Amazon.com Review If you dropped the Buddha into a modern metropolis, would he come off sounding like a 16th-century morality play or more like a drive-time disc jockey? Lama Surya Das doesn't spin platters for a living, but he does have a hip delivery that belies his years of sheltered training in Buddhist monasteries. In *Awakening the Buddha Within*, he borrows a time-tested bestseller format for a 2,500-year-old tradition that comes off as anything but ancient. With the "Five T's of Concentration," the question of "need or greed," and the story of the monk who bears his backside to prove a point, Surya Das invokes a path of wisdom that is as accessible and down-to-earth as a worn pair of loafers. It's not an easy path--it demands thought, effort, and discipline. But Surya Das is there for you, lighting the way to wisdom training, coaxing you into ethics training, and laying out step by step the path of meditation training. And if that's not enough to get you to live in the now, consider these words of the enlightened lama: "You must be present to win." *--Brian Bruya* Review "A warm, accessible, deep, brilliantly written exploration and adventure along the Buddhist path." --Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. "[T]his is a great achievement and I feel deeply grateful for it." --Thich Nhat Hanh, author of **Living Buddha, Living Christ** "This open-hearted offering of the Buddha's teachings ranges from fundamentals to magic. It is a wonderful gift." --Sharon Salzberg, author of **Loving Kindness** "Wise and wonderful, gentle and profound. . . . This is surely one of the finest spiritual manuals meant for a larger public and it succeeds brilliantly." --Ken Wilbur, author of **A Brief History of Everything** *From the Trade Paperback edition.*
