Quite simply one of the best books i have personally ever read in my 27 years.
No amount of views good book reviews could do this book justice, the only thing that could would be if you gave this book to everyone as soon as they learnt to read. The Dalai Lama's is quite a special person who despite everything he has been though in Tibet still has so much warmth and compassion. This book is a simple read yet within it's pages contains so much knowledge and wisdom that if all of us on the planet put into practice the world would be a very different place indeed. Stop reading this review and go and get hold of a copy of this book in anyway you can and simply, enjoy! >>More Details |

This book is filled with contradictions and false assumptions. The patronizing, didactic tone is at first irritating but soon becomes boring.
If you need something to help you sleep at night, this book may be what you're looking for. If you want to learn about Buddhism, look elsewhere. >>More Details |

I have been interested in Buddhism and meditation for many years and have been waiting all that time for a book that is a true 'nuts and bolts' manual of how to meditate. This is the first book I have found that I can totally recommend. It covers the subject with honesty, humour and an amazing level of clarity. For a beginner or experienced meditator, there is no better book that I have seen.
Also, the author has integrity and comes from the traditional Theravada school of Buddhism - beware that there are quite a few dodgy modern 'schools' that use the name of Buddhism in vain. If you are new to Buddhism, I strongly recommend the Theravada school (e.g. Amaravati monastery in the UK). A minor point and it doesn't detract at all ... Read More: >>More Details |

This is an excellent book if you have either a beginner in meditation or advanced meditator. The author gives your tips on how to practice mindfulness meditation, that is how to incorporate it in your daily life. Being a begginner meditator myself I got caught in the process of sitting down and meditating, only to find out that I was running way from reality. This book teaches you how to meditate while you do your dishes, clean your home, listen to music, talk to friends.... It is s a great book. What this book does not is enter into discussion of the practice of mindfulness itself, therefore is better to have some knowledge of the practice before reading the book.

The Little Book of Buddhismby: His Holiness the Dalai Lama November 02, 2000 Best Selling > Books > Buddhism |

This is a book of fortune cookie style utterances. It'll teach you little about Buddhism and is more of a novelty item. It's small though so it would actually fit inside a large fortune cookie!

The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying: A Spiritual Classic from One of the Foremost Interpreters of Tibetan Buddhism to the Westby: Sogyal Rinpoche February 07, 2008 Best Selling > Books > Buddhism |

I read 'The Tibetan Book of Living And Dying' in the course of 10 years - I simply had to stop to digest/meditate after almost every page. It is so filled with advice for the living, the dying, and those inbetween.
You don't have to be a buddhist to benefit from this book. Sogyal Rinpoche is so well founded in western thought and draws on many sources (including Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and Raymond Moody) ...and the writing is very straightforward. I am very much looking forward to read it again ...and to give away a few more copies. >>More Details |

First things first, I completely agree with the many positive reviews already posted. Although I wouldn't have expected it from such a short little book, reading this has taught me simple techniques that have changed my life for the better and made me happier day to day and moment to moment. Hence five stars doesn't really seem enough!!
To review this book from the context of my own life, I have been practicing Buddhism for about a year now. Naturally I have made myself familiar with the theory, and try to practice it, for the benefit of myself and others. Rather than giving a complete overview of Buddhist thought (as many books do), this particular book focuses on just one of the eight practices of the Noble Eightfold Path: Right Mindfulness ...

This book is a life-saver, I have already worn out my first copy and am on to the second. I can honestly say that it is the most helpful book I have ever read. Pema Chodron gets to the heart of life's problems and gives genuine, useful, sane advice. Buy it!

The task Professor Herrigel set himself was to experience true Zen, he did this without realising that abandonment of self was a primary objective. In other words the pratice or the decision to undertake anything very much is a step into the unknown even when the person involved never considers the possibility of his very self undergoing radical change, somehow one believes "I" will always remain afterwards. Little by little Herrigel underwent powerful changes in his Zen experience which literally must be undertaken in an authentic way i.e. by the sort of practice having no limits or bounds, a wholehearted approach somewhat alien to most westerners. The book is an honest and clear account of his experience in Japan and is somewhat akin to that of Jan Whilhelm van ... Read More:
