Buddhism Plain and Simple

Description

This work provides a clear, straightforward treatise on Buddhism in general and awareness in particular - the book is all about being "awake" and in touch with what is going on here and now. The author's observations and insights are plain, practical and down-to-earth and deal exclusively with the present, not with theory, speculation or belief in some far-off time or place. This book should be of interest to anyone wanting to discover (or rediscover) the essence of Buddhism in accessible language, free of all the trappings and religious ritual.
