Powerful Teachings

Anyone interested in understanding more about the Middle Way and what I would refer to as its technicalities through the teachings of the Buddha should definitely read this book, in my opinion. The warning is in the title: I would not suggest reading this book as a primer for understanding Buddhism and its components.

Best Buddhist book.

I love this book. It delves into a ton of detail without being overpowering. It likewise has a ton of extraordinary data that you simply need to peruse and over once more. However much I disdain increasing a book, I featured a lot of entries for myself to have the option to reference as frequently as the need might arise. On the off chance that you're simply getting into Buddhism or regardless of whether you're as of now excited about it, this is an astounding peruse.

I liked this book a lot.

Although it was wonderfully written and poetic, I only awarded it four instead of five stars because of how poetic it was. I greatly prefer a direct, analytical, and explanatory approach to a poetic one. Perhaps this is because I am a Theravadin and the author is Zen.

Buddhism primer

This is a rich book that will kick you off on Buddhism and care. It is all-around organized without being unbending or course book-like and peruses quite well. Perusing the sections you will learn new things that will widen your point of view on life.
