Dharma Cards: A Meditation Kit on the Teachings of the Buddha [Paperback]

Priya Hemenway


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

Jan 6 2009
This beautifully designed set offers a simple approach to meditation, as well as an enjoyable way to learn about one of the world’s great masters. Based on Gautama Buddha’s Dhammapada or Way of Truth, the kit includes not only 36 illustrated cards inscribed with the Buddha’s wisdom, but also an illuminating guidebook; together, they’ll help create spiritual harmony in your life. The guide provides an introduction to the Buddha: his birth, search, enlightenment, Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, and much more. It also features information to help you interpret the cards, along with in-depth, individual readings of their text. As you go through the cards, you’ll begin to reflect on the questions all meditators ask—about awareness, distractions, serenity—and find encouragement when you feel disheartened.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful art, beautiful teachings, a wonderful gift Mar 31 2010
By just a thought - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I received Dharma Cards as a gift, and it is a precious one. The cards themselves are beautiful, the teachings concise and inspiring, each one like a small gem of profound poetry. The friend who gave the gift is not a Buddhist, and we both equally enjoyed drawing cards and discussing their words. Highly recommended for anyone already on a Buddhist path, or simply looking for guidance and inspiration in the spiritual practice of daily life.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice illustrations but little else Jan 26 2010

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Well, my title says it all. Too bad the creators of this deck did not comment on the Buddhist significance of the illustrations instead of the collection of well worn quotations that they used. There is another deck of cards having to do with Tibetan Buddhism which is truly inspired but this deck is a dud.
