The Haywards lead retreats on the Shambhala teachings of Chogyam Trungpa, one of the pioneers of Buddhism in the West. This book is the second edition of Jeremy Hayward's Sacred World: A Guide to Shambhala Warriorship in Daily Life (Bantam, 1995), herein completely revised. One of the book's purposes is to show the reader how to recover perception of the heart. The Haywards take the reader on a journey through ordinary experience into the sacred world, uncovering obstacles to living in sacredness and exploring ways to work with these obstacles. Their meditations, personal insights, anecdotes, and mindfulness exercises guide the reader toward self-knowledge and empathy. The Haywards were friends and students of Trungpa, who died in 1987. A helpful addition to collections on Western and Eastern approaches to living.?Leroy Hommerding, Citrus Cty. Lib. System, Inverness, FL
