This intriguing book challenges common conceptions and misconceptions about traveling the Buddhist path to enlightenment.
The author asks the questions that some dare not:
Peter Fenner approaches these questions by first providing clear and illuminating summaries of the orthodox and unorthodox ways of the many different Buddhist traditions. He traces his own experiences with such practices as mindfulness meditation, Vipassana, the transformational tools of Tantra, and the natural meditations of the Dzogchen tradition. He contrasts the traditional approach of change-through-practice with the non-traditional, Western need for immediacy.
Fenner shows us how the paradoxes that emerge on the spiritual path can be used to deconstruct our fixations about "getting it" or "losing it": if I give up everything, will I gain fulfillment? Ultimately, he provides answers that are as proactive as his questions.
