“The Buddha’s teachings are not a philosophy or a religion; they are a call to action and invitation to revolution.” Noah Levine, author of the national bestseller Dharma Punx and Against the Stream , is the leader of the youth movement for a new American Buddhism. In Heart of the Revolution , he offers a set of reflections, tools, and teachings to help readers unlock their own sense of empathy and compassion. Lama Surya Das, author of Awakening the Buddha Within , declares Levins to be "in the fore among Young Buddhas of America, a rebel with both a good cause and the noble heart and spiritual awareness to prove it,” saying, “I highly recommend this book to those who want to join us on this joyful path of mindfulness and awakening."

Buddha was a revolutionary. His practice was subversive; his message, seditious. His enlightened point of view went against the norms of his day—in his words, "against the stream." His teachings changed the world, and now they can change you too. Presenting the basics of Buddhism with personal anecdotes, exercises, and guided meditations, bestselling author Noah Levine guides the reader along a spiritual path that has led to freedom from suffering and has saved lives for 2,500 years. Levine should know. Buddhist meditation saved him from a life of addiction and crime. He went on to counsel and teach countless others the Buddhist way to freedom, and here he shares those life-changing lessons with you. Read and awaken to a new and better life.

This is the story of a young man and a generation of angry youths who rebelled against their parents and the unfulfilled promise of the sixties. As with many self-destructive kids, Levine's search for meaning led him first to punk rock, drugs, drinking, and dissatisfaction. But the search didn't end there. Having clearly seen the uselessness of drugs and violence, he looked for positive ways to channel his rebellion against what he saw as the lies of society. Fueled by his anger at so much injustice and suffering, Levine now uses that energy and the practice of Buddhism to awaken his natural wisdom and compassion. He finds his most authentic expression in connecting the seemingly opposed worlds of punk and Buddhism. Ultimately, this is a story about maturing, and how a hostile and lost generation is finally finding its footing.--From publisher description

Der Buddha berührt nicht nur die Erde, sondern hebt auch die linke Faust Ein Buch, dass Freiheit zeigt, ein Autor, der Freiheit lebt. Buddha war ein Revolutionär! Seine Lehre war subversiv und aufrührerisch. Seine erleuchtete Sichtweise wandte sich gegen die Normen seiner Gesellschaft in seinen Worten gegen den Strom. Noah Levine präsentiert in diesem Buch eine Einführung in diese Lehre und reichert diese mit persönlichen Erlebnissen, Übungen und geführten Meditationen an, die vom Leiden in die Freiheit führen. Noah sollte es wissen, denn die Meditation rettete ihn aus Kriminalität und Sucht und machte ihn zu einem Sprachrohr für eine neue Generation von Buddhisten, deren Meditation zwischen Punk Rock, Tattoo-Shop und sozialem Engagement stattfindet.

Die Geschichte von Noah Levine ist zugleich die Geschichte seiner desillusionierten Generation, der Kinder der Hippies. Noah hatte keine intakte Familie, und seinen Lebensmut maskierte er mit Wut und Hass. Sein Kampf um Sinn versank in Gewalt, Alkohol und Drogen. Mit 17 Jahren in der Psychiatrie, am Rande des Suizids, beginnt er, sich seiner inneren Katastrophe zu stellen. Er fängt zu meditieren an und findet ganz allmählich den Weg zu jener Freiheit, die er so lange vergeblich gesucht hat.
