Synopsis

366 daily doses of profound and practical Buddhist teachings for true transformation.

Why do so many people still embrace the wisdom of Buddhism, even after 2,500 years? Although the world looked very different when the Buddha walked the earth, humans still dealt with the same fundamental problems we face today: they grappled with difficult and overwhelming emotions, suffered from discontentment, struggled to find peace, and longed for happiness. 

These are the very challenges that Buddhist philosophy can help us overcome, empowering us to transform into fearless, compassionate, and joyful individuals. Buddhism provides a framework we can use to lead a great life—one in which we are kinder, have greater resilience, are more adaptable to change, and experience greater lightness and joy.

The Daily Buddhist offers daily teachings of Buddhist wisdom and practices to help us navigate the challenges of everyday life. Drawing from many of the greatest Buddhist masters throughout history—renowned Indian philosophers like Nagarjuna and Santideva; Tibetan masters like Milarepa, Patrul Rinpoche, and Chögyam Trungpa; and, of course, the Buddha himself—the authors, Buddhist scholars and practitioners, deliver daily doses of Buddhist insights tailored for 21^st century living. Each day of the year, you’ll receive an insightful quote from a Buddhist master paired with a thought-provoking reflection that’s accessible, practical, and modern.

Over the course of the year, you’ll learn:

• How mindfulness can help you find inner peace
• How to make friends with yourself through meditation
• How to overcome difficult emotions like anger, jealousy, and anxiety
• Why cultivating compassion leads to happiness
• Why you are not your thoughts
• How to tame your inner critic
• How to discover happiness that actually lasts

This profound yet practical approach to Buddhist philosophy provides tools for true transformation. By the end of the year, you'll see the world and your mind in a new light, propelling you along the path to lasting happiness, self-mastery, and inner freedom.
