مقدمة قصيرة جدا ترمز لتبسيط شىء كبير , بس الكتاب دا كان ممكن يبقا أبسط وأسهل من كدا لشرح كل جوانب البوذية
بس استفدت منه بردو وعرفت أشياء كثيرة عن البوذية

The parts that were actually about Buddhism were interesting enough, but I would have liked to read more sutra passages rather than (1) dubious analogies between Buddhism and Christianity; (2) surface level speculation on synergy between Buddhist meditation and cognitive neuroscience; and (3) "isn't it interesting" credulous mention of reincarnation and past life regression. I know that reincarnation is part of Buddhist metaphysics but we can treat these things in a more NPOV way, I think.

Nothing more and nothing less than what was promised. A very short introduction to Buddhism. A few neat take aways, but definitely more of a textbook, which is to be expected.
