E-book Title: Dharma Diary Reflections On A Path
Author: David Lourie
Book Description: Dharma Diary Reflections On A Path
This e-Book is a very personal spiritual offering from the creator of "Dharma The Cat - Philosophy With Fur." You can download a free preview of first the 20 pages < right click on link, then "save target as."
It's an artistic convergence of first-hand stories, succinct articles, humorous anecdotes, visually stunning photo-poems and, of course, some of the most popular of the "Dharma The Cat" cartoons, which have been published in 28 countries, and translated into 18 languages.
This e-Book takes a really amusing and down-to-earth approach to presenting some deeply thought-provoking content, and it makes spiritual practices easy to understand and use in a practical, every day way.
"Dharma Diary" is an absolutely unique and enjoyable take on what can often be a dry and challenging subject. The writer makes it all come alive with humor and personal accounts and beautiful images.
It makes pleasurable reading for anyone with even a vague interest in philosophical or spiritual matters. And for those already on a path, it provides a different way of appreciating the Buddha's teachings - not to mention giving the reader a good many inner chuckles.
For example, one of the author's short stories is a funny and ironic tale of getting caught up in desire. It's from his childhood -- about the first time life taught him the Second Noble Truth, and to be careful what he wishes for, because he might get it!
There are also incisive little anecdotes, such as living in the moment, thoughts on death, starting afresh, what you draw out in other people, what 'coolness' really is, and ego issue (how to use it to lose it).
There are also succinct down-to-earth articles on the Buddha's core teachings, including karma, guidelines for living (including the issue of vegetarianism), how to meditate simply etc. There is even a short but penetrating discourse on the most difficult and elusive of all the Buddha's teachings - the concept of Emptiness.
Although this book is refreshingly the opposite of another intellectual tome on the Buddha's teachings, the writing has all been authenticated by Graeme Lyall, eminent Australian Theravada Buddhist scholar and founder of the Buddhist Council of NSW.
