You have within
you unlimited
capacities for
love, for joy,
for communion
with life, and
for unshakable
freedom—and here
is how to awaken
them. In The
Wise Heart, one
of the leading
spiritual
teachers of our
time offers the
most accessible
and illuminating
guide to
Buddhism’s
transformational
psychology ever
published in the
West.
Trained as a
monk in
Thailand, Burma,
and India, Jack
Kornfield
experienced at
first hand the
life-changing
power of
Buddhist
teachings: the
emphasis on the
nobility and
sacredness of
the human
spirit, the
fine-grained
analysis of
emotion and
thought, the
precise
techniques for
healing,
training, and
transforming the
mind and heart.
In contrast to
the medical
orientation of
most Western
psychology and
psychiatry, here
is a vision of
radiant human
dignity, and a
practical path
for realizing it
in our own
lives.
The Wise Heart
is the fruit of
a life’s work
that includes
such classics as
A Path with
Heart and After
the Ecstasy, the
Laundry. Filled
with stories
from Kornfield’s
Buddhist
psychotherapy
practice and
portraits of
remarkable
teachers, it
also includes a
moving account
of his own
recovery from a
violence-filled
childhood. For
meditators and
mental health
professionals,
Buddhists and
non-Buddhists
alike, The Wise
Heart offers an
extraordinary
journey from the
roots of
consciousness to
the highest
expression of
human
possibility |
