The Buddha, Geoff And Me.

I read an awesome book. A book review is not due from me, but I guess this book is too good to keep it to myself. I think it is worth sharing.


Actually, it discuss about Buddhism and the life principles it offer. It takes a perspective of a skeptic, so I guess people who ain't Buddhist should try to follow the story. It shed some light on issues in life we encounter and it encourages us to be the best we can be. It brings me new insights I haven't recognise and provides nice quotes we can base our lives on.

I think I will post bits of the book here, some paragraphs I really think worth taking note of. Try to pick them between the posts. Its interesting, I supposed, keeps your mind active.

And, while looking for the bookcover, I found the audiobook. Surprise surprise. I think I am going to download all the audio and let them be permanent files with me. Anyway, the chapters for the audiobook are posted below and I genuinely hope you benefit from this, though I haven't listen to any of it.
A sidenote, keeping open-minded will definitely allow you to benefit greatly. Have fun listening.
