What Readers Are Saying

 

“Moffitt’s book is a gem: it is a handbook to help us develop and hone our skills so that we respond to our suffering in a way whereby we are not defined by it. The book—an explication of the Four Noble Truths, which is the Buddha’s primary teaching—is well organized, full of examples from Moffitt’s life and the lives of his students, and is eminently readable. His style is lucid and alive, and his book is a treasure to savor. I highly recommend this book to anyone whether or not they are familiar with the Buddha’s teachings.”
— B.

“Your book has truly been a wonderful addition and catalyst for my new experience of “falling in love with the Dharma.” I look forward to experiencing your continued teaching and listening deeply to the Dharma ... internalizing ... certainly, my intention is set!”
— Michelle

“One of my patients walked into my office yesterday, sat down, let out a big sigh, and said, "I've been dancing with life all week!” Yes, he is reading your book and getting so much out of it.”
— Lisa, MFT

“I’m enjoying reading Dancing with Life. I just recently finished the portion where you introduced the three ego-renunciation practices. They are now part of my daily recitation of the precepts, and more importantly a very fruitful and challenging practice when not on the cushion.” 
— Dawn

“You may recall that I asked if your book would provide practical applications or examples of the 4 Noble Truths and the corresponding 12 insights. You assured me it would. I found one particular passage to be amazingly concise as well as entirely useful in my day-to-day dealings. I am quite sure that I will refer to it often as it provides one of the best summaries of why I recently removed the words good, bad, want and wait from my vocabulary with the word hope not far behind. I am now working on keeping them at bay in my thinking before they can start me on the well-worn path from pain to suffering.” 
— Stan
