Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The life and experiences of Gulf War Ace Rick Tollini, in his own words. Eagle pilot Rick "Kluso" Tollini's life has embodied childhood dreams and the reality of what the American experience could produce. In his memoir, Call Sign Kluso, Rick puts the fraught minutes above the Iraqi desert that made him an ace into the context of a full life; exploring how he came to be flying a F-15C in Desert Storm, and how that day became a pivotal moment in his life. Rick's first experience of flying was in a Piper PA-18 over 1960s' California as a small boy, and his love of flying through his teenage years was fostered by his pilot father, eventually blossoming into a decision to join the Air Force as a pilot in his late twenties. Having trained to fly jets he was assigned to fly the F-15 Eagle with the "Dirty Dozen," the 12th Tactical Fighter Squadron, at Kadena AB, Japan before returning Stateside to the 58th Tactical Fighter Squadron "The Gorillas." Throughout training Reagan's fighter pilots expected to face was the Soviet Union, but Rick's first combat deployment was Desert Storm. He recounts the planning, the preparation, and the missions, the life of a fighter pilot in a combat zone and the reality of combat. Rick's aerial victory was one of 16 accumulated by the Gorillas, the most by any squadron during Desert Storm. Returning from the combat skies of Iraq, Rick continued a successful fulfilling Air Force career until, struggling to make sense of his life, he turned to Buddhism. His practice led him to leave the Air Force, to find a new vocation, and to finally come to terms with shooting down that MiG-25 Foxbat in the desert all those years before. Most importantly, he came to a deeper understanding of the importance of our shared humanity. AUTHOR: Rick Tollini, call-sign Kluso, is a freelance writer, live performer, former F-15C Fighter Weapons Officer, and current F-15C flight simulator contract instructor pilot. Kluso is recognised as an expert in the field of Air Superiority operations and tactics. He has also worked as a feature writer for Pacific Star and Stripes weekly journal, CNN Travel contributor, and has recorded and published over 30 original songs. Kluso's unique experience as his unit's primary wartime mission planner for Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm makes him uniquely qualified to speak on this subject matter.

Questo testo presenta una sintesi dei principi che hanno guidato Basho nella sua attività poetica e che hanno ispirato, nei secoli, gran parte dei poeti di questo genere letterario. Nella prima parte viene delineata la nascita dell'haiku, poi l'avvento di Basho e della sua scuola nell'ambiente storico e letterario del suo tempo, la prima metà del XVII secolo, e di seguito vengono descritte le sue originali innovazioni che hanno trasformato una forma poetica secondaria con un carattere divertente e scanzonato in una elevata e profonda, al pari delle forme poetiche classiche. Per descrivere gli insegnamenti che Basho trasmetteva ai suoi diretti discepoli vengono utilizzati due testi con ampie citazioni e traduzioni commentate dalle versioni originali. Si tratta di Sanzoshi e Kyoraisho, entrambi scritti da due diretti discepoli che hanno ascoltato e trascritto gli insegnamenti del maestro. Questo testo vuole essere, allo stesso tempo, una guida per conoscere meglio l'arte poetica dello haiku - e quella di Basho in particolare - e anche fornire indicazioni per quei molti appassionati che recentemente in Occidente si dedicano alla lettura e alla composizione di haiku.

Brossura. Condizione: new. Roma, 2021; br., pp. 316, cm 15,5x21,5.(Civiltà dell'Oriente). Il buddhismo chán si sviluppò fra l'inizio del VII e i primi anni del X secolo, un'epoca particolarmente originale e creativa nella quale furono prodotti testi di ineguagliata profondità. Questo volume presenta la traduzione di una selezione di brani rappresentativi del periodo, corredati dagli originali in cinese, insieme a una ricostruzione della nascita e delle evoluzioni della scuola, utile a inquadrare i testi nella loro dimensione storico-religiosa. La 'ricerca della mente', tema ricorrente degli scritti, coincide con il perseguimento dell'illuminazione; 'trovare' la mente equivale a trovare l'illuminazione. Ma il percorso verso l'illuminazione, o la realizzazione, il perfezionamento spirituale che sfocia nella saggezza, non è un andare verso un luogo o una dimensione altra, bensì un ritornare, un viaggio a ritroso verso il luogo originale da cui l'essere umano è partito. La concezione fondamentale che permette di comprendere questo atteggiamento è che l'essere umano, ma in senso più ampio tutta la realtà, è originariamente illuminato. L'illuminazione quindi sarebbe già data, e nel corso della vita, a causa delle contaminazioni che si accumulano, verrebbe oscurata e dimenticata, pur rimanendo pura nella sua essenza. Riportarla alla luce e far sì che splenda incontaminata come in origine è il percorso di autoconsapevolezza che i seguaci della Via debbono intraprendere. Da qui discende la visione della pratica, ovvero l'abbandono del proprio sé contaminato. La comprensione improvvisa che porta all'illuminazione non può che essere intuitiva e non razionale, un insight dentro la propria natura che fa riscoprire la mente originaria. Lungo questo percorso traspare l'insistenza su un atteggiamento di non coinvolgimento, di ritiro dal mondo e di acquietamento delle passioni, che pur derivando dall'insegnamento buddhista, trova un solido sostegno nelle dottrine autoctone del daoismo, cui spesso si fa riferimento. Libro.
