AWAKENING THE BUDDHA WITHIN - LAMA SURYA DAS







RATING: A

I have read this book before - several times; in fact, it is one of my favorite books. I first read it when borrowing it from Wollongong library back in 2005/6/7 when I first began to read books on Buddhism, & now that I have my own copy, I decided to read it again.

Ah! Lama Zopa Rinpoche was mentioned in this book! I had forgotten about that. Among other highlights, references to Dzogchen, pointing out awareness of body, emotions, thought, and deed, and the mindfulness meditation on page 351 were helpful.

I would recommend the book to anyone searching for a starting or continuing point for personal practice - or just as a good, informative read.
