INDIAN WISDOM, CHRISTANITY AND MODERN PSYCHOLOGY (BY JACQUES VIGNE)
Other Religion Books
In this book the author shows how psychological and spiritual sufferings are interwoven , and how tradition with its answers can collaborate with psychology to alleviate them. He starts by questioning the Western notion of normality, saying it reduces human and apiritual potentials for growth to a king of average neurosis. He speaks of depression or depression-like reactions as an opening door towards spirituality, if dealt with in the rigt way. He attempts to discriminate between pathology and mysticism in what is called by psychologists regression and dissociation, and can be in some cases the awakening of the spiritual childhood or liberation of the hind from social conditioings.

795/=Into the Jaws of Yama, Lord of Death (BUDDHISM, Bioethics, & Death) By Karma Lekshe Tsomo
Other Religion Books
Introduction:- As a small child, I was fascinated with the question of what happens after death. An aura of mystery, fear, and avoidance seemed to accompany the topic of death. Although I asked one authority after another, the answers did not strike me as satisfactory. The rewards of heaven and the threat of hell did not seem convincing explanations of what happens to human beings after the breath stops and the eyes close. I continued to search, ultimately looking further afield to find an answer to this puzzle. My search led me to many countries in Asia & eventually to the Tibetan refugee settlement of Dharamsala in northern India, after my third serious bout of hepatitis during my studies in Dharamsala, I naively asked a Tibetan doctor, “Am I going to die?” Dr. Yeshi Dhonden, the private physician to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, immediately replied, “Of course, you’re going to die! We’re all going die!” Clearly, his personal perspective on life & death was intimately in tune with the descriptions of death and dying I had been studying in Tibetan Buddhist texts. Some years later, as I lay for three months in hospitals in Delhi & Tijuana recovering from a poisonous viper bite, the prospect of death loomed very near. The medical staff in Delhi did not expect me to survive and for several weeks after receiving the poisonous bite, I dwelled in a luminal realm between consciousness and unconsciousness that bore little resemblance to ordinary waking reality. Every day death was imminent, particularly in view of the medical care available. After one particular surgery, the staff saw me turn blue and I awakened in what appeared to be another realm of existence. As I was wheeled out of the operating theater, through a blue haze, three unknown Indian blood donors standing at the foot of the bed appeared to be angels. The experience of living on the edge of death for so long rekindled the questions about that had fascinated me as a child.
