The Buddha's Book of Daily Meditations: A Year of Wisdom, Compassion, and Happiness

Christopher Titmuss (Light on Enlightenment) culls together brief daily reflections in The Buddha's Book of Daily Meditations: A Year of Wisdom, Compassion, and Happiness. With just one quick quotation for each day of the year, the book at first glance appears superficial but these excerpts are deceptively simple. Readers who take the time to engage them fully will profit from their paradoxical wisdom. (Nov.)
