Opening the Lotus by Sandy Boucher
Part primer, part personal history, part guide to spiritual practice, this book opens the door to an understanding of Buddhist spirituality, which engages more and more Westerners as the millennium approaches. Through personal anecdotes, lively explanations, and thoughtful discussions, Sandy Boucher presents a female perspective on fundamental Buddhist teachings such as compassion, detachment, and enlightenment. Includes a directory of women teachers in the United States, Canada, and abroad.
Sandy Boucher, a leading spokesperson on women and Buddhism, is the author of several books including She Appears! Encounters with Kwan Yin Goddess of Compassion; Discovering Kwan Yin; Opening the Lotus; and Turning the Wheel. In 1979, Boucher was granted the National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship in Literature for her extensive work. Born and raised in Ohio, she now resides in Oakland, California.
