Buddhism Today

First, let me say that I'm encouraged that Buddhism has a magazine dedicated to its study, and that the magazine is low in ads. I greatly appreciate the effort involved in creating this.

My concern with the issue of Buddhism Today I read through (Fall-Winter 2009) came right away on page 5. I had in my hands "part 2" of the 37 Practices of Bodhisattvas. I am generally bothered by magazines that provide multi-part content. Imagine the scene. I am sitting down with a nice cup of tea, preparing to relax with wonderful content, and I start reading "We have now completed the preliminaries, the seven mind trainings." Wait we did? What preliminaries? Right from the start I get the sense that I've missed out, that it would be fruitless to even try reading this article and "catch up". It's not a good feeling to get at the very beginning of a magazine you were looking forward to reading.

Still, I begin reading the article. The "first" entry in here is the Eighth Verse. I am told that "The teaching of this verse is for practitioners of the lowest category" but I have no idea what the lowest category means. Is that me? Is it practitioners who have been "acting inappropriately" until now? Subsequent verses also refer to things I am unsure of. Maybe it was explained in the previous issue, which I do not have.

Well, OK. On to the next article. This one is "What Happened in Kalimpong?" The intro to the article says "Here I offer a new awareness, beyond the reflections published earlier (1)." The (1) apparently refers to a journal he published in 2008 that has the base story. So now not only do I need to get the previous issue of this magazine, but I also have to get this book as well in order to understand the current issue.

We do then get to self contained articles with interesting content and lovely photos. I like that the image on page 28 is of a dark skinned woman, showing that all people of all backgrounds can enjoy Buddhism. I enjoy the writing style, and the layout is lovely. But the magazine is only 45 pages long and if you take out the table of contents and other similar pages, there isn't that much left which was able to be read as is.

If they really couldn't afford to put the entire Bodhisattva article in one issue for some reason, I would at least have done a substantial effort at summarizing the entire first article so that newcomers didn't feel quite as lost.

It makes me hesitant to pick up any future issues. Which is a shame, because the other articles were enjoyable.

Best magazine available of its kind. The articles are very insightful and really helpful. I have nearly all of the issues, and they just keep getting better and better. A full set is like having a library about Buddhism.

For those wanting a modern view on Buddhist teachings this magazine is it. It is put together very well, and has more articles than advertisements...a rare occurance in magazines today.

This is an excellent resource for Buddhist teachings, mostly within the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism but also accessible to anyone who simply has an interest in Buddhism in today's world. Very nicely done.

This is a good read if you are interested in the world view of Buddhism. Mostly interviews and politics. It doesn't add anything to my practice of the way. But I will probably renew it because I did learn stuff.

I like this magazine for its puzzles which keep me busy all week until the next magazine arrives.

Delivery is prompt, articles are interesting and the food and flower sections are worth copying. The little gossip stories of the royal and famous are entertaining.

Woodsmith

Over the years, I have subscribed to several woodworking publications. While I am no woodworking wizard, I am an enthusiast who find the projects and writing of the Woodsmith staff to be among the best I have read. The pages are durable (unlike the cheap paper found in some magazines), the projects are interesting, the work shop projects and jigs are fun and best of all, no advertisements to weed through. Just page after page of useful information. Each magazine provides a cutlist (nothing unique to Woodsmith) and specific information for hardware (where to get it, the product number and finish) or other misc materials they use in their projects. They also have free woodworking videos online.

I actually read the magazine that this site Woodsmith.com supports. There are no surprises here. The site and the magazine shows tools and techniques of building art and practical objects from wood. There are detailed plans for many desirable objects.

A practical example is the making of dovetails. I am not an artist. So it takes practice. Well if you are rich there are tools that make them perfect every time. So what is the alternative? It is technique and the magazine shows how to measure twice and cut once. You can actually become a wood smith.

The site its self is more than just a composite or supplement to their magazine. It is easy to navigate to fine all kinds of recourses and tips. You can also purchase Binders to hold and keep your Woodsmith magazines.

My husband and I are still outfitting our house to make it a home. This magazine is loaded with ideas and full project plans for furniture, descriptions of the proper aspects to look for in tools, plans for setting up your workshop and making your own jigs plus tips! Our 100+ year old home has certainly benefited from this magazine and my husband now has a fulfilling and useful hobby!

There are two magazines on woodworking that no one should be without; Woodsmith and Fine Woodworking. Both are excellent and I have every issue.

I missed a couple of years of Woodsmith because I thought I was not going to do much in woodworking again since I also have other hobbies, and the house we have now is too full with furniture I made from both magazines, and of my own design. Now we are building a new house, my interest has been renewed, and that is what I did again with Woodsmith, I started up the subscription again. As soon as I figure out where I left off, I will be getting the back issues I missed, or the DVD (which I got recently with the FW magazine, well worth it too, so I might spring for the Woodsmith DVD).

The pages are thick, not flimsy like other magazines, and will last a lifetime. The first issue of Woodsmith is still as new as ever, and I have been keeping them all in the binders they also sell; helps keep everything in one place and the binders are very nice too, they have a slight padding inside the vinyl of the face and back of the binder.

I have built many projects from Woodsmith, including a secretary bookcase in a Chippendale style, where the bottom of the desk came from Woodsmith, the top from FW. Without these magazines, I would not have been able to do either, so that alone is worth every penny I spent on the subscriptions. Of course, I have built several other projects too. But these magazines make it so easy to do.

This is an awesome woodworkers magazine that has the most beautiful projects and the complete instructions to go along with them. It also has tips and tricks to aid you with your project from the magazine or on your own projects. I highly recommend this magazine and also recommend purchasing magazine through amazon.com, they offer great deals and if you renew a sub there is no delay in delivery.

Home Shop Machinist

This magazine is a gem and although not the only magazine available on the subject, it is one of a very few worldwide. The contents are of practical use to those who are not metal machinists by original training, yet of necessity, must machine metal; it also is useful to those who are already competent machinists. Machining metal is a skill that society cannot afford to lose as it is still essential to the production of almost every manufactured item. As a scientist building lab equipment and robotic components I find this magazine a very useful source of knowledge and for those who may be contemplating metal working as a hobby or occupation I highly recommend this magazine and it's companion, Digital Machinist. This magazine (like some others) provides extra value by introducing readers to advertisers who supply materials, parts, tools and knowledge that cannot always be easily acquired in any other fashion (even a search of the web). The vast weight of machining knowledge that is behind this magazine, its contributors and advertisers is clear. My only plea is that each issue be longer!

Get mag for home or shop metal working. This mag has a diverse range of ideas, projects, and ideas. Great Mag.

This has lots of great ideas for the guy with a lathe and drill press in the basement. Lots of neat ideas for doing things without a major company to back you. Nice for the guy who wants to turn junk into useful items.

For those lucky few with a metal shop in their basement, or a long suppressed desire to have a metal shop in their basement, this is an essential read. Of all my magazine subscriptions Home Shop Machinist is the one that I look forward to the most. Home Shop Machinist provides detailed descriptions of projects built by other hobbyists that range from incredibly simple to incredibly complex. Each of the articles is accompanied by numerous photos illustrating each step in the build. The educational value of hearing from other machinists is incredible. If you're into making chips this is the one magazine to scratch that itch.
