BEAR AWARENESS by Ajahn Brahm

A Buddhist monk for over forty years, English-born Ajahn Brahm is the abbot of a monastery in Western Australia. He is also the author of six books, which have shown him to be a wise and funny teacher. We don’t normally carry specifically Buddhist books, but this one – consisting of answers to questions posed by his students – is so entertaining and helpful, with many wise stories and funny anecdotes. He is like a spiritual agony aunt, and I believe this book will be extremely helpful to those of us despairing of meditation, labouring with anxiety or grappling with the temptations of food, alcohol and sex.
