Unabridged Audiobook
I highly recommend it even if you are just curious about what Buddhism is all about. At the beginning the concepts might seem confusing, but it all ties together very nicely!
There are some good and positive teachings that one can apply to real life even without becoming a buhdist. Chapter nine was a bit hard to understand for me.
I have read a few books on Buddhism for beginners and they all seem to jump right in to how to practice. This book is different. This book gives a great foundation and an overview of what Buddhism entails without overwhelming the reader.
Coming from a place of a non beginner I found the book to be a little repetitive and in a couple of places contradictory. This is a very good place to begin and I found the timeline was extremely useful. I can see myself returning to it in the future. It provided a clear understanding of what was happening in the world related to Buddhism and I found it extremely helpful.
It is helpful in understanding the untracked of the Buddhist philosophy
This was a great book for me as I was interested in learning more about Buddhism. It was an easy read, but very informative. Perfect for someone with little to no knowledge of Buddhism.
The author does a nice job of reviewing the major principles of Buddhism. I was hoping for even more of a breakdown on Buddhism, but was very satisfied with the book. A great start if you are new to Buddhism.
Love this book, really breaks it dawn for you, which for me the simpler the better, I am able to understand it nicely! Would recommend this book! Will visit this book when I want to be inspired time and time again!
Very good for beginners. It is the kind of book that explains everything very simple making it easy to understand and give you the chance to think if you really have the willingness to makes changes in your life....
I loved this book. I'm totally new to the concepts of Buddhism and this was a perfect introduction for me, I highly recommend it even if you are just curious about what Buddhism is all about
