Synopsis

(The author is donating 100% of all his proceeds from this book to charitable work to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha.)

Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenment (Volume 1)

Journey through The Words of The Buddha from the beginning of his first Teaching until his "last words" prior to death.

The book, "Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenment" is an essential guide on The Path to Enlightenment to help you learn and progress in your understanding and practice of Gotama Buddha's Teachings. Developed to provide you a framework to understand and practice The Buddha's Teachings to progress towards the attainment of Enlightenment - a peaceful, calm, serene, and content mind with joy that is permanent.

Gotama Buddha's teachings are not based in belief. His teachings need to be learned and practiced with guidance so that you can independently observe the truth in his teachings to acquire wisdom. It is this new found wisdom that the mind starts to gradually function in the world differently to attain a peaceful, calm, serene, and content mind with joy....the Enlightened mind.

Since everything we do is experienced through the mind if the mind is peaceful, calm, serene, and content with joy, one will experience a life that is also peaceful, calm, serene, and content with joy.

Attaining Enlightenment is a mind that has attained peace, calm, serenity, and contentedness with joy that is permanent. The mind can be trained to completely eliminate such discontent feelings as sadness, anger, frustration, irritation, annoyance, guilt, shame, fears, loneliness, boredom, shyness, jealousy, and all other negative feelings that cause the mind to be discontent and experience suffering.

Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenment provides the reader in-depth teachings and guidance to walk The Path to Enlightenment. Resources are provided, at no cost, that sync up with this book to allow the reader the opportunity to more fully explore these teachings through Youtube Videos, Podcasts, Online Courses, In-Person Courses/Retreats, and an Online Community where you can seek guidance in learning and practicing these teachings directly from the author of this book.

This book is well suited for beginning through to advanced practitioners to learn and practice the teachings of "The Buddha" to include developing a meditation practice as taught by Gotama Buddha. It is a book that you will read and re-read countless times as a guide on The Path to Enlightenment and you will have the ability to seek clarification of the teachings directly from the author at no cost.
