Tranquillity Leading to Insight
This book explores the theme of meditation practices. This subject is approached in a realistic manner whilst using historical settings to emphasise the power of the mind and the importance of training the mind to stay in the present moment. To find true happiness one needs to find the path leading to it. The principal aim of this book is to explain the practical application of Mindfulness to achieving spiritual awakening and ending suffering. This book also demonstrates the continued relevance of Buddhist teachings with regard to overcoming the psychological ramifications that obstruct the way to happiness. Distilled into twenty two chapters using readily accessible language this is a concise and comprehensive guide. With reference to a range of similar texts this book reveals how to extract the pure gold of consciousnesses as was taught by the enlightened Buddha. Grounded in profound scholarship and Buddhist philosophical psychology the book brings these ancient teachings to the modern world. This book also explores the historical times of the Buddha and shares the story of the cultural awakening that took place across South and South East Asia after his enlightenment.

Old Wisdom in the New World
An interesting examination of two Theravada Buddhist temples in Chicago and Los Angeles highlighting the relationship between historical and traditional practices, and the values of American converts and second generation Asian-American Buddhists. Numrich (religion research associate, U. of Illinois) considers the adaptations and maladaptations of Westerners into temple life, monastic staffs, parallel congregations, and issues of "lay" ordination, and attempts to integrate West and East as the interest in Buddhism in America increases.
