Buddha, The Word
By: Nyanatiloka (ed.)
Published by: The Floating Press
Buddha, The Word holds the fundamental teachings attributed to Gautama Buddha, including the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. The Four Noble Truths tell us that suffering is an inherent part of existence; that the origin of suffering is ignorance and the main symptoms of that ignorance are attachment and craving; that attachment and craving can be ceased; and that following the Noble Eightfold Path will lead to the cessation of attachment and craving and therefore suffering. The Noble Eightfold Path outlines right understanding, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration.

The countless language freaks whove worn out their copies of Eats, Shoots and Leaves will find inexhaustible distraction in The Meaning of Tingo. Where else will they discover that Bolivians have a word that means I was rather too drunk last night and its all their fault? As for tingo, on Easter Island it means to take all the objects one desires from the house of a friend, one at a time, by borrowing them. Organized by themes such as food, the human body, and sex and love, this irresistible book combs through more than 254 languages in search of those gorgeous oddities that have no direct English counterpartwords so strange and apt that if they didnt exist, they would have to be invented. Highlights from The Meaning of Tingo:. mencomet (Indonesian): stealing things of small value such as food or drinks, partly for fun. scheissbedauern (German): the disappointment one feels when something turns out not nearly as badly as one had hoped. mono-no-aware (Japanese): appreciating the sadness of existence. mahj (Persian): looking beautiful after disease. plimpplamppletteren (Dutch): the skimming of a flat stone as many times as possible across the surface of the water. koshatnik (Russian): a dealer in stolen cats. ava (Tahitian): wife (but also means whisky)
