Having spent 35 years studying interfaith teachings, Lozoff speaks with a humble authority, drawing upon the wisdom of Buddhism as effortlessly as he quotes Saint Paul or recounts stories from Judaism. As a seeker, he knows what it takes to sustain a spiritual practice, which is why half of his book is devoted to this crucial task. Although he offers practical advice, he never falters into a superficial "how to" voice. Rather, Lozoff uses a spiritually mature narrative to demonstrate how life can be a meaningful process, instead of "a climb to the top." Essays include a practice for facing fears, mantras for everyday life, and a prayer of humility.
Where the first half of the book addresses the "Inner Journey of Communion," the second emphasizes "The Outer Path Toward Community." Considering his life work, such as offering spiritual guidance to prisoners, it is not surprising that Lozoff gives equal time to living a life of service. Starting with understanding one's life calling, and moving through commitments to loved ones and the greater world, this section sings with intelligence, nudging us beyond practice and into a life worth living. --Gail Hudson

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Here is a universal, time-tested path for finding true meaning and joy in every aspect of our lives. Drawing on his thirty years of teaching and service, Bo Lozoff shows why compassion - not success, self-improvement, or self-esteem - is at the root of happiness. In twenty-six intimate, inspiring chapters - each accompanied by a specific practice - Lozoff covers themes such as developing honesty, learning humility, dealing with anger, and honouring relationships. He shows how practices such as a daily vow of kindness or a simple commitment of time with others can have a profound effect on ourselves and our world. Lozoff's stories and lessons can awaken everyone to a happier and more fulfilled life. Move from the stressful "fast lane" to the "vast lane" of a meaningful life with renowned spiritual teacher Bo Lozoff. "Filled with lessons, wisdom practices, and love. An invitation to a life well lived".—Jack Kornfield, author of "A Path with Heart" Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
