Description

"The Buddhist Enneagram is a deeply personal exploration of Buddhist teachings on liberation from suffering and how the enneagram illuminates the way. This work is not an academic overview of interesting correlations between the systems. Rather, it shows how the enneagram gives powerful insight into your unique spiritual journey--and how you can support others in theirs."--Page 4 of cover.

My introduction to the Enneagram was through one of those quizzes "Which Enneagram Number Are You" you can find floating around online. So I took it and found the results interesting. Then I took another quiz and got completely different results, which was confusing. So when I saw a giveaway for this book, I entered and am glad I won a copy. Thank you GoodReads giveaways!

Enneagram is a philosophy to help us understand ourselves better and to enable us to travel from confusion to wisdom. It is more deep and complex than I was initially thinking. Susan Piver's passion for the Enneagram is felt on every page. Her writing is engaging and I liked her style of pairing what she was saying with a story to help with understanding. While I can't show more say I fully understand Enneagram, I do feel I have a much better foundation than I did from just a couple online quizzes. Pairing Enneagram with Buddhism was a interesting as it also helped me better understand some Buddhist principles at the same time. I suspect this book will be even better on future rereads should I decide to continue to deepen my knowledge of Enneagram. show less
