Eight Mindful Steps to Happiness: Walking the Path of the Buddha by Bhante Henepola Gunarantana
5.0
A marvellous exposition of the four noble truths and the noble eightfold path - in simple language, and in a way that is understandable to a lay person, free of the self-importance and high handedness of spiritual literature.
The Buddha's path has been given for us to discover on our own, and follow for a happier life, and maybe even eventual enlightenment. You might agree or not agree, but the path provides you a framework of ethical living and self-development at par with the Stoics, the Epicureans and other famous philosophical schools of thought.
Definitely recommended for everyone seriously interested in practising Buddhism.
