Roots of Buddhist Psychology

Jack Kornfield truly speaks and writes from the heart. He is both wise and self-effacing in his presentation of modern life and struggles. I highly recommend this book and tape set to anyone seeking the spiritual path. He illuminates Buddhist psychology with such clarity that anyone can understand his important message.

Painfully Dry

I'm still fairly new to Buddhism and wanted to learn more about Mahayana. Unfortunately, I chose the wrong book to learn about Mahayana. It's not a large book so I was able to get through it but I didn't find it to be helpful at all. If you're really interested in learning more about Buddhism, either read the Dalai Lama's books or go to [a website].

In 1959 Newsweek reported of a young Zen monk and scholar threatening to shake Japanese Buddhism out of its lethargy by publishing the "secret answers" to the koan. Though he never did take that step, Akizuki Ryomin did make good on his promise to devote himself to "breaking the formalism that constricts Zen and exposing the fake masters." Now, many years later, he brings his ideas on reform together into a proclamation of a "New Mahayana.".
