It took few hours to finish the novel. As someone has said in the review, an audio version would be better i think. Overall, the writing is clear. | 4.5 / 5.0

| 2. |  | Buddha
from Hodder And Stoughton Ltd.
Customer Review:
I picked this book up on a whim and I'm so thankful that I did-everything happens for a reason. This book is not pushing an ethos. It tells the story of a prince who gives up riches to become a monk who then finds enlightenment and lives as a buddha. It is full of action, love, hate and drama. The... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Broadway
Price: $10.88
Customer Review:
If you are new to Buddhism, and want to know "what is this all about?", I can think of no finer book than this. It covers all the basic concepts, in a natural, and intuitive way. It thankfully avoids arguing over sectarian subtleties, and shows patience and care for the reader, assuming that this... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 4. |  | Radical Acceptance: Embracing Your Life With the Heart of a Buddha
from Bantam
Price: $10.88
Customer Review:
I really like Tara Brach's book but I say this with some serious reservations. As a healthy individual with genuinely "normal" anxieties and feelings of unworthiness, I can approach her meditations with interest and ease. I tried them, liked some, didn't like others which is fine. The serious... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 5. |  | Awakening the Buddha Within: Tibetan Wisdom for the Western World
from Doubleday
Price: $10.85
Customer Review:
Like many other reviewers here I thought this book was a bit dharma-lite. But for me that is not a bad thing - most books on Tibetan Buddhism are incredibly scholoarly, heavy and - in my opinion - much too serious. So I was pleased when this book came along. I recommended it to many people... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Wisdom Publications
Price: $12.89
Customer Review:
This is probably one of the most important books in my Theravada Buddhist book collection; I read from it almost everyday. Aside from presenting an accurate and easy to read translation of some of the most important suttas (discourses), it also presents the suttas in an order that provides structure... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

from Viking Adult
Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
In the early 1950s, Jack Kerouac (1922 -- 1969)became fascinated with Buddhism. In 1955, he wrote this short, highly personalized biography of the Buddha, "Wake Up". The biography was serialized in 1993 in the Buddhist magazine "Tricycle" but it has never before appeared in book form. The book was... more info | 5.0 / 5.0
