Customer Rating:      Summary: Eight Mindful Steps to Happiness Comment: Eight Mindful Steps to Happiness-Walking the Buddha's Path
The book is extremely clear and poignant. As long time pratitioner of Vipassana Meditation it quite refreshing to come across this book written in plain English of which even a non meditator would be inspired to investigate his or her life. I sincerely wish that if any one reads this book that they experience the richness of visiting Bhavana society .org and go on a personal retreat to bring the richness of the books' message home.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent very approachable material, inspiring Comment: Mindfulness and loving kindness are a couple of great approaches to living advocated by these ancient teachings made into cakewalk reading. When I go back to older more traditional interpretations they feel stiff and inhospitable. For the secular reader especially I think this makes for a pleasantly palatable on ramp to Buddhism.
Customer Rating:      Summary: MUST MUST GET GET BOOK BOOK Comment: Upon my studying of Theravada Buddhism this was my 1st book I read. I'm so glad that it was as it has helped steer me on the correct path. I strongly suggest this book and its sequel.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A must have to compliment your libary Comment: Well written and imparts another aspect that is more specifically written and allows various insights and lessons to come to fluition.
I highly recommend this book by itself, but more importantly, as an additional reference to compliment your collection.
