The Big Questions: A Buddhist Response to Life's Most Challenging Mysteries

By How Expert Press

No Customer Reviews

The best-selling author of Awakening the Buddha Within addresses life's most provocative and tantalizing questions simply, directly, and powerfully. Every life is a journey through the unknown. Along the way, however, we tend to encounter the same perplexing questions again and again. Some are cosmic enigmas that have always tested the human mind: What is my purpose in life? What happens after I die? Others are puzzles presented by daily life in modern society: What, if anything, justifies assisted suicide? What is my personal responsibility to the homeless? According to Lama Surya Das, one of the foremost Western Buddhist scholars and teachers, the more we seek to resolve these mysteries, the more fully we live. Along with his own personal beliefs, the author presents a variety of thoughtful points of view representing different schools of Buddhism, other religions, spirituality in general, and pragmatism. The Big Questions challenges readers in the most stimulating and thoughtful way to formulate individual, authentic responses to life's big questions.

Desperate for Truth

By Thriftbooks.com User, February 17, 2009

If you are at a point in your christian walk where you have said enough is enough, I highly recommend this book to you. This book will open your eyes to a greater awareness of who God is. Be prepared and open to allow Him to reconstruct your thoughts and to tear down tradition. Your life will never be the same.
