Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The spiritual path is a personal one; no one experiences exactly the same conditions as anyone else. On the other hand, challenges to the practitioner have remained fundamentally the same for thousands of years. The obstacles and antidotes described by the Buddha are not out of date. Thus a description of traveling the way - of coming to terms with specific obstacles, of applying or improvising antidotes - is always valuable. That Mugan Sozan Peter Schellin writes so clearly and sympathetically of his path and those along it, makes this book worth reading. That he also shows how a sense of humor bridges the small selfish life, with the big, compassionate, open way, makes the reading a delight.
