Book Reviews of The Tao of Sobriety: Helping You to Recover from Alcohol and Drug Addiction
Book Review: Stretching the Tao.
Summary: 3 Stars
It must be remembered that this book is written by 2 psychologists.
Buddism and its philosophy, teaching and meditations are very conducive to a pshychological bent.
But I felt they stretched the ideals of Buddism and innocence to better coincide with the Christian 12 steps. The idea to give yourself totally up to God, and relieve the mind and soul of guilt and shame is quite different than Buddism.
Buddism allows choice and therefore, though born innocent, you are responsible for your karma.
It is a useful book to change negative ways of thought.
But be mindful of where similarities exist and where they are stretched.
