The Beginner’s Guide to Karma

Reviews

“The book’s short chapters allow for a quick read, but readers can also elect to take their time by using the end-of-chapter exercises to focus on inner peace and building good karma. To that end, the authors include useful meditations, examples of virtuous and nonvirtuous acts, and visualizations in appendices. A short but detailed introduction that may inspire readers to set out on a karmic journey.”

“What goes around comes around — this essential idea of karma dates back to the Hindu Upanishads and is an important facet of many of the world’s most ancient religions. However, according to Lama Lhanang Rinpoche and Mordy Levine, it was the Buddha who introduced a less mechanistic understanding of karma. Their book explores the Buddhist interpretation, highlighting subtleties, such as the difference between light versus heavy karma.”
