Like his colleagues Ram Dass and Jack Kornfield, Stephen Levine's power and widespread appeal as a teacher emanates from his deep life experience. A drug addict turned spiritual teacher, Levine tells how he learned to use his experience as a jumping off point from which to live and teach Buddhist principles and meditation, offering a powerful path to change working from the outside in.

Levine offers a fascinating and insightful description of mindfulness, loving kindness, and service (the three fundamentals of Buddhism). His text is rich with characters immediately recognizable as leaders of the modern Eastern spirituality movement, from the Dalai Lama to Timothy Leary. With compassion and healing, Levine offers the message that personal peace and transcendence is possible for all.
