Starting line.

This book touched on much of the information I needed for basic understanding. The questions I had about Buddhism were answered. I’d say this is just enough to get you started on the path to following this philosophy. Oddly enough, I had already been following many of the laws or dharma. It’s a great addition to my current practice.

very informative

Great beginners guide. Runs through things a little fast at times but very simple to understand on second or third listen.

Nirvana

Short and to the point, this book explains Buddhism not as a religion but as a philosophy and a way of life. It is brief but complete; further exploration on the topic would be something the listen could delve into after listening to this introduction. Basic beliefs, ideals, life skills and practices are covered along with a timeline of events since the founding of Buddhism.
A great way of introducing you to this way of life.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this review voluntarily.

good for beginners to Buddhism

this was a very good book for those of us interested in philosophy and Buddhism

Informative

Found this book informative and helpful. Great start for my new positive adventure in life.

Outstanding,,, the best beginner’s book I have explored

i have been exploring buddhism and this is the best book so far. Took lots of notes.

Loved it!

Loved it, I have a better understanding of buddhism after listening to this narrator explain.

Great Listen if you’re going through a spiritual awakening

Love this book and the clarification it brought related to Buddhism. I’ve always been interested in the practice and this book only enhanced it.

LGBT Statements

The book explicitly says lgbqt lifestyle is against moral conduct. This is simply untrue. This is in stark contradiction to other teachings of the Buddha.

Good start

This is a great and simple introduction. The story was a little dry to follow at first but it got better.
