About This Item

Marre, MA: Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, 2017. 255 pp, 9" H. "This book is offered as a support for all of us dealing with one very real question: How do we continue seeking and finding happiness, inner tranquility, and wisdom in our elder years? Through both scholarly examination and thoughtful reflection, these selected discourses guide us in how to apply the teachings of the Buddha to our daily life and practice. Embodying the teachings in this way, we find that even in our elder years it is still very much possible to find ease and joy, even while dealing with the inevitabilities of aging, sickness, and death. The three teachers offer a range of perspectives speaking to a wide range of interests, points of view, and levels of experience with meditation and Buddhism. A collection of reflections is additionally offered, which can be used both for private contemplation or to support discussions among friends or communities." Section headings: A Shift in Focus: A Time for Retiring; Equanimity; Aging; Illness; Death and Dying; Mourning; Practice. Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - minor small crease at to top fore-edge of the rear cover - migrates into a few pages.. Not Signed. Soft Cover. Very Good+.
