Building Peace - One Life at a Time (MP3 CD)

Description

When faced with the complex and painful world situation, it might seem hopeless – the world and its inhabitants are caught in a seemingly inescapable web of conflict and suffering. We aspire to bring peace to this situation. The difficulty is that we don’t know how to do this. In this delightful and humor-filled talk, Lama Kathy Wesley describes the Buddhist view of conflict and peacemaking. Using the words of Buddha in the Dharmapada, Shantideva in The Way of the Bodhisattva, and Gyatsal Thogme Zangpo in The Thirty-Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva she helps us understand the source of conflict and war. She then teaches methods for working with our minds (especially anger and hatred) to transform conflict and bring peace into our own hearts that we can then bring to the world at large. This wonderful teaching is enhanced and clarified through the extensive question and answer session Lama Kathy offers. One talk.

Features

MP3CD Recordings
MP3CDs look like ordinary CDs, but contain compressed audio files. While a regular audio CD holds a maximum of only 80 minutes of recorded audio, an identical-looking MP3CD can easily hold the audio files from an entire weekend or even week-long teaching. MP3CDs can be played in a computer and/or the audio files can be downloaded into an iPod or similar device. MP3CDs may also be played on a portable MP3CD player. Most ordinary CD players, such as the CD player in most older cars (roughly 2005 and earlier), will not play MP3CDs. Many but not all cars 2006 or later do have MP3-capable CD players. Any car or home stereo CD player that is capable of playing an MP3CD will have "MP3" or "MP3-WMA" clearly marked on the front of it.
The MP3CDs available for sale on this web site are all clearly labeled and packaged in a clear case. The audio files on them have proper ID3 tag information, which means that on a computer, iPod or similar device the audio files will display (and can be searched by) Album (Title of teaching), Song (Talk number within a teaching) and Artist (Teacher).
