Money and Mindfulness by Kulananda and Dominic Houlder

Full Title: Money and Mindfulness - The Buddhist Path of Abundance

Rating:3/5

Writing Style: Authentic and engaging writing style.

Summary: Buddhist teachers write on prosperity and include many real life examples of Buddhist practitioners with their handling of money.

Comments: I picked up this book because I thought the focus would be on money and not Buddhist prosperity. Different than money. Prosperity as enlightenment is worth more than money, but I felt misled by the book title. A bait and switch approach.

So if you would like to read a book on “The Buddhist Path of Abundance” including how active Bhuddists cope with money, then this book is for you.

If you are looking to this book to follow Buddhist practices to increase your money, the book will probably assist you, but it is not the main goal. Or perhaps the target audience are folks attempting to leave the monastery to  city/money life.
