Description

While the notion that ?happiness can found within oneself" has recently become popular, Buddhism has taught for thousands of years that every person is a Buddha, or enlightened being, and has the potential for true and lasting happiness. Through real-life examples, the authors explain how adopting this outlook has positive effects on one's health, relationships, and career, and gives new insights into world environmental concerns, peace issues, and other major social problems.

Started reading the book and just couldn't get through it. It didn't keep my attention and it didn't seem to provide any nuggets of insight that would inspire me. I have definitely read better books on the subject
