We happen to reside in very interesting, but very challenging times. 2025 has delivered much turmoil to the shores of America and the world, as political factions battle for dominance. Many are struggling to find ways to adapt without falling prey to emotional chaos. Frustrations and anger can poison the mind. But these are real issues that are calling out to be addressed. Are there ways to cope with the challenges that will allow contemplatives to maintain our peaceful center of compassion and empathy?

Can the practice of Buddhist philosophy offer a solution? If so, how relevant is this ancient tradition to today's world? And if it is relevant, what practical impact does the philosophy of Buddhism present for those engaged with modern culture? And how how does awareness enter the picture?

The author is a practitioner of the Mahayana tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, following the path of the Bodhisattva, He attempts to address these questions, and more, through a series of essays. The goal is to reveal how Buddhist perspectives can be used to engage a wide variety of contemporary issues realistically, with awareness, mindfulness and compassion.

The book also contains an appendix with an informative data base of fundamental Buddhist concepts.
