Buddhism: Living A Life Of Happiness, Mindfulness & Peace (Present Moment, Dalai Lama, Well Being, Stress Free, Inner Peace, Zen Meditation, Buddha, Taoism)

A real good work done by the author, he really understands & conveys buddhism in a simple language & manner, tis short but best book i read yet is finest for introducing u to Buddhism.

I am a Buddhist in the making,with an enquiring mind...this explains things quite well...couldn't actually put it down,and read long into the night

This book is worth buying

Great!

So as a instruction to Buddhism I give it three stars. I feel like a lot of things where generalized a little to much. Although there are different versions of Buddhism. Leaving out Buddha's quest for enlightenment being started by samsara I feel was a bit much. I understand the author wants to appeal to all religious faiths and this may turn some people away. For his explanation of the 4 nobles truths and the 8 fold path I give 4 stars. Though super basic it is a introduction guide and I believe it was explained pretty well. As far a self help book. I believe anyone trying to better there overall adittude and experience in life should read this. This is where I believed the author excelled at. Thanks for taking time to read my review. I pray enlightenment reaches you in this lifetime.

I found this book a great introduction in Buddhism. It has helped me resume a routine of meditation. It is amazing how relaxing meditation truly is once you give it a chance. You will learn about definition of several life terms, like Happiness and Tolerance. You will learn about the different kinds of Buddhism and you will also learn a short concept for each type mentioned. You will also learn about Meditation, Mindfulness Breathing, Loving Kindness Meditation and some other key concepts like Letting Go, Nirvana, Reincarnation, Karma, Dharma, Mindfulness and its three fundamentals. If you knew nothing at all I think it would be very overwhelming because of the amount of information presented so quickly. It answers some great questions about the practice of Buddhism and I would certainly recommend it.The table of contents is very organized starting with a short biography of the founder, secondly the four basic tenets of Buddhism, and also the different sects of Buddhism found regionally in Asia. The most interesting aspect is that it explains how to actively participate in Buddhism using meditation and mindfulness (self awareness). The different beliefs such as Nirvana, reincarnation, karma etc are also very interesting.This book does a good job of laying out the precepts and principles of Buddhism in a concise and orderly fashion. I think it is a summary of questions that you might have been asking yourself about Buddhism all explained in detail. Easy to read and understand, you'll be well on your way to inner peace in no time. Overall a very concise and quick guide, perfect for any beginners.
