Guide to the Buddhas: review by Lois Elsden

From book reviews on Fri, 31 Aug, 2012 - 12:34Every so often, you’re standing in a bookshop, or a library, or a friend’s house, your eyes drifting along all the tempting titles of the books on the shelves and almost idly you pick one up… and ten, fifteen, thirty minutes later you would still be standing there unless interrupted by something or someone or called for dinner or to go and get a cup of coffee…The blurb on the back describes this book as a way to “meet the...

From Free Buddhist Audio on Thu, 30 Aug, 2012 - 23:25

Det var alltså förklaringen till de muslortsaktiga spillningarna på golvet som jag ibland går och sopar upp. Antagligen lever den i timmerväggen. Jag har också sett grönfinksungar göra sig redo för att flyga, sittandes lite vingligt i äppelträdet.
