Jack Kornfield: A Path With Heart [1995] paperback

Written by a teacher, psychologist and meditation master of international renown, this warm, inspiring, expert but instantly accessible book covers a wide range of essential issues, including many rarely addressed in spiritual books. From dealing with compassion addiction and psychological and emotional healing, to dealing with problems involving relationships and sexuality to the creation of zen-like simplicity and balance in all facets of life, it speaks to the concerns of many modern spiritual seekers, both those beginning on the path and those with years of experience. A PATH WITH HEART is filled with practical techniques, guided meditations, stories, koans and other gems of wisdom and illustrated by the profound - and sometimes humourous - experiences of the author, his friends and fellow seekers. The reader is guided through the obstacles and trials of spiritual and contempoorary life to attain a clarity of perception and a sense of the sacred in everyday experiences. This is a wise and gentle guidebook for a deeper, more satisfying odyssey into the world.
