Gotama Buddha's teachings are not based in belief. His teachings need to be learned and practiced with guidance so that you can independently observe the truth in his teachings to acquire wisdom. It is with this new found wisdom that the mind starts to gradually function in the world differently to attain a peaceful, calm, serene, and content mind with joy....the Enlightened mind.
Since everything we do is experienced through the mind, if the mind is peaceful, calm, serene, and content with joy, one will experience a life that is also peaceful, calm, serene, and content with joy.
Attaining Enlightenment, also known as Nibbana, is a mind that has attained peace, calm, serenity, and contentedness with joy that is permanent. The mind can be trained to completely eliminate such discontent feelings as sadness, anger, frustration, irritation, annoyance, guilt, shame, fears, loneliness, boredom, shyness, jealousy, and all other negative feelings that cause the mind to be discontent and experience suffering.
This book, "Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Nibbana" provides the reader in-depth teachings and guidance to walk The Path to Enlightenment. Resources are provided, at no cost, that sync up with this book to allow the reader the opportunity to more fully explore these teachings through Youtube Videos, Podcasts, Online Courses, In-Person Courses/Retreats, and an Online Community where you can seek guidance in learning and practicing these teachings directly from the author of this book.
This book is well suited for beginning through to advanced practitioners to learn and practice the teachings of "The Buddha" to include developing a meditation practice as taught by Gotama Buddha.
