James Low Bücher

Sparks is the 8th book by this popular author. It is an accessible collection of short writings and poems informed by his experience of practising and teaching Buddhism for many years. In simple and beautiful language it is an expression of the profound non-dual view of Dzogchen, which illuminates the enlivening Buddha potential present in all of us. This pithy collection of prose and poems can be entered at any point, enjoyed and reflected upon since each 'spark' or 'snippet' is complete in itself. The topic is profound, yet it is condensed and expressed in simple language using examples and metaphors from everydaylife and the living world around us. James Low's books have been and are being translated into Estonian, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese and Spanish. James Low has now retired from his post as a Consultant Psychotherapist in the National Health Service. He maintains a small private psychotherapy practice in London and has taught in many psychotherapy institutes, mostly in the UK.

Simply Being presents twelve texts collected and translated by James Low, who copied them from the travelling libraries of yogis practicing in the Himalayas. These twelve traditional teachings show us how to recognize our own enlightened being as infinite awareness free of all effort and artifice: Freed from limiting false assumptions, human nature is revealed as a joyful process of open responsiveness.

"Being Guru Rinpoche" shows how to use a traditional Tibetan Buddhist meditation text as a method for transforming daily experience into an unbroken flow of wisdom and compassion.
