Synopsis
Pondering difficult questions leads to powerful insights. That s the premise of this intriguing new book by Buddhist teacher Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel. The difficult questions are ones like: What causes human suffering? Where is the self? How do we get beyond us-and-them ways of thinking? By inviting us to be curious about our personal experience and to trust our insights, she guides us on a spiritually enriching journey of contemplation that could last a lifetime. Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel speaks with the authority of her training in traditional Tibetan Buddhism, but her language is friendly and inviting, and her approach is completely accessible. She teaches all around North America and Europe. This book has already sold well in hardback.

Paperback. Condition: Good. "A bold, playful, and invigorating" look at how asking challenging questions-without expectations-can lead Buddhist practitioners to powerful spiritual insights(Pema Ch dr n) How do we find a resting place in a world that is complex and always changing? How do we practice spirituality beyond the limits of blind acceptance and doubt? Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel proposes that when we ask challenging questions like these, we access our deepest intelligence and most powerful insights. "When we ask a question," Mattis-Namgyel suggests, "our mind is engaged yet open. The process of inquiry protects us from our tendency to reach static conclusions. Instead, we can respond to uncertainty and change with inquisitiveness and a sense of wonder." By telling the story of the Buddha's awakening, Mattis-Namgyel shows us that by contemplating hard questions-and by not simply rejecting seeming contradictions in his experience-the Buddha became enlightened. Her book guides us on a provocative, playful, and spiritually enriching journey of contemplation that could last a lifetime. Seller Inventory # 00107411069
