5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, dharmic and profound book., 1 April 1999
By A Customer
Sharon Salzberg has written a beautiful and profound book about practicing the dharma, living the dharma, and spreading the dharma. She relates wonderful stories of her own experiences, many involving the great spiritual teachers of our day. I was continuously inspired by her writing. I highly recommend this book for anyone who'd like to have an inspiring spiritual book around the house. The best part of the book is that it is written in 1-2 page chapters, each one an immediate hit of pure dharma. So, I can just flip the book open, have a quick read, and come away very happy. A great book, indeed!

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful, sincere look at a life of spirituality., 9 Nov 1998
By A Customer
A HEART AS WIDE AS THE WORLD is filled with amusing, heartfelt, spiritual stories that make us feel good, teach us, and inform our meditative lives. I look at it again and again for the short bursts of heart-centered stories that it contains. They help me get through a tough day for sure. I recommend this book whole-heartedly!

5.0 out of 5 stars a personal reference or periodic motivation, 26 Jul 1999
By A Customer
The previous reviews summarize my general feelings about this fine work. I would like to add that I've found the book very useful as a reference. As I read the book over and over I make notes and keep a personal index which allows me to browse the book easily when dealing with a particular issue in my practice. Rereading a pertinent section provides insight and gives me another resource.
