The spiritual path can seem lonely and difficult at times. As we go through life, we face challenges and setbacks that can shake our faith and resolve. The 999 silver Shurangama Sutra Buddha Medallion was created with deep compassion for anyone on a spiritual quest. It serves as a reminder that we are not alone. Rather, we walk together with all beings who seek enlightenment. . The Shurangama Sutra is one of the most important sutras in Buddhism. Studying this sacred text, as well as wearing this medallion, helps us cultivate wisdom and strengthen our practice. In the same way, it protects us from harm and clears away obstacles on our path. Moreover, it represents our shared aspiration for awakening. Whenever you see the medallion, you will be reminded of the dharma and your sacred calling. All in all, it provides a source of comfort, guidance and inspiration for your journey ahead. For more info about this medallion, our website link is in the IG bio. @mantrapiece . #mantrapiece #kadampabuddhism #nichirenbuddhism #buddhismozen #vajrayanabuddhism #buddhisme #thaibuddhism #zenbuddhism #neobuddhism #buddhismphilosophy #buddhismisalifestyle #buddhismdaybyday #buddhismrocks #buddhismtemple #buddhismus #buddhism🙏 #buddhismart #buddhismwithoutbeliefs #secularbuddhism #japanesebuddhism #buddhismquotes #tibetanbuddhism #buddhismteachings #modernbuddhism #theravadabuddhism #buddhism101 #buddhismtattoo #buddhism #buddhismformothers (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr1PElwox6e/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It is interesting to me that in a group I am in that professes a philosophy of inclusion and positive thoughts & deeds frequently devolves into an argument about which philosophy is correct. #liveandletlive #donoharm #inthoughtordeed #secularbuddhism is just another set of rules apparently.

As mentioned in class, a successful ad campaign mostly focuses on the consumers and what kind of message they would like to embrace. I've also recently listened to a podcast called "Secular Buddhism" that talked about branding-- whether in a general consumer context, or in our own context. We are constantly trying to fit into our specific brand, and when we don't perceive that brand or others don't perceive us as that, we go into a mini crisis mode because we realize we don't exactly know who we are. This article made me think of that podcast, especially the part mentioning "Nike: Find Your Greatness". This campaign makes everyone feel like they can be part of the athletic culture, and appeals to everyone and not professional athletes. It makes "normal" people feel incredible, and can appeal to their own brand they think themselves as. The data these companies collect to create a brand so appealing is incredible but also scary.

If you don't like meditating, you're not alone. . It's difficult. It can be boring. You can get restless. You can get sleepy. Your mind will feel like a tornado of thoughts. . But here's the thing, if you don't meditate, dealing with the crap that comes up in life is exponentially more difficult. . Sometimes it can be helpful to view meditation practice as eating your veggies or flossing your teeth. . Let go of the idea that it has to feel like a luxury spa or that you should sit in ecstatic bliss. . If you're struggling to get started, my recommendation is to lower your expectations. Instead of trying to do 20 minutes everyday, focus in doing at least 2 minutes a day. . Focus on consistency more than length. . . . . #mind #mindfulness #mindfulentrepreneur #peaceful #meditate #meditation #habits #thoughts #awareness #powerofnow #buddhism #secularbuddhism #addictionandrecovery #fear #stressmanagement #mentalhealth #mentalstrength #concentration #focus #inspirastion #meditateeverydamnday #coaching #spiritualawakening #insight #vipassana https://www.instagram.com/p/BwLO9uDHCEB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ksiwvfkggl34

This article is written by an atheist Buddhist, and discusses the benefits of Buddhism even if you are an atheist or agnostic. The author discusses how Buddhism helps teach mindfulness through one’s thoughts and emotions. Buddhism can also help lay out a code of ethics for non-believers, and aid in living a more wholesome life. The author of this article, Dana, explains that “unethical actions create inner turmoil and outer unrest.” Buddhism provides guidance to ethics, and because the religion does not revolve around belief in a god, atheists are able to be Buddhist, and learn from the teachings. In an introductory World Religions course taught by professor Whitaker, we discussed the Middle Way, Buddha’s answer to how to live a wholesome life. The Buddha came to the conclusion that neither complete indulgence nor punishment is the answer to living a healthy life. Also, Buddhism, unlike Hinduism, allows one to reach enlightenment regardless of the caste you are born into.

Many of the teachings of the Buddha are universal, and helpful for anyone, even people who are non-religious or believe in a different religion. The story of the Buddha is fascinating, and shows how indulgence or abstinence alone cannot fulfill a person. The four passing sights in Buddhism, suggest that all life is suffering (dukkha). Although the Buddha grew up in a rich family, and was given anything he wished for, he did not feel complete, and became an Ascetic. The Buddha fasted by eating only one grain of rice per day, but this practice did not fulfill him either, and only made him sick.

These stories of the Buddha are applicable to everyone’s daily life and support the article about Secular Buddhism. Buddha himself never said that he was a god or any type of otherworldly being; his famous response is, “I’m not a god, I am awake.” Buddhism lays out guidelines to overcome suffering and promote wisdom and ethical conduct through the eightfold path, a guide available for anyone. The article reminds us that Buddhism is one of a few religions that does not require the belief in a God or other spiritual being, and can be used by anyone as a guide to live a fulfilling life.

At the @asianartmuseum for the New Year’s Eve bell ringing Joya no Kane #除夜の鐘 I didn’t record the chants before this as I was sitting. It’s really lovely. I miss my home temples - but as art is my belief as a humanist, museums are my temples and my church. So this is multiply appropriate. #sanfrancisco #ritual #myritual #joyanokane #museum #secularbuddhism (at Asian Art Museum)

“You are the Universe experiencing itself from your perspective.” This is a rough paraphrasing of something I heard @noahrasheta (@secularbuddhism) quote Alan Watts as saying. It is an important idea that for me unifies beliefs across many spiritual and religious systems, and has become a cornerstone of my own spiritual practice. I originally made this as a black and white illustration for the print version of the Rainbow Grimoire, but thought it would be neat in color and as a poster. #universe #youaretheuniverse #magick #magic #witchesofinstagram #poster #illustration #grimoire #grimoirepages https://www.instagram.com/p/CTAqGrXhihV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Meditation is not magical or mystical. . You don't need to transcend reality or connect with the "universal consciousness." . Meditation is a cultivation of the mind. . It's about understanding the terrain of your mind, and creating fertile conditions for happiness to grow. . So stop watering weeds of sorrow. Plant seeds of joy instead. . . . . . #meditate #meditation #mindfulentrepreneur #mindfulness #secularbuddhism #mind #scienceofmind #cultivate #flourish #healthylifestyle #healthy #innerpeace #resilience #addiction #recovery #habits #healthyhabits #meditatedaily #meditateeverydamnday #meditationspace #headspace #calm #jeremylipkowitz #tech #science #medicine #joy https://www.instagram.com/p/BulNfBSnyi7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rjlw7qj9ucwh
