This user's guide to Buddhist basics takes the most commonly asked questions-beginning with "What is the essence of the Buddha's teachings?"-and provides simple answers in plain English. Thubten Chodron's responses to the questions that always seem to arise among people approaching Buddhism make this an exceptionally complete and accessible introduction-as well as a manual for living a more peaceful, mindful, and satisfying Life. Buddhism for Beginnersis an ideal first book on the subject for anyone, but it's also a wonderful resource for seasoned students, since the question-and-answer format makes it easy to find just the topic you're looking for, such as- What is the goal of the Buddhist path? What is karma? If all phenomena are empty, does that mean nothing exists? How can we deal with fear? How do I establish a regular meditation practice? What are the qualities I should look for in a teacher? What is Buddha-nature? Why can't we remember our past lives?… (meer)

A really excellent book explaining the fundamentals of Buddhism in a clear and concise way. One to reread and refer to. It is written in a question and answer format. The audible version is read particularly well. Definitely a book I would recommend to another Beginner. It touches on some of the supernatural stuff too, being reborn etc, so it’s interesting to read about what Buddhists believe as well as what they have worked out as a philosophy of life. (

Interesting overview for someone who knows nothing about Buddhism.

Thanks again to Audible for Prime - an interesting opportunity to get an overview of Buddhism.
In many ways it's an extended FAQ about Buddhism - many questions answered (ones I'd never thought of) in a simple matter-of-fact manner. This isn't my faith, but it was an interesting introduction to give an outsider a good idea of the scope of Buddhism.

Exactly what I was wanting/needing to read; This book explains core Buddhist teachings and beliefs in a clear & simple way that is very accessible to a Western audience! His Holiness the Dalai Lama was correct in saying, "[This book] will be of much benefit to its readers." (

The book is written in question/answer format. It's not what people typically think of as a book - a very long FAQ pamphlet might be a better label. That said, I love the book. When I'm irritated or have a mind in chaos that can't otherwise focus (especially not long enough to read a book) I can open this book anywhere, start read anything and be reminded of where I want to be. It helps gently realign to a "Buddhist" mindset (at least what that means to me, no god or holy book required) so I can try again to be who I want be. (

Excellent book for people curious about Buddhism. Written without technical language. (
