2004
"In language totally fresh and jargon-free, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche distills the wisdom of many centuries. Simple as it is profound, his book bears reading many times."—Peter Conradi, author of Iris Murdoch: A Life and Going Buddhist Strengthening, calming, and stabilizing the mind is the essential first step in accomplishing nearly any goal. Growing up American with a Tibetan twist, Sakyong Mipham talks to Westerners as no one can: in idiomatic English with stories and wisdom from American culture and the great Buddhist teachers. Turning the Mind Into an Ally makes it possible for anyone to achieve peace and clarity in their lives.

Il mandala femminile
Tsultrim Allione
Tra le prime monache buddhiste occidentali, Tsultrim Allione ha rinunciato ai voti per sposarsi e avere figli. Ma dopo la morte in culla del suo piccolo, è tornata a rivolgersi alla saggezza buddhista in cerca di una via per trasformare il dolore in crescita spirituale. Ricca di una lunga esperienza nella meditazione mandala, in queste pagine racconta la sua vicenda di perdita e ricerca, ma soprattutto insegna ai lettori come diventare più forti nelle avversità, guidandoli lungo un cammino di risveglio che conduce verso la pratica tantrica e il cambiamento.

Nutri i tuoi demoni
Tsultrim Allione
Depressione, ansia, malattia, disordini alimentari, relazioni difficili, paura, rabbia, dipendenza. Quali che siano i tuoi demoni, più li combatti e più questi diventano forti. Per liberartene, non devi opporti a loro, devi nutrirli.
