Mindfulness In Plain English, Bhante Henepola Gunaratana

3.5 stars
This book is written by a Buddhist for those interested in a specific type of Buddhist practice known as vipassana meditation (or understood in its simpler form, mindfulness). I read it as one interested to find what might be gleaned and applied to the practice of Christian spirituality. Although I disagree with the world view this text was written through, and therefore with many of the conclusions, I did find Gunaratana's instruction regarding mindfulness quite helpful. It's link to wisdom and the overarching call to be more aware of our thoughts and actions were a welcomed teaching as I think about what it entails to live out the life and teachings of Christ.
