reviewed Cultivating Inner Peace: Exploring the Psychology, Wisdom, and Poetry of Gandhi, Thoreau, the Buddha, and Others on December 21, 2009 Cultivating Inner Peace: Exploring the Psychology, Wisdom, and Poetry of Gandhi, Thoreau, the Buddha, and Others
I read this book while doing service at Dhamma Dvara, a Vipassana Center in Germany. It is such an inspiring read! I enjoyed every page of it. Fleischman introduces the main principles that are the coordinates for a life full of inner peace. And then chapter by chapter, he describes each principle and presents people who are impersonations of these coordinates. He draws from examples of their day-to-day life, poetry, writings etc.
This book is a must if you seek great inspiration, ideas and examples on how to create for yourself a life full of inner peace. I extracted a long list of other works that i want to read some time soon. Last but not least, Fleischman is a Vipassana meditator. If you are one, too, you may find it interesting to read about his personal experience.
