Book description
Christopher Titmuss believes that the work of the great Buddhist
writers can provide profound spiritual, religious, social, political and
environmental insights. This collection of inspirational quotes, one
thought-provoking excerpt for every day of the year, draws on the very
best Buddhist writings from early sages to the work of contemporary
writers such as Jack Kornfield and Thich Nhat Hanh. This is a book
readers will want to keep for many years, and dip into time and again.
Christopher Titmuss is the co-founder of one of the largest and most
respected retreat centres in Devon, from where he travels all over the
world to teach meditation. From 1962 to 1969 he worked as a reporter and
photojournalist in London, Turkey, Thailand, Laos and Australia - and
then spent six years as a Buddhist monk in Thailand and India. He is an
active supporter of global responsibility and is a founder member of the
12-strong international board of the Buddhist Peace Fellowship, and in
1986 and 1992 stood for Parliament for the Green Party.
