Description: This vintage trade paperback book is in 'like new' condition. STUMBLING TOWARD ENLIGHTENMENT by GERI LARKIN SPIRITUALITY Dharma from the Heartland When we embark on a spiritual path, somehow we believe (or hope) that it will be straight and smooth, a reward for making a moral, uplifting, wholesome choice. Few of us realize the obstacles that we must negotiate, or how steep and treacherous such a path can be. The reality is that spiritual enlightenment is a lot like learning how to walk: we stand up, we fall, we take a step, we fall, we take some more steps, we fall, we start to run, we fall, we run, we fall, ... until we finally fly. Stumbling Toward Enlightenment has evolved out of the constant requests for written copies of the dharma talks given by the author at the Ann Arbor Buddhist Temple and the Chicago Zen Buddhist Temple. It has become her promise to stand with us, right beside us, as we stumble along the path that has brought her so much joy, heartache, peace, confusion and finally self-knowledge. Her style is honest, earthy, often wildly funny, and even a little bit scrappy. This is not stern, only dry, detached Zen. This is accessible Zen. This is Zen from the heartland.
