The Future of Buddhism

In this little book, Rinpoche considers some of the important issues regarding Buddhism in the western world, discussing questions like how it fits in and how it may change. He also explores the question of how the ancient wisdom may be made more accessible today in order to harness its full power, and how practitioners can be trained and supported.Other topics include the role of the mind in health and healing, training the mind for meditation and practical advice on following the spiritual path in the stressful modern world. His valuable advice provides a way of avoiding misunderstandings and delusions (how to recognize doubt and suspicion for what they are) and how to find confidence and strength every day.The chapter on the spirit of Tibetan medicine is likewise interesting and enlightening. This might be a little book but it deals with big issues of balance and spiritually that will be of great value to everyone on the spiritual path, not only Buddhists. I highly recommend it.
