Stumbling Toward Enlightenment
Aug 20 2008, 12:23 PM EDT
By Geri LarkinBecause I am not only on a healing journey, but also a spiritual journey, I have been seeking books as guides. Thanks to my great friend PinkDragonfly, I was introduced to this amazingly insightful book. A must have for anyone seeking thought provoking material, or simply a nice chuckle for Geri is a funny girl. Editorial Reviews-From Amazon.com From Library Journal A series of failed relationships and nervous exhaustion led Larkin, a former management consultant, to seek solace in Zen Buddhist meditation. This account of her spiritual quest is hilarious and serious, breezy, and earnestly truthful all at once. It is filled with reflections on Zen precepts and meditative practice, distilled in pragmatic observations that will resonate with American seekers wanting out of the fast lane. An enjoyable, thoughtful book for popular reading collections. Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. Book Description-From Amazon.com Instead of promising a straight and clear path to enlightenment, author and teacher Geri Larkin shows us that even stumbling along that path can lead to self-discovery and awakening, especially if we prize the journey and not the destination. With candor, affection, and earthy wisdom, Larkin shares her experiences as a beginning and continuing Buddhist. This spirituality classic shows any seeker that it's possible to stumble, smile, and stay Zen through it all. Do you find this valuable? |
