• The Origins of the Practice: What started Zen Buddhism, and how is it still being practiced today? What are the fundamental beliefs at the center of Zen, and how does a beginner start to practice it? Who was Buddha, and why did this man have such a huge impact on the world?
• The Foundations of Buddhism: Including the Four Noble Truths and the famous Eightfold path, a few different concepts exist in Buddhism. Regardless of where or how this belief system is practiced, these are the foundations that we can all learn from.
• The Middle way: The middle way is all about balance in life, and following a path of moderation. You will learn more about what that means, and how to pursue it, in this book.
