Buddhist Philosophy

What is the secret to happiness? That’s a difficult question to answer. But if you listen to mainstream or social media, you might think it’s money or fame. We idolize celebrities and believe they have a perfect life. But are they really happy? We put so much hope into money and power. But once you have all these things this leaves you empty and thinking...why am I not happy even though I have everything I should want? So, what can we do? Buddhism teaches us that the solutions to our problems are within ourselves, not outside.

The man who would come to be known as Buddha experienced the extremes of hunger and poverty on the path that he had chosen for himself. Finally enlightened to the truths of life and suffering, he set off on a mission to spread his teachings far and wide. Today, the questions that he spent his life seeking answers to are more prevalent than ever before.

Why is it that you’re not bursting with ecstasy at every moment of every day? Why is there always a lingering sense of dissatisfaction and incompleteness in your life? The Buddha answered these questions, but not in an intellectual, philosophical way. He answered them with very practical, actionable advice for achieving the greatest, highest, most blissful happiness possible.

Unlike other books which explain what Buddhism is, I'd like to focus on my insight into practicing Buddhism, the experience of practicing it, and getting positive results. Buddhism is not a religion. Besides meditation, it's only a way of living your life. It's based on an understanding of the principles, and there are certain rules to follow if one wants to achieve positive results in his or her life. This audiobook is going to help you better understand what Buddhism is, how it can benefit you, and how you can apply it in your daily routine.
