The Art of War
FREE INSTANT DOWNLOAD | Sun Tzu is traditionally believed to be the author of The Art of War, sometimes called the Sun Tzu, an influential ancient Chinese book on military strategy considered to be a prime example of Taoist strategy. It presents a philosophy of war for managing conflicts and winning battles. The Art of War formed the foundations of orthodox military theory from the laying of plans to the tactics and psychology of maneuvering an army, to the proper use of spies, resonate for us in today's world of cut-throat, ruthless business. This classic is widely seen as a necessity on the bookshelf of military leaders and boardroom executives alike. Illustrating this point, the book was required reading to pass the tests needed for imperial appointment to military positions. Sun Tzu has had a significant impact on Chinese and Asian history and culture as an author of the Art of War and as a legendary figure.

The Wings to Awakening
| The Wings to Awakening constitute the Buddha’s own list of his most important teachings. Toward the end of his life, he stated several times that as long as the teachings in this list were remembered and put into practice, his message would endure. Thus the Wings constitute, in the Buddha’s eyes, the words and skills most worth mastering and passing along to others. This text includes copious new translations from the Pali Canon, and serves as a very useful anthology of the Buddha’s most essential teachings.

Strong Roots
FREE INSTANT DOWNLOAD | How does a human practice change, and how can it possibly stay the same in the process of transmission between very different cultures?

Itivuttaka: This Was Said by the Buddha
FREE INSTANT DOWNLOAD | The Itivuttaka, a collection of 112 short discourses, takes its name from the statement at the beginning of each of its discourses: this (iti) was said (vuttam) by the Blessed One. It has long been one of the favorite collections in the Pali Canon, for it covers a wide range of the Buddha’s teachings—from the simplest to the most profound—in a form that is accessible, appealing, and to the point. However, although the discourses in the Itivuttaka cover many topics, they all relate to a common theme: the consequences of one’s actions, or kamma.

Tao Te Ching |
|
$ 2.95 USDAccording to tradition, the text was written around the 6th century BC by the sage Laozi (Old Master). The Tao Te Ching is fundamental to the Philosophical Taoism and other schools, such as Legalism and Neo-Confucianism. This ancient book is central in Chinese religion, not only for Taoism but Chinese Buddhism, Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and even gardeners have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. It is not hard to understand the readiness of early scholars to assert that the doctrine of the Trinity was revealed in the Tao Te Ching and that its fourteenth chapter contains the syllables of "Yahveh." Even today, though these errors have been recognized for more than a century, the general notion that Lao Tzu was Christ's forerunner has lost none of its romantic appeal. Its influence has also spread widely outside East.

Book of Five Rings |
|
$ 2.95 USDThe Book of Five Rings is a text on the martial arts in general, written by the samurai warrior Miyamoto Musashi around 1645. It is considered a classic treatise on military strategy, much like Sun Tzu's The Art of War. There have been various translations made over the years, and it enjoys an audience considerably broader than only that of martial artists: for instance, some business leaders find its discussion of conflict and taking the advantage to be relevant to business. The modern-day Hyōhō Niten Ichi-ryū employs it as a manual of technique and philosophy. He also continually makes the point that the understandings expressed in the book are important for combat on any scale, whether a one-on-one duel or a massive battle. |

The Dhammapada |
|
$ 4.95 USDThe 1,294 page Dhammapada is a versified Buddhist scripture traditionally ascribed to the Buddha himself. According to tradition, the Dhammapada's verses were spoken by the Buddha on various occasions. Most verses deal with philosophy and spiritualism; for example, he wrote “All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him, as the wheel follows the foot of the ox that draws the carriage. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him”.
