The reviewer's summation of the main ideas in the book is incorrect and if you know anything at all about Buddhism, you know it isn't about dogma.

That ...             Brilliant Moon: The Autobiography of Dilgo Khyentse Dilgo Khyentse Shambhala, 2008 Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910?1991) was one of the most respected and influential Tibetan Buddhist teachers of our age.

I have felt writing as a spiritual practice for a long time, even though I had no name for it particularly. I don't know much about Zen but the insights helped me with my own practices. The book also helped me free the part of me that wants to write self-indulgently and for fun instead of always pursuing the next big project. Write for joy and for yourself, as well as for ...             Coloring Mandalas 28 reviews Susanne F. Fincher Shambhala, 2004 Quality Product in Many Ways! Recovering from back surgery, I knew my artistic mind needed a more relaxing, yet retain a stimulating art media to keep my interest. This book does it!

This is one of my favorite books by Pema Chodron. It not only does a very good job of describing the essence of Buddhism, but it goes beyond that in making Tibetan Buddhism more understandable and relevant to a Western audience without deveating from the tradition. In short, it contains the heart of the teachings of the Vajrayana. A nice complimentary book if you are interested in going deeper ...             When the Past Is Present: Healing the Emotional Wounds that Sabotage our Relationships4 reviews David Richo Shambhala, 2008 One of the best books I have ever read "When the Past Is Present" is one of the best books I have ever read.

It's very easy to read and the format is bright and captivating (almost like a comic book.)             The Unfolding Now: Realizing Your True Nature through the Practice of Presence8 reviews A. H. Almaas Shambhala, 2008 Extraordinary "how to" of practicing Presence We spend so much of our lives trying to get somewhere else. This book revealed to me how this habit of striving interferes in my inner experience of what is happening now. Learning to truly experience what is happening now does not mean being passive.

It means that if I am sad, I experience that sadness, rather than rushing to cover it up with ...             Don't Bite the Hook: Finding Freedom from Anger, Resentment, and Other Destructive Emotions11 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2007 Philosophy delivered in common sense style Pema Chodron explains the Buddhist philosophy in this as well as her many other CDs in a clear, relevant manner with just the right touch of humor relating to the human condition.
