Klappentext

"Why do so many people still embrace the wisdom of Buddhism, even after twenty-five hundred years? The answer lies in the fact that, although the world may look different now, humans still grapple with the same fundamental challenges: overwhelming emotions, discontentment, and a longing for happiness. These are the very challenges that Buddhist philosophy can help us overcome, empowering us to transform into fearless, compassionate, and joyful individuals... The Daily Buddhist offers daily teachings of Buddhist wisdom and practices to help us navigate the challenges of everyday life. Drawing from many of the greatest Buddhist masters throughout history--renowned Indian philosophers like Nagarjuna and Santideva; Tibetan masters like Milarepa, Patrul Rinpoche, and Chèogyam Trungpa; and, of course, the Buddha himself--the authors, Buddhist scholars and practitioners, deliver daily doses of Buddhist insights tailored for 21st century living."--Back cover.
