Random list of 10 books Monday! I have read and enjoyed each of these enough to flag for a potential personal library purchase.

Be bold and just choose randomly, stick to your normal genre...or step outside of your normal reading zone and try something you usually wouldn’t. You can look up the descriptions at Amazon.com, or search my blog for old posts by entering the title in the little search box in the top left-hand corner and clicking the magnifying glass.

Awakening the Buddha Within

Lama Surya Das has been an inspiration to me along my spiritual path. His book “Awakening the Buddha Within” is brilliant.

Becoming more aware of yourself and the world around you is vital to growth as a human being. This book helps guide the spiritually inclined through the key principals of Buddhism. It turned my focus inward and to wisdom and love. Most importantly, it helped me continue on the path to building my compassionate nature, and giving back to the less fortunate.

Buddhist or not, this book will help you on your journey, if you are currently aware of your journey.
