Buddhism for Beginners Thubten Chodron Books Reviews
- EXTREMELY INFORMATIVE!!! Perfect for the beginners. I love this book so much. Common Sense and works in our daily lives, I don't see how EVERYONE should not become Dharma. I am proud to be reading this book, if someone asks me at the gym what am I reading I proudly show them. Many want to know if this is how I am so calm being a military wife (husband always gone), 4 kids (little ones) and always so positive. I tell them, it does help ) The calm state and meditation does help. I strive to always stay positive throughout my days and not complain about LIFE. I am a changed woman because of this book and I would read it OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
- This book is a very helpful introduction to Buddhism. The author made sure to explain things clearly and continue to define words throughout the entire book, just to help the reader stay on track. It provided a great overview of traditional Buddhist viewpoints and beliefs, and answered practically every initial question I had. It is easy to read and easy to understand, and helped clarify many points that often cause confusion. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about Buddhism.
- I was looking for a good beginners book on Buddhism. I got really over-whelmed at all of the choices. But this one by Thubten Chodron is a great choice for me. It is a very easy read and is plain and to the point language. I was able to get a good insite on the practice of Buddhism. I will certainly look for more writting by Thubten. I would recommend this book and the seller.
- This is a Westerner-friendly discussion of Buddhist beliefs and practices presented in a question-and-answer format. The 21 chapters cover Buddhist beliefs and scriptures, rituals, the role of women, modern social issues like abortion, and practical tips for raising children and dealing with non-Buddhist relatives. The author attempts to fairly represent a variety of Buddhist traditions in a positive light. As a non-Buddhist I found it to be occasionally jargon-y but probably about as clear and straightforward as a "believer" can present their own religion. I think this book would be especially helpful for people who have already decided to embrace Buddhism or who grew up in Buddhist homes but don't really understand the religion they wish to practice. The price is a few dollars cheaper than the print edition both on and in local bookstores, which is always nice to see!
- First book I can clearly understand from a someone who is a beginner. I've gotten books that I could not fully understand. This book is excellent
- This book is exactly what I was hoping for! It's written in understandable vocabulary, and is not full of 20-letter words! It's perfect for the beginner (my friend is one), and will not cause him to get discouraged before he gets through the first chapter! Oh, and I received it way before the estimated delivery date, which I was thrilled about! Thank you, and Namaste!
- Excellent, provides accurate, simple explanations of Buddhism and practices for the True Seeker.
- I've always been interested with Buddha's teaching so to have a book written by another Buddhist that clears up just about any and all confusion I may have had in the best is great ) for me personally one of the most useful chapters is the one on meditation.
