Quietly Comes the Buddha: Awakening Your Inner Buddha-Nature

This is a wonderful, poetic journey on the path of the Buddha. It contains the challenges and victories of the soul mastering the ten perfections. I am still thoroughly enjoying it as a great accompaniment to meditation, as it is so rich and vivid in its descriptions, and very easy to understand. There are so many levels to the poetry, that I easily get caught in all the things that are said within one line, or one stanza. The 25th anniversary edition has some interesting mathematical formulae to meditate on as well. The publisher also offers a wonderful cd on their own website (www.tsl.org), which has the author reading the book to music. It is wonderful to listen to when I am driving alone, or working at a computer for long periods. If you are actively seeking something to help you with meditation, or just a something peaceful to read every now and then, or even an epic poem, you won't be disappointed. I absolutely love this book.
