Product description...

ETHICS. COMPASSION. WISDOM

The commitment to ethical and moral precepts is the foundation for any spiritual practice. All major positive religious, philosophical, and psychological systems ascribe to the principles of goodness, compassion, and wisdom. Buddhism contends that our basic universal purpose is to not only stop our own suffering but also do what we can to help others. This is our moral obligation, based on compassion for all beings. To do this, we also need to develop the skillful means and wisdom to help when and wherever we can. This is the companion volume to the Six Pathways to Happiness, Volume One: Mindfulness and Psychology in Chinese Buddhism.

“Your book [Volume One] arrived. I began leafing through it and was blown away. Holy moly! I am going to read it carefully. What a fabulous book. I’m touched and honored that you thought to share it with me. There is such a wealth of material in it for mind, heart, and soul.- —Rick Hanson, author of Buddha’s Brain, and other works

Xiǎnkuān has written Six Pathway to Happiness for people who want a deeper understanding of Buddhism. I have greatly benefited from his sharing of information and perspectives from his lifetime of practice and learning from recognized masters. —Jordan Goldrich, Executive Coach, and author of Workplace Warrior
