A Path with Heart: A Guide Through the Perils and Promises of Spiritual Life

By Jack Kornfield

If you are actively practicing to marry the spiritual with the everyday, this book holds many insights, practical tools, and a strong supportive voice for the challenges of pursuing a spiritual practice in a world that acts to thwart your efforts at every turn.

Jack Kornfield helps East meet West, and vice versa, a in a way that I felt comforting. I’ve had the opportunity to be in friend’s homes where they took out their rag-tag, underlined and bookmarked copy of this book as if it were a lifeline. Jack Kornfield does that, gives us all a lifeline on our spiritual journey when we feel like we’re “the only one” experiencing the mishaps along the way.

I was greatly relieved and comforted, and still am, when reading Jack’s other book:
