BUDDHA STANDARD TIME Awakening to the Infinite Possibilities of Now

Breathe. Smile. Relax. You are about to travel with author Lama Surya Das and narrator Peter Berkrot to Buddha Standard Time. It’s not a time zone or a place but a frame of mind, a journey from the distracted, unfocused, and hectic reality that Das calls profane time to a space unencumbered by the momentary and trivial that he calls sacred time. Berkrot’s narration is clear, well paced, and as easy to follow as this primer on Buddhist meditation and thoughtful presence. His simple yet compelling style of delivery goes a long way to complement the message of the book. So, in the words of Das: Breathe. Smile. Relax. And listen . . . you have the time.
