Worlds Within. 2011

Paperback. 206 pages.

Everyone loves a good story. Here are nine of them from the treasure-trove of the Buddhist tradition (and one cautionary tale from the West). Each story contains a nugget of freedom, something that we can learn to make our lives more fulfilling. The book has been used in courses at Buddhist centres as an accessible way into exploring some aspects of the Dharma. Personally I think it’s worth buying just for the tiger on the front cover!

A new edition of this book was, published by Worlds Within in July 2011. There is also a kindle edition available from amazon.
