| Summary |
"In "Buddhism for Dudes," Gerry "Strib" Stribling, former Marine and all-around good guy, answers questions on life and living with a healthy dose of Buddhist wisdom for the regular guy. Strib takes a good look at who the Buddha was, meditation, karma, and more. With good humor and without sentimentalism (plus a sprinkling of hilarious cartoons), he explains these down-to-earth insights in everyday language. Showing how Buddhism boldly approaches life's problems head on, unflinching and alert--like a soldier in a forward listening post in the dark of night--Strib emphasizes the Buddhist call to moral action for the good of oneself and others."--Provided by publisher. |
