Synopsis

The Fragrance of the Lotus is a collection of daily teachings originally circulated among the members of the Lotus Sangha of World Social Buddhism—a community of several thousand practitioners living and working primarily in Europe, the Americas, and Asia—of which Great Dharma Master Ji Kwang is the "Chung Chong," or Supreme Matriarch.

These daily teachings were intended to serve her immediate students as personal reminders of the meaning of unhindered clarity and compassion. Gathered into chapters with such titles as "Social Buddhism," "Relationships," "Surmounting Suffering," "World Peace," "Success, Work, and Diligence," "Human Mind and Thinking," and "Beauty," Great Dharma Master Ji Kwang's teachings brilliantly integrate private, inner concerns with social issues and guidance for living as a Buddhist in the world. The brief messages are perfect for dipping into whenever one feels the need for illumination in the midst of our hectic lives in the often confusing and challenging 21st century.
