Description
A magnificent book about the joys and challenges of the spiritual journey, from Jack Kornfield, leading Buddhist teacher and author of A PATH WITH HEART Most accounts of spiritual enlightenment end at the moment of illumination. But what happens after that What is life like after the ecstasy How do we live our understanding with a full heart In this unique mix of practical and spiritual wisdom Jack Kornfield, author of the bestselling A PATH WITH HEART and one of the most respected Buddhist meditation teachers in the West, sets out to answer these crucial questions. Drawing on discussions with abbots, lamas and Western meditation masters, Kornfield describes with refreshing honesty their different experiences of the moment of enlightenment and what life lessons they - and we - can learn from these - as each of us seeks to fulfil the true path of compassion on earth.
