Woman Awake: Women Practicing Buddhism

I think this book is inspirational and beautifully written. In response to the previous review, I've studied Mahayana Buddhism for two years now and did not find that Christina Feldman contraditcted any of these teachings in her writing. While I agree she may make some generalized statements, at the same time, I think her writing is guided by some very positive and meaningful intentions: to empower, enlighten, and enliven women- all without having to put down or take anything away from the world of men. She attempts to show women a path that exists outside of the societal norms and gender roles so many feel compelled to comply with. I think it's a great book and definitely worth reading.

Rebeccasreads highly recommends WOMAN AWAKE as a book to be relished daily, in small doses, like the very best of delicacies - mindfully, thoughtfully, carefully, & yes, joyously -- first class sustenance for the mind & spirit.
