5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book on Buddhist practice, 10 Nov 1999
By A Customer
I have had a copy of this book for years but my wife borrows it so much I am buying a second copy. While it is not an introductory textbook for those who wish to obtain an overview of the type provided by Walpola Rahula's 'What the Buddha Taught' I know of nothing which explains more clearly the interrelationship between the practice of meditation and the application of Buddhist thought and principles to daily life. Excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an extremely fine introduction to Buddhism!, 23 Sep 1996
By A Customer
This book is a wonderful introduction to the basic teachings of Buddhism. It is very clear and requires no previous exposure to Buddhism. Yet the teachings presented in this book are very deep, very profound. I would strongly recommend this to anyone looking for an introduction to the teachings of the Buddha.

5.0 out of 5 stars the clarity of spring water, 1 May 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Being Nobody Going Nowhere: Meditations on the Buddhist Path (Paperback)
No wonder this book won the Christmas Humphrey's award. It is suitable for beginners, but also for people who have read, studied and practiced Buddhism for several years. I found her simple, clear explanations so helpful. Time and again I got that "Oh, NOW I understand it" feeling. It is a book that I will read several times, once I get it back from the friends who borrowed it!
