropist, we can learn a great deal. Success never comes within a day or week. Maybe the world will recognize one’s greatness after they leave this world.
However, if we can learn at least a little bit from great people, we can be a thousand times better. The thoughts of great philosophers are a great source of wisdom and inspiration everyone should study. Listening to their quotes is a great way to shape up your character and build wisdom.
This audiobook contains more than 300 wise quotes by renown Asian philosophers, namely Confucius, Zhuangzi, Laozi, Mencius, Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī, His Holiness Dalai Lama, and Mahatma Gandhi. These 300 quotes cover many aspects of life, such as spirituality, motivation, happiness, health, and success.
Say these quotes with me with passion, and visualize them. Let them sink into your blood. Listen to them, and say all these quotes in the morning and evening, and let the spirits of these great philosophers enrich your soul.
These quotes possess the power to establish positive thoughts to help you achieve happiness and success in life. The quotes are based on the power of the spoken word. When you say the same thing over and over again, and when you think the same thing over and over again, the words begin to resonate in your mind and with the universe, and the universe will bring about what you need.

This is a summary of Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations. Meditations is essentially a scrapbook of thoughts written over a 19-year period; it’s not ordered and it repeats itself frequently as ideas reoccurred to the author at different times. For this reason, it can be hard for a casual reader to extract the myriad messages contained within. This summary helps in that by interpreting Meditations and reducing it from around 50,000 words down to 4,400. While it has been interpreted, the author has done his best not to embellish it.

Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.

A Summary of the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius

This is a summary of Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations. Meditations is essentially a scrapbook of thoughts written over a 19-year period; it’s not ordered and it repeats itself frequently as ideas reoccurred to the author at different times. For this reason, it can be hard for a casual reader to extract the myriad messages contained within. This summary helps in that by interpreting Meditations and reducing it from around 50,000 words down to 4,400. While it has been interpreted, the author has done his best not to embellish it.

Uncover the core of goodness within. Love, compassion, meaning, hope, and freedom from fear are not qualities we need to acquire. We simply need to uncover what we already have. "Original goodness" is Eknath Easwaran’s phrase for this spark of divinity hidden in every one of us, regardless of our personal liabilities or past mistakes. Commenting on the Beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount, Easwaran shows how this spark of divinity can energize our lives - beginning with a simple method of meditation that gradually removes the conditioning that hides our native goodness.

Taoist living rests on four pillars: the public, the domestic, the private, and the spirit lives. Not only do Taoists strive to live these four aspects fully and in a balanced way, they also believe there is an outlook and an art to each of them. Eva Wong uses the teachings of Taoist masters themselves to explain the essential concepts. She then gives voice to these texts - simplifying them, removing barriers to understanding, and making them completely accessible and relevant to the modern reader.

With silence increasingly becoming a stranger to us, one man set out to become its intimate: Pablo d'Ors, a Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation. With disarming honesty and directness, as well as a striking clarity of language, d'Ors shares his struggles as a beginning meditator: the tedium, restlessness, and distraction. But, persevering, the author discovers not only a deep peace and understanding of his true nature, but also that silence, rather than being a retreat from life, offers us an intense engagement with life just as it is.
