Practical Spiritual Teachings Of A Travelling Buddhist Monk
Foreword by His Holiness The Dalai Lama.
This wise, compelling and compassionate book records the teachings and life experiences of an extraordinary man. A Buddhist monk by training, Bhante Wimala has travelled the world, crossing religious, racial and cultural boundaries to bring together the spiritual wisdom common to all traditions. In 'Lessons Of The Lotus' he offers a rich harvest of insight into the practical matters of our daily life.
The lotus, Bhante Wimala points out, though rising from mud and murky water, blossoms into a beautiful flower. Through his inspirational writing, Wimala encourages us to follow the example of the lotus by growing through our pain, delusions and fear to discover the pure and brilliant lotus within ourselves. Opening each chapter with thought-provoking questions and a brief meditation, Wimala invites you to quiet your mind and open your heart to a new way of looking at yourself and the world around you that will change your life forever.
