Description

"Training the Wisdom Body presents the practice of lujong-exercise for our entire system, from the coarse aspects to the subtler and more profound. (Lujong is a Tibetan compound word- lu meaning "body" and jong meaning "training" or "practice.")" Training the Wisdom Body presents the practice of lujong-exercise for our entire system, from the coarse aspects to the subtler and more profound. (Lujong is a Tibetan compound word- lu meaning "body" and jong meaning "training" or "practice.") It provides a thorough foundation for those new to the practice, supports continued practice for those already familiar with the exercises, and helps people engaged in any form of yogic exercise to deepen the potent fusion of meditation and physical movement. The book includes an overview of the unique tradition of Buddhist yoga; presentations on the three foundational principles of renunciation, compassionate bodhichitta, and the profound view of reality; and an explanation of the three aspects-body, mind, and subtle body-that comprise our whole being. There are instructions on how to work with the body and mind in seated meditation and discussion that explores ways we can further our practice by working with adversities such as fear, procrastination, and anxiety and by looking at how to bring practice mind into daily life. Finally, the book includes exercise instructions that give a complete explanation of the movement practices, with photos to illustrate.
