This book makes me think enlightenment is possible and necessary.Russell Brand
One of the most generous, beautiful, and essential books I’ve ever read – thoroughly engaging, so clear, so honest, so courageous and full of wisdom. In it, deep Buddhist teachings are presented with frankness and great clarity – like a friend talking to a friend. It is also a great adventure story, really, about the most important adventure any of us can ever embark upon; the story of one noble soul attempting to come to an understanding of the workings of his own mind and thereby live in a truly sane and loving way. This book has the potential to change the reader’s life forever.George Saunders, Booker Prize-winning author of Lincoln in the Bardo
I loved this book. It is moving and inspiring, profound and utterly human. It will certainly be a classic. Mingyur’s life-changing adventure carries us with him and teaches us how to find the unshakable heart amidst it all.Jack Kornfield, author of A Path With Heart
One of the most inspiring books of our times. An extraordinary testimony and a profound teaching that keeps you reading with wonderment, page after page. A treasury of insights to go ever deeper in your spiritual practice and in giving meaning to your life.Matthieu Ricard, author of Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life’s Most Important Skill and Altruism: The Power of Compassion to Change Yourself and the World
