"A wealth of inspiration and practical tips for enjoying the Kingdom of God, the Pure Land of the Buddha, now." —Thich Nhat Hanh, bestselling author of Peace Is EveryStep

"For newcomers to Buddhism (and non-Buddhists interested in universal wisdom!) and‘old hands’ at practice . . . [Das] promises nothing less than a liberated life, freed from angst over the tyranny of time, though the practice of loving presence." —Sylvia Boorstein, author of Happiness Is An Inside Job

Internationally renowned meditation scholar Lama Surya Das delivers a penetrating and practical guide to discovering the power of living fully in the now. In the tradition of the Dalai Lama’s The Art of Happiness and Noah Levine’s Heart of the Revolution, Buddha Standard Time is a road map to discovering your own inner kingdom of awareness, patience, and love.

I Highly Recommend This Book

August 11, 2011

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Although I am retired and not into a frantic pace of life this book is geared for, it is a good reminder of awakening to the eternal now. Some of the things he recommends I am doing already and it is a good reminder to stay present. A challenge I have at times is to go from meditation into my daily life remaining in present, "Buddha Standard Time." I hope many people from all walks of life and cultures will order this excellent book. Though it didn't tell me anything I didn't know already it presented ways to stay in the eternal now which are awakening. Sometimes people of other religions than Buddhism would never pick up a book by a Buddhist teacher. Some people would do so. As one of the other reviewers writes it doesn't matter awhat one's religion is or even no religion. It is a timely book to help people slow down and stay present. It especially speaks to people who are working or perhaps raising children going from one place to another. However, all people can benefit from this timeless wisdom.

Not a new idea but a fresh take on it

June 28, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is the third of Lama Surya Das' books that I have read, and I like it as much as the others. Those are a presentation of Buddhism and its concepts to a Western audience, but this book is intended as a practical guide to keeping oneself calm and de-stressed in the complex and busy world we live in. To this end, Das offers specific yogic and meditation practices one can use to center oneself and re-focus on the present moment. The book is written in clear and accessible language, as is typical of his books, and is illustrated throughout with personal stories and anecdotes that illustrate his points and give a personal conversational tone to the text.

Good basic book on time in a Buddhist perspective. I found I would like books more advanced and teaching the great perfection. This did give a direction to that pursuit.
