Walk Like a Buddha

“Though its title refers to the Buddha, this book is an effective guide for helping readers reevaluate how they live life, disengage the autopilot, and be compassionate to others and themselves. The young Buddhist teacher [Rinzler] does not offer a universal answer to the pitfalls of worldly existence but rather engages with real issues asked by his column readers and friends.”—Publishers Weekly

“Filled with personal anecdotes that show Buddhist practice operating in the real world, Walk Like a Buddha opens the door for all those who feel unworthy of taking on Buddhist practices due to personal foibles.”—Booklist

“Unflinching in its exploration of Buddhist practice today … Rinzler offers a guidebook to developing an unconditional faith in our wakefulness.”—Shambhala Sun magazine

“Many readers will be delighted by a welcome departure from goody-goody attitudes toward Buddhist practice in Rinzler’s earnest dealings with ‘taboo’ subjects like sex and binge drinking…”—Tricycle

“It’s easy to be confused when you spot a book called Walk Like a Buddha—does Buddha even walk? But its author, Lodro Rinzler, has practiced Buddhism since he was 11 and might convince you to adopt some of the Buddha’s holy moves. Food for thought for your next stressful subway commute, day at work, or moment at home.”—Metro New York
