Synopsis

One of America's foremost Buddhist teachers shares a "wise and mature vision of Buddhism [that is] destined to be a classic"—preface by the Dalai Lama (Jack Kornfield). Buddhism has evolved in various ways across time and geography. Now, as a genuine Western Buddhism takes root on American soil, Buddhist teacher Joseph Goldstein explores its unique traditions as well as its essential adherence to the universal principles of mindfulness, loving-kindness, and nonattachment. In One Dharma, Goldstein distills a lifetime of practice and teaching, including his years at the renowned Insight Meditation Society, to present a groundbreaking, contemporary vision of Buddhism.
