|  | | Product Description | | The Buddha said many times that just as the great oceans have but
one taste, so do all the true teachings of the dharma: the taste of
freedom. Jack Kornfield’s The Roots of Buddhist Psychology is an
invitation to drink deeply of these teachings—to taste the wisdom
that flows from the heart of Buddhism’s most useful ideas on the interior
life, and what brings awakening, freedom, and happiness. Among the
world’s great religions, Buddhism alone has developed a rich, intricate
psychology based not on metaphysics, but on the human predicament.
Through its strategies, you can find the way to true freedom.
Buddhism views the mind as a labyrinth of feelings, perceptions, and
emotional states. Unhappiness is rooted in unskillful responses to
our world: grasping when things are pleasant, aversion when they are
unpleasant, and delusion/confusion when they are neutral. Through
awareness training, Kornfield teaches, you can transform these
responses into real skills that are the path to true happiness. This is
the way to “inner stillness”—the deathless state that allows your wisdom
and compassion to flow together for a state of greater knowing.
Enlivened with many parables, worldly stories, and thoughts from
artists, philosophers, and writers, The Roots of Buddhist Psychology can
help you to discover for yourself that what you seek is already here.
