Most insightful book on being a Buddhist I have read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I have read innumberable books on Buddhism, both philosophy and practice. This is the first one to sythesize all the answers to questions I have had about Buddhism. Buddhism for Westerners is not easy to grasp, and after months of study and thinking, this was the first one to hit at all the questions. He speaks on everything from a bit of history to practice--such as behaviour, and what to expect from practice. There are a lot of books out there on Buddhism, but many are so theoretical and obtuse that ardent enthusiasts do not grasp the point. This book is a great source.
