What the human heart really wants is a reconnection with the harmony that permeates everything and in which it has its being. In this way its longing is fulfilled, and thus an active and joyful participation in and with all that is arises." This theme, the heart's search for wholeness, runs like a thread through the writings and teachings of Venerable Myokyo-ni.
The author points out that this need for fulfillment is the territory of all religious endeavor. The various traditions, however different in detail, all point to the same truths, to the universal, because our human nature, our human heart is the same. That human nature transcends the concepts of ancient, modern, Western, and Eastern is made clear by examining Far Eastern as well as Christian symbols, Buddhist allegories, as well as various aspects of C. G. Jung's analytical psychology.
This book is a guide. It guides the practitioner step by step through the Buddhist teachings, which are always clearly and thoroughly translated into concrete daily practice. These insightful pointers to practice on the path to wholeness have always been found helpful and encouraging by Myokyo-ni's students. May they continue to inspire and support others on the path.
