Interconnected: Embracing Life in Our Global Society
by Ogyen Trinley KarmapaPlucked from a humble nomad family to become the leader of one of Tibet’s oldest Buddhist lineages, the young Seventeenth Karmapa draws on timeless values to create an urgent ethic for today’s global community. We have always been, and will always be, interconnected—through family, community, and shared humanity. As our planet changes and our world grows smaller, it is vital we not only recognize our connections to one another and to the earth but also begin actively working together as interdependent individuals to create a truly global society. The Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, is uniquely positioned to guide us in this process. Drawing on years of intensive Buddhist training and a passionate commitment to social issues, he teaches how we can move from a merely intellectual understanding to a fully lived experience of connection. By first seeing, then feeling, and finally living these connections, we can become more effective agents of social and ethical change. The Karmapa shows us how gaining emotional awareness of our connectedness can fundamentally reshape the human race. He then guides us to action, showing step by step how we can change the way we use the earth’s resources and can continue to better our society. In clear language, the Karmapa draws connections between such seemingly far-flung issues as consumer culture, loneliness, animal protection, and self-reliance. In the process, he helps us move beyond theory to practical and positive social and ethical change.

This wonderful book charts a journey to some of the most beautiful and tranquil places on earth, and introduces us to people whose inner peace is a balm for our troubled times. I loved every page of it." - Nicholas HytnerSuffering from information overload, unable to sleep, Sarah Sands, former editor of the BBC's Today programme, has tried many different strategies to de-stress... only to reject them because, as she says, all too often they threaten to become an exercise in self-absorption.Inspired by the ruins of an ancient Cistercian abbey at the bottom of her Norfolk garden, she begins to research the lives of the monks who once resided there, and realises how much we may have to learn from monasticism.Renouncing the world, monks and nuns have acquired a hidden knowledge of how to live: they labour, they learn and they acquire 'the interior silence'. This book is a quest for that hidden knowledge - a pilgrimage to ten monasteries round the world.From a Coptic desert community in Egypt to a retreat in the Japanese mountains, we follow Sands as she identifies the common characteristics of monastic life and the wisdoms to be learned from them; and as she discovers, behind the cloistered walls, a clarity of mind and an unexpected capacity for solitude which enable her, after years of insomnia, to experience that elusive, dreamless sleep.

Taylor Jr., SHRM-SCP, CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM)A groundbreaking guide to mastering the job interview, offering proven advice and techniques to discover your unique interview style that is key to interviewing better—for those on either side of the table.Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work. That’s what Anna Papalia learned through years of experience as an HR professional, consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and teacher at the Fox School of Business. None of the existing tools work for one simple reason: they don’t get to the heart of what actually makes a great interview—self-awareness. At its core, an interview is a set of questions about you. If you don’t know yourself, you won’t do well.Determined to make the process better, more inclusive, and less obscure, Anna spent years researching how people interview and uncovered a new science to interviewing, rooted in the finding that there are four main styles people exhibit in an interview: you can be a Charmer, a Challenger, an Examiner, or a Harmonizer. Your style influences how you view and approach interviews, and ultimately how you perform in them. In Interviewology, Anna teaches you how to identify your individual style (and that of who you are interviewing with) and offers pragmatic tips for using this knowledge to nail your next interview.Packed with wisdom, Interviewology offers clarity and a dynamic, scientifically validated approach that challenges everything you thought you knew about interviewing, providing unique insight into the process, debunking some of the most common myths, and explaining how you can perform better, whether you’re applying for the job or looking for the right candidate.Going beyond generic advice that isn’t useful in the real world—such as memorizing rote answers or strict guidelines—Interviewology is a revolutionary approach that focuses on self-awareness—and how to develop it—to help everyone master their own unique interview style. It’s about the power of knowing yourself and how that insight can lead to a more successful career and life.
Interviewology \ Entrevistología (Spanish edition): La nueva ciencia de las entrevistas de trabajo
by Anna PapaliaUna revolucionaria guía para dominar las entrevistas de trabajo, donde encontrarás consejos y técnicas comprobadas que te ayudarán triunfar en tu búsqueda laboral al descubrir tu estilo personal.Las recomendaciones tradicionales sobre las entrevistas de trabajo no funcionan. Eso aprendió Anna Papalia durante años de experiencia como profesional en el area de recursos humanos, consultora para las compañías de Fortune 500 y profesora en la Fox School of Business. Ninguna de estas herramientas funciona por una sencilla razón: no abordan lo que en realidad hace que una entrevista sea excelente, el autoconocimiento. En esencia, una entrevista es un conjunto de preguntas sobre ti mismo. Si no te conoces, no te irá bien.Decidida a hacer del proceso algo mejor, más inclusivo y menos oscuro, Anna pasó años investigando cómo se llevan a cabo las entrevistas de trabajo y descubrió una nueva ciencia de la entrevista al hallar que existen cuatro estilos principales que demuestran las personas en este tipo de diálogo: puedes ser un carismático, un desafiante, un examinador o un armonizador. Tu estilo influye en tu perspectiva sobre las entrevistas y, en última instancia, en cómo te desenvuelves en ellas. En este libro, Anna te enseña a identificar tu estilo individual (y el de la persona con quien te entrevistas) y ofrece consejos prácticos sobre cómo utilizar este conocimiento para que tu próxima entrevista sea exitosa.Trascendiendo las recomendaciones típicas, que no son útiles en el mundo real —como memorizar respuestas escritas o guías rígidas—, este libro es un acercamiento centrado en el autoconocimiento —y en cómo desarrollarlo— para ayudarnos a manejar nuestro propio estilo de entrevista. Se trata del poder que conlleva conocerte a ti mismo y de cómo ese conocimiento puede conducirte hacia una carrera y una vida más exitosas. ***A groundbreaking guide to mastering the job interview, offering proven advice and techniques to discover your unique interview style that is key to interviewing better—for those on either side of the table.Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work.

The Intimate Way of Zen: Effort, Surrender, and Awakening on the Spiritual Journey
by James Ishmael FordAn intimate mystery encompasses you and tugs upon your heart—what does it mean to follow that tug across the arc of a spiritual life?Reflecting out of more than fifty years of practice in Zen Buddhism, Unitarian Universalism, and other contemplative traditions, James Ishmael Ford invites us into a journey through life's mysteries and the stages of spiritual development.Lightly structured by the archetypal Buddhist oxherding images, Ford&’s exploration is rooted in the Zen way while being deeply enriched by various strains of world mysticism.

Intimidad: La confianza en uno mismo y en otro (Claves para una nueva forma de vivir #Volumen)
by OshoEl camino para llegar a la auténtica fuente de nuestra capacidad para alcanzar la intimidad. La capacidad para la verdadera intimidad se basa, por encima de todo, en la confianza en uno mismo y en el valor que cada cual tiene como ser humano y único. Y, según Osho, la forma de desarrollarla consiste en ser absolutamente honrados con nosotros mismos sobre quiénes somos, sin juicios de valor y sin el deseo de cambiarnos para encajar en los ideales de otras personas. Por desgracia, la mayoría de nosotros vivimos inmersos en la ilusión de que la fuente de la intimidad se encuentra en nuestra relación con un «otro» especial en nuestra vida, y si no hemos desarrollado la suficiente confianza en nosotros mismos, vamos en busca de ese otro especial en el que depositamos la esperanza de recibirla. Osho nos indica el camino para llegar a la auténtica fuente de nuestra capacidad para alcanzar la intimidad, no solo en las relaciones amorosas, sino también en toda la comunidad de seres del planeta. Así, la intimidad no es algo que podamos encontrar fuera de nosotros mismos, sino una capacidad que descubrimos cuando logramos saber quiénes somos y aprendemos a confiar en ello.
Into the Abyss: A neuropsychiatrist's notes on troubled minds
by Prof. Anthony DavidWe cannot know how to fix a problem until we understand its causes. But even for some of the most common mental health problems, specialists argue over whether the answers lie in the person&’s biology, their psychology or their circumstances. As a cognitive neuropsychiatrist, Anthony David brings together many fields of enquiry, from social and cognitive psychology to neurology. The key for each patient might be anything from a traumatic memory to a chemical imbalance, an unhealthy way of thinking or a hidden tumour. Patrick believes he is dead. Jennifer's schizophrenia medication helped with her voices but did it cause Parkinson&’s? Emma is in a coma – or is she just refusing to respond? Drawing from Professor David&’s career as a clinician and academic, these fascinating case studies reveal the unique complexity of the human mind, stretching the limits of our understanding.
