Like the songlines that bring sacred aboriginal paths to life, in A Heart Full of Peace evocative lines of poetry weave through the Buddha's teachings on loving-kindness. Grounded in the basic trainings of body, speech and mind, this mini-walkabout is illuminated by the kind of humour and personal insights that even seasoned travellers will find inspiring, while pithy practice guidelines keep the journey on track. Following in the footsteps of Buddhist practitioners for the last 2500 years, author Joseph Goldstein now leads Forest Refuge programs, for longer periods of "the practice of awakening". A Heart Full of Peace distills the long and short of what he's learned and taught into breezy, entertaining, lessons that anyone can put into benefit from, and share. Peace in the world begins with us. This wonderfully appealing offering from one of the most trusted elders of Buddhism in the West is a warm and engaging exploration of the ways we can cultivate and manifest peace as wise and skillful action in the world.
