As the practice of mindfulness permeates mainstream western culture, more and more people are engaging in a traditional form of Buddhist meditation. However, many of these people have little interest in the religious aspects of Buddhism, and the practice occurs within secular contexts such as hospitals, schools, and the workplace. Is it possible to recover from the Buddhist teachings a vision of human flourishing that is secular rather than religious without compromising the integrity of the tradition?

The question "What do I want to do with my life?" is more difficult to answer for today's 20-somethings than it was for their parents - not only do today's jobs look different, but career paths are altogether less of a sure thing. It's in this modern context that Lodro Rinzler provides Generation Y with wisdom for approaching the whole issue of livelihood - not only how to find work, but how to bring compassion and meaning into the job once you’ve got it. It’s wisdom from the Buddhist tradition that works for anyone.

The question-and-answer format makes this introduction to Zen especially easy to understand - and also to use as a reference, as you can easily look up just the question you had in mind. The esteemed Zen teacher Norman Fischer and his old friend and teaching colleague Susan Moon (both of them in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki, author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind) give this collaborative effort a playful tone: Susan asks a question on our behalf, Norman answers it, and then Sue challenges him.

Best book ever!
There is written a perfect beginners guide book for explaining the term stoicism in detail. I became seriously amazed while learn about the definition of stoicism with its tips and tricks and strategies to mastering a stoic way of life, the author has really done appreciative work for introducing such a strong topic.

Looking forward for more books from this author.
There are many nuggets of wisdom in it that give me the opportunity to dwell upon them. For example, “If a seed that never becomes a tree can be said to have failed in its nature, so too can a person who never develops morally be said to have failed.” The book is littered with great quotes that will appeal to any personalities. One of my favorite is, “For the Stoics, Author did a great job, Looking forward for more books from this author.

Helps you live a happier life.
Being the owner of 2 companies, one being one of the largest high-end limousine companies in the country. I have heard many self help speakers and read many books. I had also heard a lot about Stoicism which from day one impacted me more than anything else in the past. Now coming across this book was a pleasure and a blessing in itself. Scott was able to concise centuries of such wonderful philosophies in one book where he makes it easy to see it through his eyes and understand the essence of what being a stoic is all about. Most importantly, how we can learn from it and apply it in our everyday life.

This is a very clearly written book, intended to introduce us to Stoicism as a philosophy of life.Like many self-help books, A Guide to the Good Life repeats itself a lot, but I'd say this has quite a bit less fluff than much of the genre.
