概要
 In this episode I am once joined by Christiana Polites for a bonus episode to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of her independent publishing house, Sky Press Publications. Christiana recounts the origin of Sky Press Publications, her ongoing collaboration with Dr Nida Chengatsang, and reveals why their venture has never had a coherent business plan. Christiana takes us through the entire catalogue with anecdotes and reflections about the publishing and reception of books such as “Karmamudra: The Yoga of Bliss” and “Foundations of Vajrayana Buddhism: A Guide to Yuthok's Healing Path”. Christiana also gives her advice for assembling and leading creative teams and reflects on the future of religious publishing. … Also available on Youtube , iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast’. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 00:51 - A love of books 03:40 - Founding Sky Press Books with Nida Chenagtsang 07:36 - No business plan 10:16 - Print on demand strategy 12:26 - Dual mission of Sky Press Books 14:53 - Moral aim of the karmamudra book 17:25 - Showing Karmamudra: The Yoga of Bliss 18:14 - Medical perspective gives context to Buddhist teaching 20:32 - Religion and culture 22:22 - Criticism of the karmamudra book 24:00 - “Mirror of Light” book tour anecdotes 25:41 - Weapon of Light: Introduction to Ati Yoga Meditation 26:28 - Nejang: Tibetan Self-Healing Yoga 30:19 - Surprisingly powerful practice 31:40 - Nejang vs tsa lung trulkhor movements 33:50 - Foundations of Sowa Rigpa: A Guide to the Root Tantra of Tibetan Medicine 36:18 - Working with Dr Ben Joffe 39:03 - Reflections on building a team 42:38 - Systems that support the vision 44:18 - Supporters and benefactors 47:17 - How does Sky Press fit into the dharma publishing scene? 49:30 - Let Meditation Be Thy Medicine: The Timeless Healing Wisdom of Tibet 50:50 - Foundations of Vajrayana Buddhism: A Guide to Yuthok's Healing Path 52:44 - Translations into foreign languages 53:48 - Using books for home retreat 55:30 - A Guide to Kunye and the External Therapies of Sowa Rigpa 56:40 - The Flight of the Garuda 58:02 - The Sowa Rigpa Journal, including Steve’s article 59:16 - Thoughts about book collecting 01:00:30 - Advice for those who wish to self publish 01:01:40 - The next decade of Sky Press Publications 01:04:47 - Audiobooks, music, and the arts 01:05:34 - Preserving Tibetan teachings
