Think Like the Buddha: 108 Days of Mindfulness
Victor M. Parachin (Victor M. Parachin)
Mindfulness simply means being alert, aware, attentive moment by moment. The simplest definition of mindfulness is mental scrutiny. When we have that mind skill, the result of our living is positive, as the Buddha noted: All wholesome words, deeds and thoughts have mindfulness as their root. However, if the mind is not trained, the result of our living will show up much the opposite, marked by forgetfulness and neglect.
The Buddha, who was the planet’s most prominent practitioner of mindfulness, taught this technique to others. THINK LIKE THE BUDDHA offers reflections for 108 days of mindfulness. The stories and lessons are brought together to provide insight, information, instruction and inspiration for the reader to cultivate this practice daily. The book is very user friendly - immediately applicable regardless of any background in Buddhism, and is thus useful to complete beginners.
Mindfulness is more than stress release, or mental focus. It cannot be separated it from the ethical framework of Buddhism. THINK LIKE THE BUDDHA retains this ethical component of Buddhism from which mindfulness is derived. The stories and teachings in this book cover a wide variety of specific topics, from divorce, to illness, to losing a job, to determining a course of action. All these meditations are infused with the message of compassion that all today are hungering for.
