What is the meaning of life? How can we be truly happy? Buddhism answers these questions through the Dharma, which is a traditional term meaning both 'the truth' and 'the path', and is the subject of this book, which offers a starter-kit of Buddhist teachings and practices. Review: What is the Dharma ? - Took me to page 90 to get into it, but worth the persserverence as the book then just started to flow with ease. though now in his later years what a great thing it must have been to listen to Sangharakshita h teachings back in the 70s and 80s Review: misconceptions - I tried to practice meditation and find some info on internet, but so far everything seemed either not working for me or vague. This book let me get rid of misconceptions about meditation, and now finally I feel that I can go futher beyond my limits.
