Four cassettes, 6 hrs.performance by the authorIn Awakening the Buddha Within, Surya Das explained the foundations of Buddhism and illuminated the Dharma path for Western readers. In his follow-up book, Awakening to the Sacred, he showed how to create a daily spiritual practice. While his first two books focused on developing an inner spiritual life, in AWAKENING THE BUDDHIST HEART shows listeners how to find a sacred dimension in our relationships with ourselves and others by actively taking our spiritual life out into the world. A more mainstream complement to his previous, AWAKENING THE BUDDHIST HEART shows how to develop a "spiritual intelligence" that reflects our relationships with each and every living thing around us. By applying the precepts of Tibetan Buddhism into our Western lives, we can learn how to take our spiritual practice out into the world, and into our family and community life. As humans, no matter how devout, we need to feel loved, to feel connected to each other as well as connected to a spiritual practice, and the quality of our individual lives is vastly determined by the quality of our relationships. As Surya Das writes, everyone has room for improvement, whether it's in their relationships with coworkers, friends, family, pets, the natural world, the community, everything and everyone—each relationship is important and essential for spiritual growth and development. Buddhism tells us that all of our bonds are sacred and sometimes our adversaries prove to be our greatest teachers. Surya Das teaches how to learn from those we love, as well as those we don't love, and how to let go of negative emotions while developing and expanding a spiritual intelligence. By providing specific exercises, meditations, and prayers to share spiritual energy with mates, children, friends, as well as strangers, and illustrated with contemporary Western situations that reflect Buddhist teachings, AWAKENING THE BUDDHIST HEART shows how by developing our spiritual intelligence we can find and nurture the sacred in all our relationships.
  • I read this book after I read the book "Awakening the Buddha Within" written by the same author, because I wanted to learn more about the Buddhist life philosophy. I found this book invaluable for my own personal growth. It helped me to learn how to deal with life's ups and downs. After reading this book I can honestly say I do understand myself better. It shown me the ways to make myself more at peace. and in general how to be a better person. I re-read sections of this book whenever I need a reminder how to stay focused when faced with everyday life's struggles. I hope this review will be more encouraging than a deterrent to read this book. I am a tough critic of the books I read and give very few book a 5 star rating, but I felt, based on what I got from this book, that this one deserved it.

  • Love this book. It is written in a way that is very easy to read and understand the Buddha’s teaching. I read the book in two days.

  • The book gives a great perspective of some of the basic of buddhism that are aplicable for everybody even if you are not religious. Great book, and beautiful insights.

  • This is a very inspiring book about living the Buddhist ideal in the real world of our western society. I don't have much to add to other reviews except to say that everyone can find something here. Probably everyone can find something different. I find something different every time I re-read a segment of this book.

  • A wonderful book to help you find the Buddha within.

  • I started with Awakening the Buddha Within followed by Awakening to the Sacred. I was hungry for more so I purchased Awakening the Buddhist Heart. Where the first two opened new doors, Awakening the Buddhist Heart deepened my on-going practice of showing up in love and service in the world. Unlike the first two, I had to set aside this book a few times so I could digest and implement such powerful and challenging practices. These three gems have inspired me to work toward becoming a Bodhisattva, being the presence of peace and loving kindness, intent on bringing love and compassion to all beings. I recommend Awakening the Buddhist Heart, but living its suggested practices is not for the faint-hearted.

  • Love this book!

  • I enjoy all of Lama Surya Das. This was a good book.
