Description
There's much more to psychology than we know in the West. A vast range of new possibilities, teaches Jack Kornfield, are found in the teachings of the Buddha, who pointed us toward a vision of radiant human dignity shared by all. On The Heart of Buddhist Psychology, this celebrated author and psychologist shows listeners how specific Buddhist insights and practices can go beyond self-improvement efforts and lead us to unconditional freedom and joy as discovered by the Buddha. In the moving style of his bestseller A Path with Heart (Bantam, 1993), The Heart of Buddhist Psychology invites listeners to discover: A psychology of love and compassion; Buddhist personality types and the methods for transcending the illusion of self; and Behaviorism with heart - Buddhist cognitive training Interdependence and our individual responsibility totend the world.
