Summary: Buddhisciously bright, brilliant, basics of Buddhahood!
Comment: What a treat! Herbie Hancock's melodious foreword opens the heart of the reader for a delightfully written, brilliantly executed introduction to Nichiren Daishonin's amazing yet practical Buddhism. The authors deliver a light, affirmative exposition of one of the world's fastest growing and most dynamic "spiritual technologies" that strengthens the human soul, empowering anyone willing to put it to use with a richer more powerful life-force to face the challenges of contemporary society. Quick paced and refreshingly to the point, this is a joyful read that strips away the cloak of religious authority, rendering highly complex and profound spiritual concepts in simple to understand contexts that make them applicable to our daily lives. The clarity and flow of the text is actual proof that the three voices of Hochswender, Martin and Morino harmoniously demonstrate the power of the simple Buddhist practice they so eloquently advocate. This book is a compelling and hopeful guide that informs the reader that enlightenment is not an unreachable golden ring but instead, a very real and useful state of being available to each of us willing to put it to the test in the ever changing perfect mirror of the eternal here and now!

Summary: A Book on Buddhism that Makes Sense!
Comment: This book is amazing. This book is a guide to becoming happy. In clear, easy to understand, encouraging words, the Buddha in Your Mirror gets to the heart of Buddhism, and instructs one on how to practice Buddhism correctly in this day and age. One of the most encouraging ideas in the book, is that everyone has a Buddha nature inside of them, and that anyone can tap into to this resevoir of happiness. Concepts such as Esho Funi (the oneness of life and environment), illustrate how our surroundings mirror our life condition, and the way to change our surroundings is by changing ourselves first, and then our environment responds to that change. This book leads people of this day and age who are thursting for happiness and trying to understand life, on the straight path to enlightenment. Putting this book's teachings (Nichiren Buddhism) to work takes effort, but the results are invaluable.

Summary: Possibly the most useful self-help book there is.
Comment: Nichiren Buddhism is a dynamic philosophy, yet a practical one that has guided millions throughout the world in the quest to overcome one's obstacles and become truly happy, as well as to help others to achieve that same goal. As one who has practiced this great Buddhism for twenty-six years, I have shared with many people - friends, colleagues, family, and acquaintances alike - the incredible power of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo (the primary practice of this great Buddhism), and to share my experiences in applying the practice to the challenges of my daily life. As such, I can truly appreciate what Mssrs. Martin, Hochswender, Morino, and Hancock have done here in creating a superb "road map" to this great Buddhism, making even what would seem the most complicated concepts of Nichiren Buddhist philosophy and worldview easy and accessible by everyone. In so doing, they have created a self-help book of the highest order. I highly recommend this book, not just to anyone, but to everyone. As Herbie Hancock, jazz pianist par excellance and twenty-nine year practitioner of this great Buddhism, says in his foreword, "What have you got to lose - except your blues?"
