About This Book
A Guide Through the Perils and Promises of Spiritual Life
In undertaking a spiritual life, we must make certain that our path is
connected with our heart, according to author and Buddhist monk Jack
Kornfield. Since 1974 (long before it gained popularity in the 1990s),
Kornfield has been teaching westerners how to integrate Eastern teaching
into their daily lives. Through generous storytelling and unmitigated
warmth, Kornfield offers this excellent guidebook on living with
attentiveness, meditation, and full-tilt compassion. Part of what makes
this book so accessible is Kornfield's use of everyday metaphors to
describe the elusive lessons of spiritual transformation. For example,
he opens with "the one seat" lesson taught to him by his esteemed
teacher. Literally it means sitting in the center of a room and not
being swayed or moved by all the people and dramas happening around you.
On a spiritual level it means sticking "with one practice and teacher
among all of the possibilities," writes Kornfield; "inwardly it means
having the determination to stick with that practice through whatever
difficulties and doubts arise until you have come to true clarity and
understanding." The same could be said for this "one book." Among all
the spiritual self-help books, this is a classic worth sticking with and
returning to--a highly approachable teacher that can only lead to
greater clarity and understanding. --Gail Hudson
