醒了就好：擁抱真愛的14段旅程
Tsoknyi Rinpoche
擁抱真愛，其實是個放鬆的過程， 這個過程，是要連結最初的愛， 超越習性的束縛，找回美好的自己。 14段檢視自我的旅程， 帶你直視想法、感覺與身體的反應， 突破各種習氣的牢籠，接收內在智慧傳達的真實訊息。 我們害怕在不熟悉的情況下會面臨障礙，甚至受到傷害。我們累積了一層又一層的「我是誰」與「我能夠達成什麼」的想法。我們學習如何定義自己，並且緊緊抓住這樣的定義，這個「自我」的維持程式，讓我們無法發掘生命的本質──開放、無懼與愛。 本書作者措尼仁波切以鮮活、幽默且善用譬喻的風格，一方面結合了深厚的修證體驗，一方面精確掌握了當代形形色色人們的生活特質與困境，因此清晰且精準地指引了佛法在現代生活中的應用之道。全書詳盡地分享他如何跨越自己的心牆、揭露控制我們生命多年的各種習氣，並且提供各種禪修方法突破自我的形象，引導我們培養一種清新、活潑與正面的角度看待自己的情況、自己的面貌與能夠達成的目標，讓我們記得「我是誰」的真相。在14段練習的過程中，再度喚醒我們的能量與富足，不僅為我們的生命帶來永恆的滿足，同時也激發並鼓舞了整個世界。 名人推薦 索甲仁波切（Sogyal Rinpoche） 措尼仁波切是一顆稀有的珍寶，這位老師將佛教傳統的甚深知識，以非凡的洞見結合我們在現代世界所面臨的挑戰。在本書中，他透過日常生活的例子，巧妙地結合「本質愛」與「微細身」的甚深教導，讓我們明白克服恐懼與侷限是辦得到的，並且點燃每個人內在本俱的無限智慧與慈悲。 李察‧吉爾（Richard Gere） 本書激勵我們去尋找自己暫時失去的東西，並且開始踏上修道，再度連結我們深層的本質，那是喜悅與開放，超越所有的條件與制約，就如同無雲且明亮燦爛的天空。 丹尼爾‧高曼（Daniel Goleman） 措尼仁波切以獨特的方式，融合了通往覺醒之路深切的智慧、燦爛的明性與童心。他以令人愉悅的故事，提供一條實用心理學的洞見與心靈的方法，從這些生動與甚深的內容中，我們感受到與他同在的喜悅。凡是想要擁有更愉悅生活的人，《醒了就好》這本精采的指引，提供你進入更深奧的意義、更寬廣的心，以及愛的火花。 推薦序作者 陳玉慧（劇作家、散文家、小說家、記者）
Carefree Dignity
Tsoknyi Rinpoche
Tsoknyi Rinpoche is a reincarnate lama educated in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. He has been teaching students from around the world since 1990. "Being carefree, you can fit in anywhere. If you're not carefree you keep on bumping up against things. Your life becomes so narrow, so tight; it gets very claustrophobic. Carefree means being wide open from within, not constricted. Carefree doesn't mean careless. It is not that you don't care about others, not that you don't have compassion or are unfriendly. Carefree is being really simple, from the inside. Dignity is not conceit but rather what shines forth from this carefree confidence." --Tsoknyi Rinpoche Tsoknyi Rinpoche's teaching style embodies a vividness that is a play between himself and his audience. His immediateness includes gestures and examples that entice us to understanding. Through guided meditations he offers direct participation as a delightful enhancement to our practice. Simple, straightforward and profound, Carefree Dignity is a book that captivates our intellect while enriching our awareness.
