Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. You don't need a robe. You don't need to convert. You just need someone to explain what's actually going on.Most books about Buddhism are written for people who already know a lot about it. Open one as a curious beginner and you're soon drowning in words you can't pronounce, feeling like you walked into a movie halfway through and everyone already knows the plot.No Robe Required is the fix. It's the friend who leans over and whispers what everything means, in plain English, with no prior knowledge assumed. When a strange word shows up, it stops and explains it. When something is genuinely confusing, it says so instead of pretending it's simple.Across nineteen short, friendly chapters, it walks you through the ideas at the heart of Buddhism, the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, karma and rebirth, meditation, the major traditions, and the symbols, figures, and holidays you'll actually run into, and it clears away the myths that trip up almost everyone.Inside, you'll find clear, honest answers to the questions newcomers actually ask: Is Buddhism a religion or a philosophy?Do I have to believe in reincarnation? (No.)Is there a soul? A God? An afterlife?What is meditation really for, and how do I start?What do all those statues, symbols, and traditions actually mean?You can read it as a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, an atheist, or someone who simply isn't sure, and keep your own beliefs fully intact. This isn't a book that asks you to sign up for anything. Take what helps. Leave the rest.Buddhism is deep enough to fill a lifetime. This book won't make you an expert. It will get you comfortable in the shallow end, so you finally understand what everyone around you already seems to know. And if a topic grabs you, it points you toward the deeper water.Everything you wish someone had told you when you started.Alton Alexander Weeks is a Napa Valley writer and longtime meditator who wrote the guide he needed when he first walked into a meditation group and got lost in words he couldn't pronounce. You don't need a robe. You don't need to convert. You just need someone to explain what's going on. No Robe Required is an introduction to Buddhism for total beginners. It answers the questions newcomers really ask. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
