About This Book
Why is Buddhism the fastest-growing religion in the West?
Journalist and bestselling author Vicki Mackenzie explores this question through candid conversations with Western practitioners who have integrated Buddhism into their personal and professional lives.
Drawing on 25 years of experience across Australia, the UK and the USA, Mackenzie interviews a diverse range of voices including counsellors, writers, a woman lama, a terminal cancer patient, composer Philip Glass, Buddhist nun Robina Courtin, actor Tracy Mann, photographer Clive Arrowsmith and Zen teacher Yvonne Rand.
Their reflections explore:
Consciousness and compassion
Work and worldly success
Family and relationships
Nature and death
Reincarnation and other faiths
At a time when Western culture often feels dominated by materialism and individualism, this book examines why thoughtful people are turning toward Buddhist ethics, spiritual practice and community as a wiser way to live.
