Parkite Lisa Loomis writes her first children's book
November 16, 2012
Lisa Loomis, a Park City-based author who has published three adult novels "Boy in a Band," "Casanova Cowboy" and "Gem Rats since 2009, has penned her first children's book.
"Finn & Geo's Winter Adventure," a picture book for ages eight and younger, is about two puffins who learn how to ski and snowboard at Park City Mountain Resort.
The book, like Loomis' others are available in book format and for the Kindle eReader at http://www.amazon.com and at Dolly's Bookstore. In fact, Loomis will be at Dolly's 510 Main St., today, Nov. 17, at 2 p.m. to sign her new book.
"Finn & Geo's Winter Adventure" started off as a dog book.
"I have a friend, artist Kit Teasdel, who wanted to do a book about dogs," Loomis said. "I talked with Sue Fassett, the manager of Dolly's, about the possibility of that project."
Fassett told Loomis that she had an abundance of children's books about dogs.

"She said she needed a book about skiing and snowboarding, because there weren't a lot of young children's books about those sports," Loomis said. "So, Kit and I came up with a book about these two puffins, and at the back of the book, there is a little blurb about what puffins really are."
The project began with Teasdel's art.
"The pictures in the book are taken from original acrylic-on-canvas works," Loomis explained. "Kit's artwork is whimsical and fun."
For six months, the two worked together on the project.
"Kit had to paint the art and then we had to convert the paintings into workable files for the book," Loomis said. "I didn't know how much I had to take on until we started."
While formatting the art was difficult, Loomis found writing a children's book is very different than writing a book for adults.
"I had to find myself in a different mindset to make my sentences easier," she said. "I had a lot of input from people who helped me simplify my words, and I also spent a lot of time at Dolly's looking at children's books."
Throughout the process, Loomis learned new things and made a lot of mistakes.
"The self-publishing world has been a great learning curve for me and it's a good avenue for authors, because of how the book industry has changed," Loomis said. "I've learned so much since my first book, but there were still many things that I didn't know, because it was a transition for me. It was like starting over."
After the book was printed, Loomis gave it to a friend who read it to her son.
"He enjoyed the book and laughed at the pictures, and that was fun to see," Loomis said. "The thing I like the most is to see kids enjoy it."
That enjoyment led to her decision to donate 20 books to the Peace House, a nonprofit organization dedicated to end domestic violence in Summit and Wasatch counties through education, outreach, support-services and shelter.
"I think Peace House is a great local resource for families, and there are children who are there because of uncomfortable situations," Loomis said. "They are not in their own environment, and I thought it would be a nice thing to take their minds off of their situation."
Loomis' respect for Peace House and its mission stems from her prior career as a property manager.
"My husband is a general contractor and owns Loomis Construction and I owned Loomis Property Management, which was a mortgage branch in town," she said. "When I was doing mortgages, the Peace House was a huge presence for me. They have the luxury home tour with the Park City Board of Realtors Philanthropic Foundation, and I was very involved in volunteering for the Peace House and our two companies donated to them as well."
Loomis began writing books when the economy crashed in 2008.
"When the financial meltdown came, our careers went away," she said. "So, with my frustration going through this tumultuous time, I started writing as an outlet."
While the past five years have been tight financially for her family, Loomis has enjoyed the self-publishing experience.
"It's been good for me because I don't think I would have ever gone back to my creative side," she said.
Once she started writing, the ideas kept coming. In addition to the three novels, Loomis has finished another, which is in the process of being edited.
"It's called 'A Horse Named Joe' and takes place on a small island in the Bahamas," she said. "I'm also currently writing two more. One is about a local girl's life story. She has a learning disability and recently became a new mother. So the book is about her journey." The other book is a young-adult story about a kid that grows up in a small town and leaves to explore the world, she said.
"It's funny, because sometimes I'll sit down at the computer and think to myself, 'I can't write a book,'" Loomis said with a laugh. "And then I'll go, 'What are you saying? You've already written four books!'
"I think all artists have those self doubts, but in the end, I just can't stay away from it," she said. "I love writing."
To date, Loomis has completed a new children's book, but has put it on hold to see how "Finn & Geo's Winter Adventure" does.
"I hope people who come and stay for a winter vacation, will pick it up for their children so they can all go home are remember their adventures in Park City together," Loomis said.
Author Lisa Loomis will be at Dolly's Bookstore, 510 Main St., to sign her new children's book "Finn & Geo's Winter Adventure" at 2 p.m. For more information, visit http://www.lisaloomisbooks.com .

When buying a target slipper chair for your home, it is always important to set aside a fixed budget for your purchase. You also need to know what type of chair you would require, and for what purpose. Explode different options, like evenflo convertible high chair or chair and a half recliner, depending on your requirements. Before making your purchase, always ask some important questions, like whether your ethan allen wingback chair has a warranty, whether your purchase comes with free shipping and assembling, and how to maintain your arm chair set in tip-top condition.
And then there are mid century side chair to relax on, like your white side chair, eames side chair, tufted side chair or a leather wingback chair.

In the meantime, I feel like I have to address Detroit's recent ill fortune. After starting the season with five impressive wins, Detroit has fallen to Washington in a 7-1 laugher and a 4-1 defeat at the hands of the Columbus Blue Jackets. A little bit of controversy surrounds both of these games as the starting goaltender was...wait for it...Ty Conklin. Yes, that fellow who played in the first three outdoor games, including Detroit's 6-4 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. He's had a rough couple of starts but I'm here to say everything is going to be alright for Ty.
At first everyone was impressed with Ty's shutout in the game against Colorado. It was a fine 29 save performance, no doubt. The follow up to Conklin's impressive showing was perhaps the most embarrassing loss I have ever seen Detroit suffer in the regular season since I became a hockey fan when I was about eight years old. Nothing went right. Not to pin it all on Conklin, but there were key moments where big saves needed to be made and it didn't happen. Needless to say it was an ugly game that made Conklin look like a buffoon. The next game for Conklin was a short-notice start against the Blue Jackets on Tuesday. In lieu of Jimmy Howard and his wife bringing a brand new baby and future Detroit Red Wing legend into this world, Conklin was peppered with 31 shots, three of which went in. Not the worst performance but when your team can't muster more than a single goal, it's not good enough.
So two bad starts after one really good one leaves people wondering what the deal is in Detroit. The schedule is not going to get any easier this season and while I give all due credit to the Washington juggernaut, the game with the Blue Jackets should have gone better. I say this knowing that Columbus was very hungry for a win and the return of James Wisniewski was a huge boost to their team. The question some Wings fans may be wondering: is Ty Conklin going to be alright for us backing up Jimmy Howard? Is goaltending depth a concern?
Yes, he is. No, it is not.
To put it very succinctly, Ty Conklin is a good goaltender. He has yet to grab the brass ring and be the number one guy on a team, but I would argue he doesn't need to be as he puts up great numbers as the backup. He was 18-8 in Pittsburgh in '08 and he was 25-11 in Detroit in '09. He's still on a great team today in Detroit, so I think it's fair to say he should be able to perform to those levels should he need to.
Unfortunately, lots of people remember the infamous blunder in Game One of the Stanley Cup Finals in 2006:
Apologies for the poor quality and apologies to any Oilers fans out there who still have a sore spot over that. The fallout from Conklin's Folly did irreparable damage to his time in Edmonton, but like a cat hurled from atop the dining room table, Conklin landed on his feet in Pittsburgh and continuum the momentum in Detroit. As a Red Wing, Conklin went 25-11 in 40 games with a 2.51 GAA and a .909 save percentage. His time in St. Louis was less pleasant, barely putting up a .500 win percentage and posting some really cruddy numbers. After two seasons in St. Louis, Conklin is back and that is where we are today.
Last time Conklin was here, he put up great numbers for a backup goaltender. I can't think of another backup kicking around the league right now who put up a strong showing strictly as the backup. Hopefully in the coming months we see more of this:
And less of the bad stuff we saw last week. As I said about Detroit's PP problems and faceoff struggles, it's no reason to be alarmed this early in the season, and in the end Detroit finds a way to continue to improve itself. Conklin's two bad games aren't cause for alarm. Yet.
Furthermore, I think that Joey MacDonald serving as our number three guy adds a level of security that Detroit lacked last year. I can sleep soundly at night knowing that if our top guy falls, our backup Ty Conklin can come in and do just fine.

David Cutcliffe announced on Thursday the promotion of Jeffrey Faris to assistant coach. Faris, who has served as a graduate assistant coach the past two seasons, will coach the Blue Devil wide receivers.DURHAM, N.C. – Duke head coach
"I'm excited to say that Jeff Faris will be joining our staff as our wide receivers coach," Cutcliffe said. "Jeff's qualified in every area. He's going to be an outstanding coach. We welcome Jeff and look forward to many contributions for many years."
Faris, who worked alongside Scottie Montgomery with the wide receivers last season, inherits a receiving unit spearheaded by returning starters Jamison Crowder and Max McCaffrey. Crowder was a first team all-league pick in 2013 after establishing an ACC single-season record with 108 pass receptions for 1,360 yards and eight touchdowns while McCaffrey had 26 catches for 282 yards and four touchdowns.
Four other lettermen return in Johnell Barnes (15 receptions, 217 yards in 2013), Issac Blakeney (19 receptions, 244 yards, 4 TDs), Anthony Nash (3 receptions, 31 yards) and Ryan Smith (2 receptions, 41 yards). Duke is the only team in the ACC to boast three returning wide receivers who each caught four or more touchdown receptions last season.
"I am thrilled with this opportunity to represent my alma mater as an assistant coach," Faris said. "During my time at Duke, both as a student-athlete and coach, I have been surrounded by tremendous mentors -- most notably Coach Cutcliffe -- who have taught me not only about the game of football, but also the importance of impacting young people. I am a proud Duke man and the tools I have acquired from this great university and football program will allow me to pursue excellence every day. I look forward to helping our players make the most out of the myriad of opportunities that this world class institution provides."
A four-year member of the Duke football program as a defensive back from 2008-11, Faris graduated from Duke in 2011 with a degree in economics. In 2009, he earned the Mike Suglia Award, an honor presented annually to the sophomore member of the Duke football program who best exemplifies the academic and athletic qualities of the late Mike Suglia.
In 2011, Faris received the Micah Harris Trinity Teammate Award which is presented each season to a Duke player who displays the traits of a true teammate — character, unselfishness, compassion and pride. In the spring of 2011, Faris was honored by the ACC with a Top 6 For Service award.
Faris, a native of Knoxville, Tenn., earned a master's degree in economics in 2012 and is currently pursuing a master's degree in Christian studies.

Re: "Pueblo's lesson for the EPA," Aug. 3 Vincent Carroll column.
Citing Pueblo's abrupt transition from coal to gas, Vincent Carroll is justifiably concerned about the economic impacts of the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan.
The EPA is now taking comments on how states can reach the goal of 30 percent reduction of CO2 emissions from power plants by 2030. In its draft proposal, the EPA has not offered the market-based solution of a state carbon tax. A study by Regional Economic Models, Inc. found that a carbon tax in California would increase GDP and add hundreds of thousands of jobs while significantly reducing CO2 emissions, provided the revenue is returned to the public, either as tax cuts or direct payments. Other states would achieve similar benefits. If the EPA would allow for a state revenue-neutral carbon tax as an option to reach its goals, states would achieve even deeper cuts in their CO2 emissions while strengthening their economies.

I feel pretty unhappy that this Wiki appears not have a licence, despite a claim to the contrary that brought me to this page. What's wrong with the standard licence?
Roger Williams
Yes, the confusion should be cleared up. The note at the bottom of this editing page says that the GNU Free Documentation License is used, altho elsewhere in this wiki it suggests it is not decided. Clarity is needed.
Fred Swartz
Can you nail down this license issue with the wiki. I want to make sure everyone feels comfortable with adding content to the wiki and knowing their work won't be exploited.
Thanks !
I hadn't noticed that there was a GFDL license statement at the bottom whenever a page is edited. This means that all the existing content is already under the GFDL and that adding or changing licenses at this stage is probably impractical.
This is fine, the GFDL license is good enough. I've modified the text in License and PanoTools:Copyrights to point this out explicitly. If you find time it would be useful to put a statement in the footer of each page.
By the way, the one thing that is common with all these 'Open Source' licenses is that exploiting the work is encouraged. There is nothing to stop somebody taking the whole thing and repackaging it as a book for sale.
How about adding it to the "Disclaimers" page? This shows up at the bottom of each page.
I'd like to change
"All content added to this site so far is licensed under the GFDL with no "Invariant sections" or "Cover Texts"."
"All content added to this site is copyrighted by its respective editors and licensed under the GFDL with no "Invariant sections" or "Cover Texts"."
This clarifies that content is still copyrighted by its creators, and licensed under GFDL - GFDL doesn't override copyright.
The other option (which may require a lot more discussion) would be to require all content copyright to be transferred to the PanoTools wiki owner. The major distinction here is that if copyright is maintained by individual creators then you need their consent (in each case) for license changes. if the wiki owner maintains copyright then he may re-license the Wiki content as he desires.
Yes change the text
It should be clarified that contributions are copyright by the individual authors.
Might as well remove the stuff about possible future GPL or Creative Commons licenses, as it isn't possible to relicense the existing content without everyone agreeing.

LONDON (Reuters) - Tennis fans will descend on Wimbledon from Sunday to join Britain's line of the year in which thousands wait patiently to see their sporting idols during the two week championship.
Thousands will camp out overnight or arrive at dawn each day to join the line, known as The Queue, which has become as much a tradition at the world's oldest tennis tournament that dates back to 1877 as strawberries and cream - and rain.
For Wimbledon is one of the few major British sporting events where people can still buy premium tickets on the day, if they are prepared to spend up to 24 hours in a line.
But newcomers beware because The Queue has transformed over the years to epitomize the British obsession for orderly lines, with strict rules ensuring fairness and civility and a list of websites and Twitter accounts giving tips on how to queue.
"QUEUE JUMPING IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND WILL NOT BE TOLERATED," shouts a message on the Wimbledon website.
As people join the line they are handed a card that is dated and numbered and has to be given in at the ticket office where several thousand tickets are sold daily at 20 pounds ($31) each for unreserved seating and standing room on courts 3-19.
Wristbands are issued only to those at the front of the line, who then pay from 45 pounds ($70) for one of the 1,500 tickets available each day for the top three courts - Centre, One, and Two.
The rules, set by Wimbledon's organizers, the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC), state no saving places for others, no reserving spots with equipment then nipping off somewhere more comfortable, and no loud music in the line.
A Wimbledon spokesman said the rules were introduced about 10 years ago to ensure fairness and were refined over the years - and the line has grown ever since.
Veterans of The Queue enjoy their annual wait almost as much as the tournament, relishing the quintessential British art of queuing that etiquette experts say dates back to the world wars last century when Britons had to line up for food rations.
For six years Dex Hill, 18, a student at London's Kingston University, has been among the first to set up his tent in the line that starts at 8 a.m. on Sunday, and he will be there this year, hoping to get a good ticket for the Monday start.
"Being in the queue is really good fun because everyone is there for the same reason, talks tennis, and there is almost a party atmosphere," Hill told Reuters.
"Tips? Get there early and be prepared for any weather."
Jo Bryant, etiquette advisor from Britain's authority on manners, Debrett's, said the art of queuing must seem esoteric at best and maddening at worst to foreigners.
"But queue-barging is the worst solecism a foreigner can commit. Even the reticent English will feel justified in sharply pointing out the back of the line to any errant queue-jumpers," Bryant told Reuters.
The fans in line, however, do have to cope with Britain's fickle summer weather and the standing joke in Britain is that tennis fortnight means rain.
Meteorologists from Britain's national weather service, the Met Office, predict scattered showers for Wimbledon next week.
Rain stopping play prompted the AELTC to install a retractable roof on its main Centre Court four years ago and the club this year announced plans to put a roof on Court 1 by 2019.
Whatever the forecast, up to 38,500 tennis fans are expected daily at the All England Club in Wimbledon, south London, as the event is as much social as sporting with corporate tents galore.
Over the two weeks 8,615 punnets of strawberries and 200,000 glasses of the traditional cocktail Pimm's will be sold as players battle for the record 1.6 million pounds top prize money.
"There really is nothing quite like Wimbledon," Hill said.
($1 = 0.6466 British pounds)

Energy Pipeline: Study finds frac ban would cost Colorado billions of dollars
Fracking ban ramification
A study conducted by the University of Colorado-Boulder Leeds School of Business examined the possible implications of a statewide ban on fracking activities. The report found that the industry in Colorado was as big as the construction or accommodations and food services industry in 2011. Assuming a fracking ban was implemented in 2015, the state would lose:
» $8 billion in gross domestic product.
» 68,000 jobs.
» From 2015 to 2040, it would mean an average of $12 billion less in GDP and 93,000 fewer jobs.
» A loss of $567 million to Colorado governmental jurisdictions in direct revenue in the first five years, and $985 million by 2040.
Source: Leeds School of Business, University of Colorado - Boulder.
A new study of the economic effects of a potential statewide ban on hydraulic fracturing shows that Colorado and Weld County would lose out on thousands of jobs and millions in tax revenues.
The University of Colorado Leeds School of Business recently released a study on the economic impacts of a potential statewide fracking ban, finding that in the first five years, the economy would lose $8 billion in gross domestic product, roughly 68,000 jobs and $567 million in tax revenue that's pumped into state and local coffers. Those numbers would be projected to grow to a $12 billion loss in GDP, 93,000 fewer jobs and a $985 million loss in tax revenues by 2040 as oil and gas production would sink to 20 year lows, according to the study.
"I really hope this is an informative piece for people to understand another aspect of the economy, specifically oil and gas," said Brian Lewandowski, an author of the study and a research associate with the Leeds School of Business at CU. "It resonates with me how big of an impact this industry has on our economy in terms of jobs, wages, personal income and spending in the state.
"There's a lot to risk there if that were to go away," he said. "It's not the only thing, of course, to consider when making policy decisions, but it should be part of the conversation."
The study, commissioned by the Common Sense Policy Roundtable, the Denver South Economic Development Partnership and the Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation, was prompted by bans and moratoria put in place in five communities in the last two years, as well as plans by residents to bring forth ballot measures this fall that would in effect ban hydraulic fracturing, by allowing communities "local control" over placement of oil and gas drilling in local communities.
A group called Local Control Colorado has already submitted language to the state for a ballot issue this fall that would allow local governments to essentially "de-Bruce" from existing state law by allowing communities to decide for themselves their tolerance for the industry and its practices in their borders.
"This is part of an expensive campaign by the industry to scare voters," Laura Fronckiewicz, a leader in Local Control Colorado, told the Denver Post in response to the study. "This isn't about banning fracking, it is about giving communities the ability to put some controls on development — community by community."
The Leeds study used an economic modeling system developed by Regional Economic Models Inc.
To put it into perspective, Lewandowski said the state lost about 160,000 jobs during the recession. He said the oil and gas industry in 2012 was the equivalent size of the construction industry, or the accommodation and food service industry.
"If you scale back any of these in any great magnitude, it will have negative repercussions," Lewandowski said. "But oil and gas is a high GDP-per employee industry, and a high wage per employee, and it has a pretty intensive supply chain, so a lot of goods or services are bought because it's inherently local."
That would mean a negative impact on disposable income, which would in turn impact consumer-supported industries, such as retail and real estate, the study stated.
Additionally, the impacts would be statewide, as the oil and gas industry is represented in all counties, while 87 percent of the oil and gas activity is concentrated in five counties, Lewandowski said.
The five largest-producing counties represent 35 percent of upstream and midstream employment; the 31 smallest-producing counties represent 29 percent, and the 28 nonproducing counties account for 36 percent, according to the study.
Weld County would stand to lose the most, as most of the oil and gas activity is now centered in its prolific Wattenberg Field and the northeastern plains. Anadarko and Noble, just two of about 30 operators in Weld, plan to spend billions in Weld in the next few years.
Doug Flanders, policy director for the Colorado Oil and Gas Association, called the study groundbreaking, confirming that "a ban on fracking would send shockwaves through our economy. The loss of jobs and the severe decline in economic output would be staggering. Every family in Colorado would be affected."
"If we say 'no' to fracking, we say 'no' to nearly a hundred thousand Coloradans and their families whose jobs and livelihoods would be lost," Flanders said in an email statement. "Plus, the loss of billions of dollars for our schools, parks, and roads."
The study also was welcomed by Coloradans for Responsible Energy Development, a lobby funded by Colorado's big exploration giants: Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy, in that it exposes the consequences of bans.
"This study will dispel some of the misinformation about fracking and help everyday citizens better understand the issue at hand, while also illustrating how energy is interwoven throughout Colorado's economy and the benefits it brings to all of us," said Jon Haubert, communications director for CRED. "Coloradans now have a crystal clear understanding of the cost to them personally if oil and natural gas out is removed from the equation via a ban or moratorium on fracking."

The cast gadrooned design on the body and the cast beading on the handles of the cups are unique in American pewter, although these details are often seen on silver objects. Their use was probably ecclesiastical. Because of their design and size, the four cups are ranked among the great pieces of American pewter.

(Part three of a three-part series)
To U.S. investors, buying a piece of a toll road company in one of China's fastest-growing provinces might have seemed like a pretty safe bet.
But the twists and turns at China Infrastructure Investment Ltd. (Pink Sheets: CIIC) have taken the company from the Nasdaq to the Pink Sheets and wiped out much of its market capitalization, which once topped $400 million.
A Sharesleuth investigation found that certain undisclosed parties profited handsomely from the reverse merger that brought the company public, by buying 21.9 million shares from the former chief executive of the U.S. shell it combined with.
Securities and Exchange Commission filings show that the ex-CEO, Fred L. Hall, sold the stock for $72,500 just days after the reverse merger, in February 2008.
The sale price translates to less than 0.4 cents a share. At the time, the company's stock was trading on the open market for more than $4.
Whoever got Hall's stock appears to have resold much of it during periodic surges in trading volume in 2009 and 2010. Based on China Infrastructure Investment's share prices in those periods, it's possible that the seller or sellers could have collected $20 million or more.
Our investigation also found that the holding company that owned a majority stake in China Infrastructure Investment at the time it went public might have ended up with some of Hall's stock.
SEC filings show that the holding company boosted its stake by more than 13 million shares over a two-year period, without disclosing any changes in its ownership, as required under federal securities law.

There are two main types of Life Insurance that are the most sought after – Term Life and Permanent Life Insurance
Johns Creek, GA Term Life Insurance
Term Insurance Insurance is life insurance that is for a specified period of time typically between 10 and 30 years. If the insured outlives the period of time no payout is made. You can usually renew the period as long as you medically qualify up to an age of 70 – 80 years old. This is the least expensive type of life insurance which protects your family in the event of your premature death. If the wage earner is deceased, the family would loose the income that is generated by the wage earner(s) so a life insurance pay-out would off-set the lost income of the deceased. Proponants of Permanent Life Insurance would use the analagy that term life insurance is like renting verses owning a home. The family is protected by the term life insurance but you don't get to keep it. If the insured survives the specified term the insurance disappears. The philosophy behind term life insurance is that when you are relatively young you tend to have young children, expenses, some debt and minimal savings. As you get older the idea is that you tend not to need life insurance because you should have less debt, the children will have grown and left the home and the family should theoretically has a good amount of savings. I repeat, IN THEORY the need for insurance is unnecessary. I have never met a beneficiary that complained that they received too much in life insurance proceeds.
Johns Creek, GA Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent Life Insurance is life insurance that is created to last for the entire lifetime of the insured. It will be a higher premium but will allow you to have a number of options you could not get from any other financial instrument. One advantage is that when you pre-decease your beneficiaries you will leave them with a sum of money that in theory, they will not need but will be very grateful to have and it will allow them more options than if they had no life insurance proceeds. Another benefit is the tax advantages – not only does your cash value accumulate tax deferred but you can pull out the cash as tax free income in later years when you retire. Proponants of Term Life insurance would tell you that you will end up with more money at retirement age if you buy term and invest the difference rather than placing the same amount of money into a permanent life policy. On the surface this may be true, but if you take a close look you will find that premise to be false. When you calculate the tax advantages and the safety of the cash accumulation you will come out way ahead with permanent life insurance?

Seriously, how much would you pay??
I know a good guitar is worth some dough, I've struggled trying to with cheaper guitars where the sound just falls of your fingers with a good one.
The elusive tone... Is it all in the guitar? I will never sound like SRV because I will never be SRV, so how much is his number 1 wife worth as an instrument?
I ask because I have only just recovered from seeing a 59-62 (can't remember the exact year) Les Paul on eBay for £105,000.00 (sterling).
Now I have just seen Les Paul's own white one for sale at $500,000.00.

Maitreya's Mahayanasutralamkara with Commentaries by Khenpo Shenga and Ju MiphamDetails
The Buddhist masterpiece Ornament of the Great Vehicle Sūtras, often referred to by its Sanskrit title, Mahāyānasūtrālaṃkāra, is part of a collection known as the Five Maitreya Teachings, a set of philosophical works that have become classics of the Indian Buddhist tradition. Maitreya, the Buddha's regent, is held to have entrusted these profound and vast instructions to the master Asaṅga in the heavenly realm of Tuṣita.
The Ornament provides a comprehensive description of the bodhisattva's view, meditation, and enlightened activities. Bodhisattvas are beings who, out of vast love for all sentient beings, have dedicated themselves to the task of becoming fully awakened buddhas, capable of helping all beings in innumerable and vast ways to become enlightened themselves. To fully awaken requires practicing great generosity, patience, energy, discipline, concentration, and wisdom, and Maitreya's text explains what these enlightened qualities are and how to develop them. This volume includes commentaries by Khenpo Shenga and Ju Mipham, whose discussions illuminate the subtleties of the root text and provide valuable insight into how to practice the way of the bodhisattva. Drawing on the Indian masters Vasubandhu and, in particular, Sthiramati, Mipham explains the Ornament with eloquence and brilliant clarity. This commentary is among his most treasured works.News & Reviews
"In his Five Teachings the protector Maitreya, the Regent who has mastered the ten grounds, reveals fully and flawlessly the view, meditation, conduct, and fruition that are accomplished through the Great Vehicle. With utmost profundity his teachings reach far and wide; they are a treasury of scripture, reasoning, and oral instruction." —Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche
"Although one of the most important and frequently cited texts in Mahāyāna Buddhism, the Ornament has received comparatively little attention in scholarly literature, and its reception by Tibetan scholars is not well known. Fortunately, the Dharmachakra Translation Committee has now made available Ornament along with, for the first time, commentaries by two of the most influential scholar-practitioners of the Tibetan 'Non-Sectarian,' or Rimé, movement. This outstanding translation is a precious resource of serious scholars and practitioners alike." —John Dunne, author of Foundations of Dharmakīrti's Philosophy
"The Mahāyānasūtrālaṃkāra was central in establishing Mahāyāna Buddhism in India. This treatise was one of the earliest and most comprehensive Indian manuals of Mahāyāna thought and practice, systematizing concepts of base, path, fruit, epistemology, buddhology, ritual, and meditation from a wide array of early Mahāyāna scriptures. The translators have rendered this text, together with two of its most informative Tibetan commentaries, into the most accessible and readable English now available. For the systematic study and practice of Mahāyāna Buddhism, there is no better classical source than this." —John Makransky, Associate Professor of Buddhism, Boston CollegeReader Reviews
