The Daily Buddhist: 366 Days of Wisdom for Happiness, Inner Freedom, and Mindful Living ― A Self-Help Guide to Buddhist Philosophy and Meditation
About this product
366 daily doses of profound and practical Buddhist teachings for true transformation. Why do so many people still embrace the wisdom of Buddhism, even after twenty-five hundred years? The answer lies in the fact that, although the world may look different now, humans still grapple with the same fundamental challenges: overwhelming emotions, discontentment, and a longing for happiness. These are the very challenges that Buddhist philosophy can help us overcome, empowering us to transform into fearless, compassionate, and joyful individuals. Buddhism provides a framework we can use to lead a great life—one in which we are kinder, have greater resilience, are more adaptable to change, and experience greater lightness and joy. The Daily Buddhist offers daily teachings of Buddhist wisdom and practices to help us navigate the challenges of everyday life. Drawing from many of the greatest Buddhist masters throughout history—renowned Indian philosophers like Nagarjuna and Santideva; Tibetan masters like Milarepa, Patrul Rinpoche, and Chögyam Trungpa; and, of course, the Buddha himself—the authors, Buddhist scholars and practitioners, deliver daily doses of Buddhist insights tailored for 21 st century living. Each day of the year, you’ll receive an insightful quote from a Buddhist master paired with a thought-provoking reflection that’s accessible, practical, and modern. Over the course of the year, you’ll learn:How mindfulness can help you find inner peace
How to make friends with yourself through meditation
How to overcome difficult emotions like anger, jealousy, and anxiety
Why cultivating compassion leads to happiness
Why you are not your thoughts
How to tame your inner critic
How to discover happiness that actually lasts
This profound yet practical approach to Buddhist philosophy provides tools for true transformation. By the end of the year, you'll see the world and your mind in a new light, propelling you along the path to lasting happiness, self-mastery, and inner freedom. Read more
