Pragmatic Buddhist Book Group
Details
This month we'll be discussing "The Faith to Doubt - Glimpses of Buddhist Uncertainty" by Stephen Batchelor. In this engaging spiritual memoir, Stephen Batchelor describes his own training, first as a Tibetan Buddhist and then as a Zen practitioner, and his own direct struggles along his path. “It is most uncanny that we are able to ask questions, for to question means to acknowledge that we do not know something. But it is more than an acknowledgement: it includes a yearning to confront an unknown and illuminate it through understanding. Questioning is a quest.” Feel free to join even if you haven't read the book.
