Learning to 'let go' sits at the heart of day to day Buddhist practice. It is essential in dealing with the difficulties and troubles of everyday life using the principles of Buddhist psychology.

The second part of the book reflects on the essential unity of Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism and Gnostic Christianity. An excellent insight into Buddhist teachings and the art of letting go.
