From the Inside Flap
"This devotional text, firmly grounded in Buddhism but reaching out to embrace other teachings, has the potential for awakening in the heart an ardent desire for enlightenment. It both comforts and challenges." -- Sonja Arntzen, scholar of Zen poetry and Japanese literature, author of "Ikkyu and the Crazy Cloud Anthology" and "The Kagero Diary"
Take a moment and commune with the heart of the Buddha. Discover peace, transformation and divine solutions to your everyday problems through the creativity of the Buddha-nature in your heart.
You can realize your Buddha-nature by cultivating its qualities known as the Ten Perfections. See them as ten habits of highly effective Buddhas to be: (1) giving of yourself (alms), (2) attaining enlightenment (precepts), (3) centering in ultimate reality (renunciation), (4) transcending the human mind (wisdom), (5) overcoming fear and unworthiness (courage), (6) refining the soul through communion (patience), (7) freeing yourself from the effects of errors (truth), (8) conquering self-destructive habits (resolution), (9) integrating the divine into your daily life (goodwill), and (10) sustaining intensity and equanimity as you fulfill your goals (indifference).

Conquering life through the Buddhic path,
By Going Home (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quietly Comes The Buddha: Awakening Your Inner Buddha-Nature (Paperback)
This is a simple little book explaining how anyone can attain the peace of the Buddha. It is easy to read and compelling in its format. So simple a tale for so simple a path. There are nuggets within each page to be read and reread. It's an invaluable tool for navigating in today's world of stress and responsibilities. Thank goodness for tools like this. We all need a good book to help us traverse along life's journey. The path of the Buddha is such a gentle, all encompassing path to help us find our way back to God.

A hodge-podge of spiritual cliches,

This review is from: Quietly Comes The Buddha: Awakening Your Inner Buddha-Nature (Paperback)
I read a few reviews of this book before purchasing it. I was interested in increasing my understanding of the Buddha-Nature, which is a profound Buddhist concept. For anyone who is looking for Buddhist teachings, this book is a big disappointment. Not only does it skim the surface of the concept of Buddha-Nature, it contains all kinds of pseudo-Christian and other theistic references, such as Mother Goddess, chakras, Yahweh, Jesus, Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. I would characterize it more as a New-Agey feel-good and basically confused presentation of the Ten Perfections of Buddhism.

Hidden agenda?,

This review is from: Quietly Comes The Buddha: Awakening Your Inner Buddha-Nature (Paperback)
Marilyn's review hit it on the head. Moreover, it should be emphasized that Elizabeth Clare Prophet is actually the charismatic leader of a religious cult located in Montana that secrets away weapons among other things. Their belief system is a hodge-podge of theistic speculation. I can only conclude that this book is a 'hook' to get people interested in E. C. Prophet and perhaps even recruited into her cult. Buyer beware!
