  Part of Buddhist practice involves training our minds through meditation. But if our training in calming our minds, developing qualities like love, compassion, generosity and patience, is to be effective, we must put them into practice in day to day life. This book Dharma Moments contains plentiful contemporary advice on how we can do that in words that are easy to understand. The Buddha's teachings are both subtle and profound, but it is very important that they are made accessible in a way that people can actually put them into effect and derive real benefit from them. I am sure this book will achieve this. - From the Foreword by His Holiness, The Dalai Lama. Dharma Moments will help you tackle the root cause of whatever is causing you distress - and explain how the Buddha's teaching can transform every aspect of your life. Dharma Moments is a collection of contemporary parables on Buddhist teachings with everyday topics presented in an engaging and highly readable style. It presents practical lessons that are easy to understand and relate to, and includes real life examples that help bring the Buddhist teachings into our modern, everyday lives.
