Book Reviews of Being Peace
Book Review: A Wonderful Intro to TNH's Basic Teachings
Summary: 4 Stars
TNH represents a confluence of the Zen and Theravada traditions, and is a wonderful representative of Buddhism around the globe. His writing, like C.S. Lewis's, is very accessible, yet very profound as well. C.S. Lewis was Christianity's best apologist, and while I would not go so far as to call TNH a Buddhist apologist, he is very good at simplifying abstract concepts for a modern day audience. This book covers such topics as interbeing, interdependence, the five aggregates (what we are made of), the Triple Gem (Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha), the meaning of suffering and the value of peace. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Buddhism, or the topic of peace and harmony in general.
