If every person who is looking to meet someone and be happy in a relationship would read this book and share it with loved ones, the divorce rate would plummet! Even if you've never studied Buddhism and are not even interested in it, this book is so easy to read and understand and apply in your daily life, whether you are lonely and have given up on meeting anyone or if you have been meeting the wrong ones, this book is a shining light and gives one hope that it is possible to be in a loving, committed, honest relationship!

I don't know about Dr. Kasl's previously written "Finding Joy", but "If the Buddha Dated" is a joy in itself. This, among all the self-help, meditation and Buddhist books has done more in helping me get to the bottom of fear than anything I've read to date.
Void of the formulaic speeches of dating do's and don'ts, Kasl first encourages self-love through some serious but compassionate "homework" -- getting to the heart of old filters and past hurts that play like a broken record. I love that she is multispiritual, borrowing from Buddhism, Sufism (new to me!) and her orginal Quaker roots, all of which promote spiritual discovery. Now when I meditate, scary as it is, the purpose is clear. "Sit down and suffer your terror, talk with your Buddha nature, stay put and breathe." A breath of fresh air, for sure.
I haven't even considered the "dating" part, so entranced am I with this clear, solid approach to the Path. I highly recommend this book for those in search of personal growth and bonding with others.

This book is a joy. Dr Kasl is multispiritual, with an interest in many faiths including Buddhism and Sufism. It is far easier to read than most of the other "enlightenment", self-help and meditation books out there. I have not read "Finding Joy" or "I'm With Big Nose: Double-Dating With Ganesh" but I found "If the Buddha Dated" a most interesting spiritual perspective on building relationships.
