  • This book provides esoteric insights into many aspects of Buddhist philosophy. The nature of the karma that governs all phenomenal appearances in the three worlds of samsâra is examined. From basic understandings of karma, the book proceeds to expound the subtle intricacies of the mode of manifestation of all aspects of this basic law. Bodo explains that many traditional beliefs about karma are simplified “truths” that had their genesis in the infancy of humanity’s ability to logically enquire. 290 pages, hardcover  ©2006
  • Ahimsa is an inspiring and enlightening book, food for thought for any practicing Buddhist or anyone who is interested in becoming a more compassionate being. As Buddhists and Bodhisattvas we must meditate on the effects of every action and thought we are involved in if we are to resolve all Karma and act with true all embracive compassion for all sentient beings. Ahimsa means ‘harmlessness’, carried out in thought, word or deed. A major precept of Buddhists of all denominations is to practice harmlessness. Such activity is not supposed to be theory, but a practical fact, a sacred pledge (samaya) integrated into the fiber of one’s every mode of conduct on the path to enlightenment and liberation from the samsâra. However, as this text elaborates, all good intent along this line falls flat in the light of the practice condoned by many Buddhists of meat consumption. Harm is thus caused to the animal butchered, to the consumer of the flesh, and to the environment we live in. 152 pages, hardcover  ©2004
