The Wheel of Life is an ancient symbol of spiritual significance. It is a graphic representation of the Buddhist understanding of life, a mirror held up to the human heart. Within its depths we see the forces that limit and bind us. We see the happiness and the suffering we create for ourselves. We see the chain of ingrained habits that make us who we are. But, looking deeper still, we see the way to freedom. This volume offers an introduction to a Buddhist view of the human predicament and how to transcend it.
