Very direct and clear!

This book is very thought provoking and meant for practitioners who need a reminder to check themselves, but is also helpful to those who want to orient themselves as they learn about Buddhism. If youre unsure about all the confusing traditions of Buddhism, you might find this book’s advice to practice for the right reasons rather then simply trying to find the perfect combo of mantra’s and repeated actions particularly refreshing.
