About this listen
Explore core Buddhist teachings, as well as practice through reflections and meditations, in this concise and inviting introduction.
Ideal for anyone who is Buddhism-curious, The Buddha in You offers an accessible introduction to the key teachings of Buddhism. But Buddhism is so much more than its teachings—it’s also a lived experience. Through simple reflections, practices, or meditations in every short chapter, The Buddha in You invites you to begin to try the teachings in your own life, whether you want to be Buddhist or not. These teachings can help cultivate more calm, joy, and gratitude even amid life’s challenges.
Authors Lama Lhanang Rinpoche, born and raised in Tibet and now teaching in the United States and internationally, and meditation teacher Mordy Levine have introduced countless people to Buddhism and meditation. This book answers the key questions people ask them, including:
• What really is karma?
• How do I meditate?
• Is reincarnation real?
• Do I have to believe everything the Buddha taught?
• What are the differences among the various schools of Buddhism?
• Do Buddhists have to be vegetarian?
• And many more
The Buddha in You invites you to explore both Buddhist teachings and your own inner landscape. As Lama Lhanang writes, “Enjoy this moment with wisdom, compassion, and kindness… We all have the chance to be a Buddha one day.”
Critic reviews
“The Buddha in You illuminates the profundity of Buddhism in the most accessible language. This is an excellent book for our age when many are seeking practical wisdom to answer life’s important questions.” —Anam Thubten, author of No Self, No Problem
“The Buddha in You is a straightforward, direct, and clear introduction to Buddhism, without any of the ‘ism’—the religiosity, esoteric conceptualization, or cultural baggage that often burdens what we hear. The authors know their subject matter, and they share it appropriately for our often chaotic or stressful circumstances. Anyone interested in exploring Buddhism, not as academic philosophy but as a way of life, is sure to benefit from this book.” —Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche, author of Our Pristine Mind

Story
The great Indian Buddhist master Nagarjuna wrote his celebrated poem Letter to a Friend as a gift of advice to a South Indian king, and it has since become a monument in the Indian shastra tradition. Despite its short length (only 123 verses), it covers the entire Mahayana path, combining a practical approach to daily conduct with a theoretical exposition of the different stages leading to enlightenment. It has thus been an ideal source for many of Tibet’s greatest scholars seeking a scriptural authority to enhance their own descriptions of the Buddhist path.
