Turning the Mind Into an Ally Paperback - 2004
by Sakyong Mipham
Accessible and clear, this national bestseller on Buddhism--now available in paperback--shows how to cultivate a strong, stable mind and no longer live "at the mercy of our moods."
Summary
Strengthening, calming, and stabilizing the mind is the essential first step in accomplishing nearly any goal. Growing up American with a Tibetan twist, Sakyong Mipham talks to Westerners as no one can: in idiomatic English with stories and wisdom from American culture and the great Buddhist teachers. Turning the Mind Into an Ally makes it possible for anyone to achieve peace and clarity in their lives.
First line
Many of us are slaves to our minds.
