Buddha Takes No Prisoners | Free Book
In The Press
"A wise, clear, and playfully irreverent account of a meditator’s
journey. Patrick Ophuls speaks from experience as he points out the
depth of the teachings and the seductions along the way."
—Joseph
Goldstein, author of One Dharma: The Emerging Western Buddhism
"Erudite, humorous, intelligent, deeply insightful, extremely
well written, accurate, accessible.… I want all my sangha here to read
it."
—Robert K. Hall, founding teacher of the Lomi School, Santa
Rosa, California, and El Dharma retreat center, Todos Santos,
Mexico
"A good introduction for the beginner and a fresh perspective
for the experienced practitioner. Alternately makes us laugh at
ourselves and reminds us of the poignancy of the teachings."
—Sharon
Salzberg, author of A Heart as Wide as the World
"Ophuls gives us a no-nonsense, commonsense tour of
mindfulness-based meditation practice, pointing out
contradictions and pitfalls, and laughing at our pretentions. ... This
book will help you swim to the other shore."
—Wes Nisker, editor
in chief, Inquiring Mind
“Patrick Ophuls’ style is straight-forward and engaging. He
doesn’t cut any corners, and he doesn’t fluff up his writing… [Buddha Takes No Prisoners
is] approachable yet elevating… The book is like a FAQ for your
Buddhist practice. I definitely recommend it.”
—Home Brew Dharma
“Ophuls has done us all a favor by reframing meditation and the
essentials of Buddhism in imaginative terms that are both appealing
and edifying. Meditation, he says, is like spring-cleaning your heart
and mind.”
—Spirituality & Practice
