LEARNING TO WALK - SANGHARAKSHITA

LEARNING TO WALK - SANGHARAKSHITA

RATING: B-

This book is an easy-read semi-biography that precedes a separate main autobiography. It tells the tale of a 20th century man growing up in a Christian world and discovering both life and Buddhism. Many of the places mentioned in Devonshire and Sussex I myself have an acquaintance with, as do I the situation of growing up in England and a Christian family.

I would recommend the book to English/European people who lean towards Buddhism yet are surrounded by another faith, those interested in Western Buddhists, and those who enjoy biographies.
