In <b>The Wise Heart</b>, one of the leading spiritual teachers of our time offers the most accessible and illuminating guide to Buddhism’s transformational psychology ever published in the West.<br><br>Trained as a monk in Thailand, Burma, and India, Jack Kornfield experienced at first hand the life-changing power of Buddhist teachings: the emphasis on the nobility and sacredness of the human spirit, the fine-grained analysis of emotion and thought, the precise techniques for healing, training, and transforming the mind and heart. In contrast to the medical orientation of most Western psychology and psychiatry, here is a vision of radiant human dignity, and a practical path for realizing it in our own lives.<br><br><b>The Wise Heart</b> is the fruit of a life’s work that includes such classics as <b>A Path with Heart </b>and <b>After the Ecstasy, the Laundry</b>. Filled with stories from Kornfield’s Buddhist psychotherapy practice and portraits of remarkable teachers, it also includes a moving account of his own recovery from a violence-filled childhood. For meditators and mental health professionals, Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike, <b>The Wise Heart</b> offers an extraordinary journey from the roots of consciousness to the highest expression of human possibility. 1922232 29 4 2008 The Wise Heart: A Guide to the Universal Teachings of Buddhist Psychology total:119|5:66|4:36|3:17|2:0|1:0| 119 525 329 30 3 0 false false Sun Jun 15 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Feb 27 05:45:32 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 06:05:21 -0800 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Sun Oct 19 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Dec 21 19:08:13 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 21 19:21:24 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Sun Jan 11 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun May 10 12:15:36 -0700 2009 Sun May 10 12:48:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Fri Dec 19 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 25 16:51:58 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 25 16:54:40 -0800 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Thu Jul 23 18:26:21 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 23 18:29:09 -0700 2009
