Maha Ghosananda is the Supreme Patriarch of Cambodian Buddhism. For years he has worked with refugees and victims of the Khmer Rouge reign of terror. Dith Pran once called him "the dreamkeeper of Cambodia" on account of his keeping alive the heritage of the people. In this deeply spiritual and inspiring collection of talks and writings this Buddhist monk celebrates the virtues of equanimity, compassion, mindfulness, living in the present moment, and loving kindness. But the heart and soul of "Step by Step" is his vision of making peace. It is a path that is chosen consciously. It requires silence and the ability to listen. Making peace also involves the skills of teamwork and cooperation. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

I first learned about Maha Ghosananda when I saw his obituary last year in The Economist. I was amazed at his story and wanted to learn more. He was a Cambodian Buddhist monk who lived through the horrors of the Khmer Rouge. His entire family and many friends were murdered. His religion's temples were desecrated. But instead of becoming bitter, he taught his people to love their enemies and to have compassion for them.
This is a short book of meditations on topics such as peace, happiness, wisdom, and compassion. Each meditation is very short and simple but very profound and practical.
