Buddhism Plain and Simple The Practice of Being Aare, Right No, Every Day [Hardcover]

Buddhism Plain and Simpleoffers a lucid, straightforward treatise on Buddhism in general and on awareness in particular.

When Buddha was asked to sum up his teaching in a single world, he said, Awareness. The Buddha taught how to see directly into the nature of experience. His observations and insights are comprehensible, practical, and down-to-earth, and they deal exclusively with the present.
