When the Buddha was asked to sum up his teachings in a single word he said «awareness»&#8212;experiencing the whole of reality, seeing what is, and being entirely in the present. In this way, the mind is made free. <BR><BR>In <i>Buddhism Plain and Simple</i>, Zen priest and longtime teacher Steve Hagen presents this heart of Buddhist teaching, pared down to its essence and explained in simple, everyday language. This best-selling beginner's guide to Buddhism text has served international readers at all levels of study and practice since it was originally published over a decade ago. More than 300,000 copies in various formats have sold to date, and now it's available in this brand new, high-quality paperback edition. <BR><BR>Praised by Robert M. Pirsig, author of <i>Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance</i>, as «the clearest and most precise exposition of Buddhism I have ever read. If you're looking for enlightenment rather than just scholarly knowledge, you'd better read this.» <i>Buddhism Plain and Simple</i> is the perfect «beginner's mind» introduction to the practice of being awake and in touch with the here and now.
