My Reminders...Reflections of a Fledgling Buddhist - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

My Reminders begins with four short reflections on the author's introduction to Buddhism and her unlikely process for deepening her understanding of The Four Noble Truths and basic Buddhist tenets of generosity, spiritual friendship, and the nonself. The act of collecting and sifting through over 200 spiritual quotations became a contemplative practice. Without claiming to be an expert, the author shares insights that have led to meaningful connections between her life experiences and the inspirational quotations drawn from the Buddha's teachings and other spiritual leaders. The introductory reflections are followed by a random list of quotations intended to support readers' efforts to study Buddhism or simply to find solace in their wisdom. The collection concludes with a final reflection on the Buddhist concept of equanimity.
