Narrative Concering Books The Buddha Is Still Teaching: Contemporary Buddhist Wisdom

When the Buddha set in motion the wheel of Dharma, he knew that the teaching he gave was inexhaustible—that every future generation would find its own skillful ways to convey it to the hearts and minds of those ready to hear. The Buddha Is Still Teaching is testimony to the fulfillment of that promise today. The selections it contains, from today’s most highly regarded contemporary Buddhist teachers, bring the Dharma eloquently to life for us in our own time, place, and culture. They demonstrate that two and a half millennia have done nothing to diminish the freshness of the Buddhist teachings, or their universal applicability to our lives.

Assessment Appertaining To Books The Buddha Is Still Teaching: Contemporary Buddhist Wisdom

Lee had warned me that this was just quotes and short notes and stories from various authors and books. Even still, I found it soothing and inspiring to read through.

The teachings in this book are profound. I wish I could say I had a complete understanding of them.

As another reviewer said, I marked this book as read, but will keep close for regular reconsideration. Short and dear entries from the great practitioners...a great help.

Jack Kornfield trained as a Buddhist monk in the monasteries of Thailand, India and Burma. He has taught meditation internationally since 1974 and is one of the key teachers to introduce Buddhist mindfulness practice to the West. He began his training after graduating from Dartmouth College in Asian Studies in 1967. Then he joined the Peace Corps and was assigned to the Public Health Service in

a nice collection of quotes from Jacks favorite authors.

i liked it quite a bit and it filled my heads with more quotes

At some point I will read this book and then will probably like it more. I listened to it thinking I would hear Jack'e voice but it is another reader and he sounded waaaay too dramatic to me. Couldn't stand that voice!
