Waking Up in America  -  Ken Taub

The Possibility of an Earthy Enlightenment amidst all the excess, the stress, the pleasure, and the pain

KORTE INHOUD

Fresh... down to earth...witty... deeply insightful. WAKING UP IN AMERICA is all that, and more. An American who works (and plays) with the wisdom of Buddhist teachings, Ken Taub probes his own life experience to see how we must awaken within our own culture, and start not from some ideal place but from where we are. This unique book addresses some important contemporary questions. Is it possible to balance our quest for enlightenment with our quest for pleasure? In a culture built on perpetual distraction, how can we find that quiet center of acceptance and wholeness? And what, exactly, is Hot Tub Zen? WAKING UP IN AMERICA is a compelling exploration of the simple premise that we finally get to have a really good time once we are awake and paying attention to what's right in front of us.
