Book Reviews of The Wise Heart: A Guide to the Universal Teachings of Buddhist Psychology
Book Review: This is an amazing piece of work!
Summary: 5 Stars
This very well may be Jack Kornfield's best work to date. In language that is easy to understand, he not only explains Buddhism's major precepts, he gives real-life examples that illustrate how the principles have been used and the difference they made. Kornfield draws freely from his own experience, which adds a rich dimension to this important work. Each chapter is a gem, giving one not only pause for thought, but something to "work on" in daily life. This is an excellent resource for working through past issues that still need to be dealt with while building a healthy inner foundation from which one can live one's life.
These precepts are timeless, and can be used by anyone, regardless of one's personal religious beliefs. Highly recommended!!!
