"There is no less suffering in the world today," writes Buddhist teacher Geshe Kelsang Gyatso in this clarifying and genuinely instructive primer on the foundation of Buddhism, in spite of how technology has changed the material world. In fact, new technologies have caused dire new global problems, compounding the already demanding challenges inherent in the attempt to live a morally disciplined life. The author of nearly 20 books based on Kadampa Buddhism, a school founded by the Indian Buddhist master Atisha (982-1054 C.E.), Geshe Kelsang Gyatso illuminates the very heart of Buddhist thought and practice by offering exceptionally clear explanations of why individuals should seek to develop their "capacity of mind," and how the law of karma makes every action relevant not only to an individual's life but also to the very future of humankind. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso has a unique gift for simultaneously addressing everyday difficulties--particularly in his useful and inspiring elucidation of how to control anger and practice patience--and bringing into focus the spiritual dimension in which they reverberate.
