"I have to say that this spiritual leader is amazing. His book on anger is phenomenal. The best part of the book is the latter third or so in which he gives endless ideas for how a novice or intermediate meditator can meditate more fully and meaningfully. What a great man God placed on this earth."

    " Good intro to meditation, though a little abstract sometimes. The ideas that resonated with me most were ones I had previous exposure to via yoga or other channels, but in general some great perspective. "

    " This book is a a translation from a letter so some passages don't flow smoothly. It's a nice, short introduction to mindfulness with plenty of techniques and different ways of thinking about life and the universe. I found it quite useful. "

    " A good introduction to meditation and mindfullness. About half the book was written by Hanh, the rest are writings from other sources that may be on interest to those going full blown gonzo into Buddhist Zen practice but adds little for the beginner. "

    " This book, along with "Lovingkindness" by Sharon Salzberg, seem like bibles of sorts. They both give incredibly helpful advice about meeting life's challenges, meditation practice, and the core of being a kindner, more compassionate, loving person. "
