Review: Ordered a new book, appeared to receive a second hand one - The packaging was fine, but the book itself was damaged and worn. See photos. Spine cracked in three places, corner bent over and a large ugly sticker pasted on the back! The contents, no argument there, this is a great little book. If you receive a damaged one, return it for a refund or replacement which you are entitled to. If you want this book, you really don't want it in anything other than mint condition because that is what it deserves! I've given 5 stars because of the book, not the condition this one was in.
Review: Excellent introduction and transaltion of one of the great foundational religious texts. - The introduction and translation is by Mascaro who had a great sensivity to mystical / religious matters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent introduction and transaltion of one of the great foundational religious texts.
*by J***S on 21 September 2025*

The introduction and translation is by Mascaro who had a great sensivity to mystical / religious matters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiration in daily life
*by L***I on 4 July 2019*

I heard some of this on a retreat. I've read other translations by Juan Mascaro and he captures the spiritual and reflective quality of teachings. So if you want inspiration and connected moments in your daily life then I recommend this beautiful translation. If you are studying Buddhism then there may be other newer more scholarly translations. So far, I am dipping into this and always find something helpful and uplifting. Enjoy!
