"A moving biography of Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche, one of the twentieth century's most influential Tibetan Buddhist teachers, written by his devoted student Khenpo Sodargye"-- A moving biography of Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche, one of the twentieth century’s most influential Tibetan Buddhist teachers, written by his devoted student Khenpo Sodargye.30 black-and-white historical photographs illustrate this remarkable life story.Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche (1933–2004) was one of the most influential Buddhist teachers of the twentieth century. In this moving biography, Khenpo Sodargye—a lead teacher at Larung Gar Five Sciences Buddhist Academy—brings his beloved root teacher’s remarkable story and accomplishments to life with wisdom and reverence. His personal anecdotes coupled with the prophecies of great masters and verse from Buddhist texts offer a portrait that is at once intimate and profound, revealing Jigme Phuntsok’s legacy as the mythical “golden garuda” who was instrumental in the flourishing of Buddhism. During a pivotal period in modern Tibetan history, he created the world’s largest Buddhist institution, attracted thousands of followers with his nonsectarian teachings, and taught some of today’s great Tibetan Buddhist teachers. The engaging narrative unfolds chronologically in dozens of short, impactful chapters. We’re introduced to Jigme Phuntsok’s previous incarnations and learn about his early years. We experience his teaching trips, including a journey to the holy mountain of Wutaishan in China together with ten thousand Tibetan disciples. We learn about his visionary experiences and revelations, including one that failed—a rare account in Tibetan literature of such an occurrence. With elements of biography, travelogue, and magical tale, this life story contains adventure, suffering, and human connection. This portrayal of the great Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche’s compassionate life dedicated to spiritual practice and teaching will inspire Buddhist practitioners and meditators and readers with an interest in modern Tibetan and Buddhist history.

Discover succinct instructions for ending the habits that cause you so much suffering in this contemporary exploration of a foundational four-line teaching from Vajrayana Buddhism.How do we break free from the habits and compulsions that bring us suffering? In the twelfth century, Sakya Drakpa Gyeltsen penned four short but significant lines, known as Parting from the Four Attachments, offering a concise guide to becoming a genuine dharma practitioner and charting a path to enlightenment. In The Flowing River of Dharma, Anyen Rinpoche and Allison Choying Zangmo offer a fresh, contemporary exploration of this foundational Vajrayana Buddhist text, drawing on insights from Anyen Rinpoche’s teacher Khenchen Tsara Dharmakirti Rinpoche and a cave-dwelling hermit known as Lama Tsepel. Using the rime approach, which promotes cross-tradition learning, the authors refer to teachings from a variety of traditions, in particular The Four Dharmas of Gampopa, as well as wisdom from the Sakya, Kagyu, Nyingma, Kadam of old, and Gelug traditions of Tibet.With clear language and a candid look at the challenges of dharma practice, Anyen Rinpoche explores the power of renunciation, understanding samsara’s true nature, and cultivating bodhicitta as pathways to a meaningful life. Buddhists of all backgrounds will discover how these lojong (mind training) teachings can anchor us firmly on the path and ensure that we don’t stray from it until we reach complete liberation.

To understand the Confucian answers to these questions, Jones familiarizes us with Confucius, his main successors, and the situations to which their writings responded.But this is not another textbook introduction to Chinese religion and thought. Jones is an engaging, inquisitive scholar and thought provocateur whose ideas address problems all of us face throughout our lives. By engaging with the Confucian ideas explored in this book, like rethinking “human nature” and uncovering cultural presuppositions previously unnoticed, you might discover new horizons and possibilities for your life that previously you never could have imagined. And you will discover Confucius in an all-new light as a profound shaper of modern thought as much as Aristotle and Lao-tzu—whose revolutionary ideas have the power to change your mind for the better.

Lexical Roots of Old Cree: An Etymological Dictionary is the result of over two decades of research on historical and contemporary Cree dialects. Built from extensive linguistic fieldwork with nearly a hundred fluent speakers and supported by lexical databases and textual corpora, it offers a detailed reconstruction of Old Cree roots and their evolution across dialects such as Moose Cree, Southern East Cree, Atikamekw, and Western Innu. Lexical rootsthe smallest meaningful units of wordsare central to Crees polysynthetic structure, where words can function as entire sentences. By meticulously tracing these roots, this dictionary provides critical insights into how words were formed in Old Cree and how they continue to be structured in modern dialects. Beyond linguistic reconstruction, this work addresses practical challenges in Cree lexicography, particularly those arising from orthographic variations and dialectal differences. It serves as a valuable resource for lexicographers, linguists, and community members engaged in language preservation and revitalization. The research draws from historical manuscripts, early dictionaries, and oral traditions, ensuring a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to linguistic analysis. At a time of rapid linguistic erosion, this dictionary not only documents Crees rich lexical heritage but also supports ongoing efforts to sustain and strengthen the language for future generations. It stands as a testament to the knowledge generously shared by fluent speakers and to the enduring vitality of Cree linguistic traditions. Autorid: Kevin Brousseau

Ins Zentrum ihrer künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung stellt Regina Hübner den Menschen. Sie fragt nach grundlegenden Themen seines Daseins wie Werden, Vergänglichkeit, Selbst oder Nicht-Selbst ("We are also what we are not"), nach dem Menschen als Individuum und als sozialem Wesen. Sie untersucht Dimensionen von Kommunikation und Beziehungen - zu Mitmenschen, zu konkreten Objekten des Interesses, zu Natur und Kultur. Dabei schaut sie auf Körperlichkeit ebenso wie auf Mentales, aufs Kleinstes ebenso wie aufs Ganze - von der Zelle ("Dear Cell") bis ins All ("loving"). "Regina Hübner etabliert Räume in Räumen, die uns durch ihre spezifische Gestaltung in Welten entführen, die sich deutlich von der alltäglichen Wirklichkeit, in der wir uns ansonsten bewegen, unterscheiden [...] Man sieht Bilder sowohl von mikroskopischen Ordnungen als auch von makroskopischen Systemen, dazu ins Verhältnis gesetzt ist immer der Mensch, eingebettet in ein unendliches Universum, dem er angehört und in dem er - selbst als verschwindend kleine Einheit - Bedeutung hat." Christine Wetzlinger-Grundnig Regina Hübner erweitert ihre Videokunst transdisziplinär und in den umgebenden realen Raum hinein zu Installationen, die sie "Ambientations" nennt: Durch die Verbindung der oft symbolhaft einfachen, großformatig projizierten bewegten Bilder mit der Architektur und unter Einbeziehung weiterer Medien (etwa Zeichnungen, experimentelle oder Wissenschaftsfotografie, Performance, Tanz, Musik oder Briefe, die von beteiligten Protagonist:innen geschrieben wurden) schafft sie Werke von beeindruckender Poesie und Sinnlichkeit, eröffnet außergewöhnliche Erlebnis- und Erkenntnisräume - und in Arbeiten, die Rezipierende zur Partizipation einladen, auch Handlungsräume. "Dieses In-Beziehung-Treten, Sich-jemandem-oder-einer-Sache-Zuwenden, Kontaktaufnehmen [...] ist im Titel 'Dear ...', einer gängigen Anredeform in Briefen, ausgedrückt. Briefe als Mittel und Dokumente des Austausches spielen in der Arbeit von Regina Hübner eine bedeutende Rolle [...] Sie sind Symbole einer Welt, die die Künstlerin als ein Netz vielfältiger Beziehungen begreift. In diesem Sinne schließt Regina Hübner auch unterschiedliche Sparten von Wissenschaft und Kunst, Literatur, Tanz und Musik in ihre Arbeit ein, um eine Methode des Miteinanders zu entwickeln, in der jedes einzelne Fach sowie der Verbund aller Relevanz hat." Christine Wetzlinger-Grundnig "Regina Hübner: Dear ..." dokumentiert die gleichnamige Personale im Museum Moderner Kunst Kärnten/MMKK (12.03. -31.05.2026), die mit zentralen, für die Ausstellung situationsspezifisch adaptierten Werken sowie mit neuen, bisher noch nicht öffentlich präsentierten Arbeiten einen Querschnitt aus dem ¿uvre der international aktiven Videokünstlerin zeigt. Die Monografie ergänzt eine ausführliche Biografie sowie Textbeiträge, die verschiedene Zugänge zur Kunst von Regina Hübner anbieten.
