More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Buddhist masters say that we are in a 'Dark Age'. Terrorist attacks, wars, economic failures and natural disasters have created an atmosphere of fear.Tibetan masters encourage us not to lose heart - catastrophes have happened before and we have overcome them. Robert Sachs shows how Tibetan Buddhist teachings can have a real influence on our personal lives and equally on contemporary politics. He presents traditional Buddhist teachings in a practical, readable style and shows readers how they can help to cultivate the inner resources necessary to meet challenge and conflict - both in themselves and in the world. He presents: the four thoughts that revolutionise the mind; the Four Noble Truths that show us that there is no need to despair; and the four components of action that will change our attitude to life, providing practical instruction on how to act. He also shows us the power of meditation to make a difference and turn the inherent goodness of the human race into positive energy to help transform the world.

A top choice for spiritual readers
10 May 2010
Format:Paperback
The Buddha did not need the divine to receive his enlightened state, he only needed himself. "Becoming Buddha: Awakening the Wisdom and Compassion to Change Your World" is a call to the Buddhist teachings to empower one's own personal responsibility to help one find their own path in life, to embrace the noble truths in one's life and use them to find your way through a dark time, to mediate the days events and choose the best course for one's life. "Becoming Buddha" is an insightful, modern, and spiritual read. "Becoming Buddha" is a top choice for spiritual readers.
