Description

Wisdom in Exile offers a fresh perspective on Buddhism's encounter with Western culture. Lama Jampa Thaye draws on his extensive training and experience to explain the space for Buddhism in the West, highlighting critical conflicts and tensions that must be resolved. The book culminates with detailed instructions in the meditation system of 'The Four Immeasurables', allowing readers to properly orientate themselves within the world of Buddhism and learn how to practice. This approach provides a new insight into the Buddhist teachings, rediscovering their fundamental tenets for modern Westerners.
