As evidenced by the tremendous success of the Dalai Lama"s The Art of Happiness, spiritual seekers all have one thing in common: they are desperate to find true happiness, to feel connected to others and to the universe at large. The irony the successful ones eventually come to understand is that the harder they look for it, the more elusive happiness becomes. Simple Bliss teaches you how to let go of your desires, your desperate seeking, to achieve real happiness. Drawing on centuries of Buddhist wisdom, Scott Shaw guides readers toward higher realization, deeper understanding, and a pervading sense of peace and strength. Delightful in its simplicity, powerful in its grace, Simple Bliss is a perfect introduction to the Buddhist concept of Nirvana, while at the same time a comforting book of meditations for those already on the path.
