Description

Alan Senauke’s book of essays — The Bodhisattva’s Embrace: Dispatches from Engaged Buddhism’s Front Lines — is available from Clear View Press.

The Bodhisattva’s Embrace assembles pieces written over the last twenty years, traveling to troubled places in Asia and the U.S., along with dharma reflections on the suffering we all see and feel. Alan has also included some of his photographs, intended to complement the writing.

“For friends and followers of the Dharma, this collection illumines the promise of our practice and its relevance to our world today. Shorn of sentimentality and electric with caring, Alan Senauke is a trustworthy guide. His essays serve me both as reports from the field and inspirational reading.” — Joanna Macy: teacher, author of World as Lover, World as Self
