  CELEBRATE MY NEW BOOK RELEASE! SELF-COMPASSION: HOW TO TAME YOUR INNER CRITIC AND AMPLIFY YOUR SPIRITUAL HEALTH Released on December 5th, 2020 Dear Friends, I’m excited to announce that my latest book “SELF-COMPASSION: How to Tame Your Inner Critic and Amplify Your Spiritual Health” was published on Amazon.com today, December 5th, 2020. The fundamental teachings of philosophical Buddhism, both the Suttas and the Abhidhamma, are rich and indicative that people should look inward first before seeing outward. The practice of self-compassion signifies the beginning of this inner journey. Many people who seek material pursuits lack self-compassion and compassion for others. The material mentality can be competitive and promotes selfishness and the insight that the spiritual life can bring well-being is lost.

  CELEBRATE MY NEW BOOK RELEASE! SELF-COMPASSION: TRANSFORM SELF (ATTĀ) INTO NON-SELF (ANATTĀ) (JAPANESE EDITION) Released on October 5th, 2020 Dear Friends, I’m excited to announce that my eighth Japanese book “Self-Compassion: Transform Self (attā) into Non-Self (anattā),” (Japanese Edition) was published on Amazon today, October 5th, 2020. An impeccable Japanese translation was provided by the esteemed author, Yoshiko. This book presents self-compassion within a conventional self (attā) and how one would then be able to transform that compassionate self into non-self (anattā). In addition, I have examined that non-self isn't a sudden perspective, yet rather a skillful development of a compassionate self. I am very delighted and honored to add this latest addition to the Japanese readership. May you be well and happy!
