Three ancient lineages. One shared essence of freedom. A master guide to the emerging path of Western Buddhism. Goldstein traces the fertile encounter of Theravada, Zen, and Tibetan lineages across decades of practice. Drawing on his training under Burmese and Tibetan masters, he addresses the thorny dilemmas that arise when ancient traditions meet in the West. His study examines whether liberation transcends conscious experience or rests in the nature of awareness itself. The volume gathers mindfulness, compassion, and nonclinging into a unified path of practice. One of America's most respected Buddhist teachers distills a lifetime of practice and teaching in this groundbreaking exploration of the new Buddhist tradition taking root on American soil. Buddhist Practice: Explores how meditation in the West moves beyond Asian cultural overlays to ask the pragmatic question of what works to free the mind from suffering. Comparative Buddhism: Examines where Burmese Satipatthana, Zen direct pointing, and Tibetan Dzogchen diverge on the nature of consciousness and where their core methods converge. Four Foundations of Mindfulness: Outlines the classical discipline of observing body, feeling, mind, and mental phenomena, including Mahasi Sayadaw's method of noting the rise and fall of the abdomen. The Bodhisattva Path: Reconciles the early monastic ideal of personal liberation with the Mahayana commitment to awaken for the welfare of all living beings.…
