Here is what people are saying about the A Path with Heart : A Guide Through the Perils and Promises of Spiritual Life
"Prepare to take the journey of a lifetime--or two" | 2009-08-30 |

| I've read from this book almost daily for a month. I must take the messages along this path in small pieces or my spirit would rupture through its cozy human enclosure....so rich and so full, my heart and mind are meeting together and feasting with each step. |

"A heart-centered path into Buddhism" | 2009-07-13 |
| - Reviewed By carollinden |
| Buddhism did not make much of an impact on me when I studied it in college. And, though I respect several Buddhist leaders, the texts seemed very analytical and austere and did not draw me into discovering the heart-centered side of Buddhism. Kornfield's book A PATH WITH HEART turned all of that around for me. His words actually made me feel the compassion of Buddhism in a way that no one else ever had. If you tend to like or even seem to need a warm instead of cool, analytical approach, I heartily recommend this book. Thanks to Kornfield, I've gone on to read and enjoy other Buddhist teachers, such as Pema Chodran. Kornfield, however, remains the pinnacle of Buddhism teachers for me. I am deeply grateful for his ability to bring Buddhism out of my head and into my heart. |

This gentle yet profound book was truly life changing for me. I happened to read it while going through losing my career and getting a divorce simultaneously. It is a universal teaching and a classic for all no matter what religious belief. [...] |

| Kornfield's book is so soft-touch that it's very easy to miss just how hardcore and no-nonsense a practice he describes and advocates, and just how pragmatic it is. |

"So Many Words" | 2008-08-24 |

For some reason psychotherapy and Buddhism mixed together seem to create joyless writers. This is no exception.
Here is a lawyer joke. Lawyer tells his client, "I can write a 10 page opinion for 2 thousand dollars or a 2 page opinion for 10 thousand dollars. Which do you want?" We have the 10 page version.
Beware of authors who use their own quotes to begin each chapter. We are not talking modest. Why in the world would I want to read a quote as the kickoff of each chapter taken from the chapter itself? Perhaps the next edition will come underlined by the author.
There are many other books that cover the same ground with more wit, more depth and fewer words. Seek them out. |

"Excellent book" | 2008-06-30 |
| - Reviewed By al-the-optician |
| I found this book to be very helpful in approaching Buddhism generally and Buddhist meditation specifically. I learned a lot about what to expect out of any Buddhist practice as well as pitfalls. So why not 5 stars? Well, as an atheist I find certain things a little difficult to accept: rebirth and karma as an example. |
