Vipasana es la puesta en práctica de los Cuatro Fundamentos de la Atención, tal y como aparecen en el Anapanasati Sutra, el Satipathana Sutra, y en otros discursos atribuidos al Buda. Se trata de un método directo y gradual para cultivar la atención y desarrollar una comprensión clara de la realidad. La atención se enfoca en aspectos de tu propia existencia y los examina. Uno se adiestra para ver claramente el fluido de la experiencia vital: escuchar y ver con atención lo que acontece en nuestro interior.Vipasana es tanto teórico como práctico. "Siéntate y observa el espectáculo". Su finalidad es poder ver más allá de las cortinas ilusorias que te hacen confundir la realidad. El propósito último de vipasana es aprender a ver tres verdades universales:1) todo es transitorio,2) vives niveles distintos de malestar o duhkha de los que te puedes liberar y3) careces de un yo sólido, independiente y controlador.Muchas personas confunden samatha con vipasana, cuando son tipos de meditación muy diferentes. Samatha desarrolla la calma y la capacidad de permanecer apaciblemente sobre su objeto, entraña sólo enfocarse y sostener la atención. Vipasana, por otro lado, es una investigación atenta y penetrante para despertar una comprensión clara de los aspectos centrales de nuestra existencia física y mental.

Dance is more than just movement; it is a powerful form of expression that transcends words. It has the ability to touch our souls, move our bodies, and connect us to something greater than ourselves. In a world that often feels chaotic and overwhelming, dance offers a sanctuary where students can find solace, inspiration, and a sense of purpose.One of the most profound aspects of dance is its ability to communicate emotions. Through the graceful extension of limbs, intricate footwork, and fluid body movements, dancers are able to convey a wide range of feelings that words alone cannot capture. Whether it is the joy of a lively jazz routine, the passion of a fiery flamenco performance, or the vulnerability of a contemporary piece, dance gives students a platform to express their innermost thoughts and emotions in a way that is both cathartic and empowering.Beyond its emotional impact, dance also fosters physical strength, flexibility, and endurance. As students dedicate themselves to their craft, they learn to push their bodies to new limits, developing a level of discipline and determination that extends far beyond the dance floor. The physicality of dance teaches students the importance of taking care of their bodies, fueling them with nutritious food, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Students also learn the value of teamwork and cooperation, as they collaborate with fellow dancers to create harmonious and synchronized movements.Moreover, dance has the unique ability to unite people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. Regardless of language barriers or societal differences, dance brings individuals together in a shared celebration of movement and rhythm. Through cultural dances and international collaborations, students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for the diversity of the world, fostering a sense of unity and global citizenship.In the face of adversity, dance can be a beacon of hope. It provides an outlet for students to channel their energy and emotions, and to find solace during difficult times. Whether it is the loss of a loved one, the stress of academic challenges, or personal struggles, dance offers a therapeutic escape, allowing students to find strength, healing, and resilience within themselves.

A humorous guide to yoga poses you can do when life holds you up.

For the first time, Pope Francis tells the story of his life as he looks back on the momentous world events that have changed history--from his earliest years during the outbreak of World War II in 1939 to the turmoil of today. An extraordinary personal and historical journey, Life is the story of a man and a world in dramatic change. Pope Francis recalls his life through memories and observations of the most significant occurrences of the past eight decades, from the Holocaust to the fall of the Berlin Wall, Videla's coup in Argentina to the moon landing in 1969, and even the 1986 World Cup in which Maradona scored the unforgettable "hand of God" goal.Here are the frank assessments and intimate insights of a pastor reflecting on the Nazi extermination of the Jews, the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the 2001 terrorist attack on America and the collapse of the Twin Towers, the great economic recession of 2008, the Covid-19 pandemic, the retirement of Pope Benedict XVI, and the subsequent conclave that elected him Pontiff. The "pope callejero" recounts these world-changing moments with the candor and compassion that distinguishes him, and offers important messages on major crises confronting us now, including social inequalities, climate change, international war, atomic weapons, racial discrimination, and the battles over social and cultural issues.Translated from the Italian by Aubrey Botsford

In the first US edition of Satish Kumar's classic book, we rediscover how our spiritual and social well-being connects to that of our planet.Internationally-respected peace and environment activist Satish Kumar has been gently setting the agenda for change for over 50 years. As 350.org founder Bill McKibben says, "There is no one on the planet better-equipped to make you think and rethink how you're living and how you might change." The age of sustainability is grounded on the knowledge that we ourselves are very much part of nature; that what we do to nature we in fact do to ourselves; and that the earth has a soul, which we share. Drawing on the example of Rabindranath Tagore, Kumar advocates living with awareness that our personal choices have political and poetic resonance. In this book, he inspires readers with the knowledge we are all leaders and can create change in our structures and mindsets for lasting peace and a sustainable culture and society. Celebrating an emerging global consciousness that reveres nature, the book explores how, as a global society, we need to embrace diversity and be aware of our role as pilgrims on this earth. Joyful and heart-centered, Satish Kumar reminds us that to bring about change in the world, we must embody the change we wish to see.
