This review is from: Step by Step: Meditations on Wisdom and Compassion (Paperback)
Ven Maha Ghosananda,supreme patriach of Cambodian buddhism,4 time Nobel Peace Prize nominee,living boddhisattva,has penned a book of short meditations.Taken with the introductions, the book runs less then 100 pages . The meditations themselves are simple, unadorned filled with wisdom and compassion{Maha Ghosananda says that both are needed for healthy living}prayers, pleas for tolerance and forgiveness,and most of all hope.Maha Ghosananda has lived through a hell that is quite literally unimaginable,yet maintains his compassion, love and hope.It is not a book of advice,nor offering easy snap answers to impossible questions. Maha Ghosananda seems to put one foot in front of the other, and go on with the work in front of him. Perhaps that, in and of itself, is the true miracle.

By Ji Hyang "Spirituality and Education" (Wellesley, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Step by Step: Meditations on Wisdom and Compassion (Paperback)
To read this book, in its simplicity, and receive the full benefit, sit with it. Let the phrases fall upon you like mist, and soak in. Maha Ghosananda radiates the loving kindness he writes of--
Through taking the teaching into the minefields and the battlefields, the prisons and cities he has transformed Khmer society, step by step. These are live words, filled with his presence, bringing peace to the reader.
