Review "Everyday Buddhism set the mark very high--to assemble the vast wisdom of Buddhist teachings and offer them as a garment that can be worn throughout the day as our life unfolds in ordinary, yet miraculous ways. Wendy Shinyo Haylett hit that mark, in fact, surpassed it, by offering a book on Buddhism that is relevant, practical and offers no answers. Instead, it stimulates reflection and encourages us to figure out Buddhism in our human lives, in the real world, rather than in our heads." ~ Gregg Krech, Author of The Art of Taking Action: Lessons from Japanese Psychology "Wendy's down-to-earth writing is a refreshing expression of the Dharma teachings. More than 10 years ago Wendy completed our Bright Dawn Center's Lay Ministry Program, which focuses on the writings of my father, Rev. Gyomay Kubose. The core of his approach emphasizes a non-dualistic expression of the Dharma teachings. I feel Wendy is carrying on my father's legacy in her own creative way. It is gratifying to see how Wendy's "Everyday Buddhism" encompasses aspects of my father's approach. I particularly admire how she shows the relevance of traditional teachings to daily life. ~ Rev. Koyo Kubose, Spiritual Head of The Bright Dawn Center of Oneness Buddhism "It is an open question whether a non-dualistic tradition like Buddhism can take root in America's Judeo-Christian culture. 'Mature and accomplished spiritual knowledge can be had only within a living tradition. It is the tragedy of our time that so many of those who thirst for spiritual wisdom are forced to think it out for themselves--always in vain. There is no such thing as a pure spirituality in the abstract. There are only separate lineages handed down traditionally from the past.' (Edward Conze). Buddhist teachings have been progressively filtering into Western culture since the American Revolution and are now seeping into our secular society. Everyday Buddhism reflects that influence. Through her open-minded and sincere investigation, Wendy Haylett seeks to share the flavor of her Buddhist practice with a secular audience. It is my prayer that readers will experience the benefits she has experienced and willfurther explore this transformative tradition." ~ Frank Howard, Director - White Lotus Buddhist Center "Wendy reminds us that Buddhism is practical and that by experiencing Buddhist concepts and teachings in our ordinary day-to-day lives, we can "become the Dharma." Everyday Buddhism covers all the basics and then goes beyond to explain so much more while maintaining a down to earth style and approach that is inviting and easy to understand." ~ Noah Rasheta, author and host of the podcast Secular Buddhism. "Wendy Shinyo Haylett has a supreme talent for making Buddhism accessible to all. As her popular podcast testifies, her down to earth wisdom and the twinkle in her eye show us how the Buddha's teachings are relevant to our lives today. An engaging and joyful book." ~ Rev. Satya Robyn, Priest - Amida Mandala Buddhist Temple
