Highly recommended book for all of those looking for a true spiritual path to follow. I began reading this and didn't stop until I finished. Life is crazy........this makes sense.

After reading "Being Peace" (by thich nhat hanh), I realized Buddhism was for me. Being raised catholic all my life, Buddhism was not only a refreshing ideological change, but a much more empowering idea for me to have/act upon. This book is a wonder, and a necessary read for anyone truly interested in buddhism.

I was a very lapsed Catholic who was searching for the next step in my spiritual evolution when I read this book. From then on I have been practicing Nichiren Buddhism and my life has been forever changed. In simple, believable language, this book leads you to a practice that helps you to find your Divinity.

This is a great book. But read for yourself! Buddha In Your Mirror makes absolute sense and prove to be practical because of the way it applies the principles of buddhism in our daily lives. Whether you're at work, with your friends, with joy, or facing obstacles, this book teaches that Buddha nature is WITHIN you to realize. Because Buddhism is practical, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows one to tap into that awakened nature. This book made me hold on to each page and read word for word. I testify to this as a profound book on Nichiren Daishonin's teachings. Isn't it time for you to discover yourself in the mirror?

The Buddha in Your Mirror does an outstanding job of explaining why and how each individual can make a difference in these confusing times. The authors clearly lay out the basic premises of Nichiren Buddhism in a way that should appeal to anyone who has ever wondered, "What is Buddhism and how is it relevant to my life?" As someone who has benefited from the book, I wholeheartedly recommend it.

This is an excellent book for the person that wants a clear explanation of what Buddhism is truly about.
Read it and believe it...
It works..

This is an excellent introduction to the growing Buddist tradition of Nichiren Buddhism. It covers questions that might be asked by a beginner, and it also goes into deeper areas such the soul, relationships, death, true happiness, and so on. I also recommend a book of wisdom titled "Open Your Mind, Open Your Life" by Taro Gold, which is filled with the wisdom of Nichiren Buddhism and makes a great companion book to this one.

This is a very good and simple book for those who are interested in Nichiren Daishonin Buddhism. You can also check out sgi-usa.org

You do not have to change your religion to apply these wonderful principles.
