Rose Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 I started reading Mastering the core teachings of the Buddha book and I am not sure I like it Too much text, and it feels a bit dark and heavy - which is not something I believe spirituality needs to be. Has anyone else read it? What do you think about it? Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about reading some poetry? Much more spiritual imo Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resonate with this. At times, it feels like the author's purpose is other than plainly communicating. Also, way too much intellect. This is one of those books that could be cut in half (or so) without taking anything worthwhile away. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
