Just start: How my girlfriend explained Buddhism to me

The Buddhist nun Santacitta Bhikkhuni, born and raised in Austria, is a strong female voice within Buddhism in the West. She is able to convey Buddhist content in a very fresh, direct and contemporary way, including topics such as women's empowerment, gender justice and the ecological crisis. This book is the result of conversations between her and a long-time friend - a journalist: The result is a unique weave of inspiring thoughts, personal experiences and Buddhist teachings and sheds light on what living Buddhism means and can achieve - individually and socially. In the face of all the uncertainties and insecurities of human existence, she succeeds in conveying confidence and awakening trust in spiritual practice and life as a whole.
