This rich, timely, and highly original portrait of the Buddha explores both the archetypal religious icon and Buddha the man. In lucid and compelling prose, Armstrong brings to life the Buddha's quest, from his renunciation of his privileged life to the discovery of a truth that he believed would utterly transform human beings and enable them to live at peace in the midst of life's suffering.

Our ego, and its accompanying sense of nagging self-doubt as we work to be bigger, better, smarter, and more in control, is one affliction we all share. In Advice Not Given, Dr. Mark Epstein reveals how Buddhism and Western psychotherapy, two traditions that developed in entirely different times and places and, until recently, had nothing to do with each other, both identify the ego as the limiting factor in our well-being, and both come to the same conclusion: When we give the ego free reign, we suffer; but when it learns to let go, we are free.

Now, with the same brilliance and boldness of thought, he paints a groundbreaking portrait of the historical Buddha—told from the author's unique perspective as a former Buddhist monk and modern seeker.

Some 25 centuries after the Buddha started teaching, his message continues to inspire people across the globe, including those living in predominantly secular societies. What does it mean to adapt religious practices to secular contexts? Stephen Batchelor, an internationally known author and teacher, is committed to a secularized version of the Buddha's teachings. The time has come, he feels, to articulate a coherent, ethical, contemplative, and philosophical vision of Buddhism for our age.

There's a rebel within you. It's the part of you that already knows how to break free of fear and unhappiness. This rebel is the voice of your own awakened mind. It's your rebel buddha - the sharp, clear intelligence that resists the status quo. It wakes you up from the sleepy acceptance of your day-to-day reality and shows you the power of your enlightened nature. It's the vibrant, insightful energy that compels you to seek the truth.

Description
Before it was a religion, a culture, or even a system of meditation, what was Buddhism? On Buddhism Without Beliefs, celebrated teacher, translator, and former Buddhist monk Stephen Batchelor takes us back to the first years after the Buddha's awakening to reveal the root insights of Buddhism hidden beneath centuries of history and interpretation.
In eight compelling sessions of self-inquiry - including many fascinating exercises and practices - we learn how to awaken and refine our senses, introduce the essential spirit of curiosity into the practice of awareness, and comprehend with both our hearts and our minds the Buddha's astonishing (and often misunderstood) revelations on emptiness, compassion, and the self. Before he died, the Buddha did not appoint a successor. He simply remarked that each of us must be responsible for our own freedom.
Buddhism without Beliefs is an invitation to hear what the Buddha taught - and to trust yourself on your own path to liberation.

Disappointing
I was diappointed. I found the narrator slow, stilted and condescending. Probably partly due to the material. I struggled to stay with the book but finally gave up after two chapters

Four Noble Tasks!
I’ve read/listened to several of Stephen’s books. I’ve just heard this one a 2nd time. Western agnostic takes on Buddhism are increasingly common in no small part because of his practice. I’m grateful. What he’s done and said help me get unstuck in the flow of new ideas and beliefs I can easily cling,.. it becomes possible to just get on with an intentional life.
He’s synthesizing (and translating) so many texts!! I listen without trying to confirm and cross-reference what I know. That’s hard and so similar to sitting meditation. I appreciate why some find it dense. I don’t. The ways he explains Buddhist and cultural concepts several ways gives me less concern and more clarity.

Title a little misleading
This isn't so much an introduction to secular Buddhism as it is a kind of "200-level" class on Buddhism. It's still great though, and the narration is fantastic. Love the author's voice and cadence.

Disingenuous.
I expected this would be the text of the book, presented in audio. This is something else. Not happy about the bait-and-switch. I'm sure the material is terrific, it's just not what was promoted, and not what I was looking for.

Not the book. Something else.
I read the book and hoped to listen to it again. However, this is not the book. Some of the material is similar but it goes into meditations. Not what I was after. Usually when you buy an audiobook it’s the book. Not something else. Would not recommend this. Difficult to listen to given the speech pattern of the author/narrator.

Wonderful!
Any additional comments?
I am not a buddhist, even though I'm interested in buddhist "themes": impermanence, emptiness, mindfulness, loving kindness, death and dying, etc. I've read a number of authors of many different traditions (Zen, Tibetan Buddhism, etc.), and Stephen Batchelor was the only one I felt wasn't speaking in riddles or trying to convey a sense of mystery that I never felt was necessary. And here I don't mean, for instance, Zen koans or Zen stories - I mean the convoluted and pasteurized speech of some Western buddhist teachers.
As an atheist, this is as close as I'll ever get to a real experience of spirituality. Wonderful book.

What you wondered about but were afraid to ask ...
Stephen Batchelors guide is truly educational. I found his breakdown of Buddhism to be so simple and inspiring. I was concerned that Buddhism would be a complicated thing to understand. Immediately my mind was put to rest as Stephen speaks with authority and expertise. Buddhism as a belief system (it is not a religion for those who may not know) is all that I hoped it would be. I've listened through twice and plan on sharing it with other interested parties. So if you too may be wondering what this thing called Buddhism is all about but are afraid it's too complex, I highly recommend Buddhism Without Beliefs.

The Breath is ironically the problem
I want to read Batchelor's work and I started here, but I can't get past his very strange breathing pattern here. Many times, he seems to struggle for air, taking breaths between each work, or every other word. It isn't just cadence either. It is the sound of the breath. He's recording engineer (if he used one) is largely to blame for this. He is clearly positioned talking directly into the microphone (instead of slightly to the side or above) which makes it sound like he's gasping at the air right next to your ear. Now if it were at a constant cadence perhaps I could look past it, but the mix of normally-read and oddly-read finally caught up to me a couple of hours in and I put it down. The irony is that the breath is so important in meditation. I even tried to meditate on his breath and note my aversion to the pattern but I just couldn't do it. In the passages where he talks about the importance of the breath, I tried to find the meta-level understanding, but I couldn't. Perhaps I'll try again when I'm closer to enlightenment.

Talks, not the book.
This is a series of talks with partially overlapping content as the audio/book of the same title. But it was enough different and indeed more provocative that I was glad I had bought both (probably by mistake).

Mostly about Meditation
When I think of Buddhism without beliefs, I think of Buddhism without literalism. I still expect to hear an elaboration upon the eight fold path, buddhist myths, metaphysics, ethics, and so on in addition to meditation. Since the book was mostly about meditation and the self I gave it four stars - four stars due to the missing content - but no less than four stars because Stephen is very informative no matter what aspects of Buddhism he speaks upon. I’m not sorry I read the book although I was a little disappointed that the topics I looked forward to were not there.
P.S. I sincerely hope that western Buddhism does not simply become meditation. There are many socio-political ideas in Buddhism, amongst other functions of religion - the sacred, ritual, morality, tradition, etc - wouldn’t it be just like us Westerners to strip out any commitment to change and extract whatever we can devour for the self alone? Ha!

Bedtime for Bonzes
Calm and thoughtful discussion of what Buddhist practices can do in our lives. well suited to listening in bed. This is a westernized. Buddhism stripped of reincarnation, karma, or literal celestial or infernal beings. Would appeal to secular or atheist readers, though I as a Christian found it delightful. I will listen to it again.
