Moments of peace and stillness give us a glimpse of how extraordinary our lives could be. Yet this sense of meaning and wonder is so easy to lose sight of in the hectic pace of modern living. In The Buddhist Path to Simplicity, Christina Feldman, an internationally renowned Buddhist teacher, shows you how to find harmony and balance by applying ancient Buddhist Wisdom to the here and now. The path of conscious simplicity she suggests allows us to fully recover ourselves, by rediscovering our sense of meaning and wonder.
As a mother, a layperson and an internationally renowned teacher, Feldman knows the stresses and strains of modern life. In this book she shows how to harmonize and achieve balance and how to apply Buddhist wisdom to the here and now. She addresses subjects of compassion, speech, effort, intention, mindfulness and awakening. The path to peace, she suggests, is not necessarily complex or arduous. If we simply turn our attention to this moment, it will speak to us of wonder, mystery, harmony and peace. She demonstrates that there is no better moment in which to awaken and discover everything our heart longs for than this very moment.

Beautifully illustrated, Silence helps you to explore the hidden treasures within yourself. Christina Feldman looks at the spiritual journeys that have been undertaken through the ages, and invites you to take the first steps on your own journey into silence and toward enlightenment. Starting with an exploration of what noise and silence are, the book guides you as you take your first steps within silence. Christina lends a helping hand as you learn to become familiar and comfortable with silence. The book then moves on to the many rewards that nurturing silence can bring you, including inner strength, inner peace, serenity, and new perspectives. The final chapter explores the sacred experiences that lie at the heart of silence. It discusses how the countless descriptions of spiritual experience in different ages, cultures, and religions all express the same joy and sense of awakening. Christina demonstrates that such experiences are available to anyone who chooses to explore their own inner potential. A fascinating insight into the long tradition of compassion and stillness that runs through history, Silence is a guide to finding a lasting happiness that is not based on external possessions or achievements. It is the key to a new way of being.
