Publisher Description: <b>This easy-to-understand introduction to Buddhism is "written for people wanting to understand basic Buddhist principles and how to integrate them into their lives" (H.H. the Dalai Lama)</b> <p/> This user's guide to Buddhist basics takes the most commonly asked questions--beginning with "What is the essence of the Buddha's teachings?"--and provides simple answers in plain English. Thubten Chodron's responses to the questions that always seem to arise among people approaching Buddhism make this an exceptionally complete and accessible introduction--as well as a manual for living a more peaceful, mindful, and satisfying Life. <p/> <i>Buddhism for Beginners</i> is an ideal first book on the subject for anyone, but it's also a wonderful resource for seasoned students, since the question-and-answer format makes it easy to find just the topic you're looking for, such as: <p/> - What is the goal of the Buddhist path? <br> - What is karma? <br> - If all phenomena are empty, does that mean nothing exists? <br> - How can we deal with fear? <br> - How do I establish a regular meditation practice? <br> - What are the qualities I should look for in a teacher? <br> - What is Buddha-nature? <br> - Why can't we remember our past lives?
