Opis

Looking 4 Truths is a guide and companion for you on your search for truth. It is a series of essays by Zen Master Bub-In (Peter Taylor), organized around Buddhism's Four Noble Truths. It will help you look into your own experiences of suffering and joy in order to facilitate change in your life. The first section contains writings about the ways that we suffer. The second section discusses causes for our suffering. The third section considers the possibility of a cure for suffering. The fourth section talks about meditation and mindfulness practices that represent the way to that cure. The Zen practice of mindfulness does not rely on an in-depth understanding of Buddhist philosophy, it relies on basic awareness of your everyday experience. If you have not been exposed to many Buddhist ideas, this book will provide fresh perspectives, and possibly some insights into your life. If you are a seasoned Buddhist practitioner or scholar, the prose will amuse you and inspire a renewed dedication to practice. This book cannot prove or disprove the truth for you. That, you have to do for yourself. Look into it.
