Now available in both print and digital versions the second volume of Lotus Path.
Collection of short essays written to help encourage and deepen faith and practice of the Lotus Sutra to attain enlightenment.The practice of Buddhism is about changing our lives deep at the core. Buddhism calls on us to examine the causes of our suffering in brutal honesty. After making this self-assessment we then take the next step and make the necessary changes so we can free ourselves from the cycle of suffering in ignorance.The essays in the book are short; usually only several hundred words. It is possible to read them quite quickly, although that runs counter to our contemplative inner work.You will get the most value out of this book if you take your time and use the essays and the follow-up comments as tools. Use the book sparingly, sampling each essay as if it were a most delicious candy. This book will be of the most value to you if you actually try to use it as a tool for making changes in your life. Please take your time and enjoy these essays. I hope they encourage you to deepen your faith and practice of the Lotus Sutra.
