Teachings of the Buddha (Shambhala Pocket Classics)

Great book at a great price. Book_Outpost has consistently delivered as promised. I highly recommended this seller! Thanks!!

Reading this has helped my spiritual walk in ways i cannot begin to explain. Sadhu.

Definitely a must have for anybody who'd like to explore one of Jack Kornfield's classics. I ordered this book because this was a one of the books part of 2pac's reading library as it was one of his favorites. It arrived on my birthday and as described in the picture!!! 5 stars!!!

profoundly beautiful and incredibly accessible. A helpful guide for those on the path.

Nice book

If I kept one Buddhist book, it would be this one. It's small enough to carry around, yet unfailingly gives profound advice about practice and about the philosophy, the view of Buddhism. The practice of four establishments, instructive parables from the Buddha and wonderful passages like this: As a blind man feels when finding a pearl in a dustbin, so am I amazed by the miracle of awakening rising in my consciousness.

The teachings of the Buddha and of various Chinese, Japanese and Indian Bodhisattvas are offered in this wonderful book. Each teaching is to be savored, Kornfield instructs us, so that the words may sink in and that we may connect with the teaching. I am new to Buddhism and was curious to read what he actually said. This is a wonderful book in that regard, and it gives one a great deal to reflect on. I recommend it. (If you're new to Buddhism, like me, there are several wonderful YouTube videos of talks by Thich Nhat Hanh, the Dali Lama, Pema Chodron, Jack Kornfield, Susan Piver, and many other, that will be helpful in giving you a good grounding in Buddhism. There are also magazine publications such as Lion's Roar and Buddhadharma - all of which are wonderful resources for learning about Buddhism.) All of my exploration prior to purchasing this book is helping me to get even more out of each teaching, but the book also stands on its own. You don't have to be Buddhist to get a lot out of it, either.

Not bad. If you have read buddha before, then you will not find anything new in here probably. Great little pocket sized book.

Creo que esta elección fue muy acertada. Es un libro breve pero muy sustancial. Las enseñanzas del Buddha son eternas para cualquier época en la que se viva. Es una gran guía.

Life changing book..Buddha bless everyone

An excellent collection of sayings from different sources to be revisited and contemplated.

Small , which is great to carry with you or just have on your bedside table. It is definitely a paperback and paperback quality but very lightweight and convenient . Would recommend!

Excellent book. Excellent collection of teachings of enlightened Buddha...
