After the Buddha's enlightenment, he reflected upon his powerful spiritual awakening and uttered the phrase "Patisotagami," which means "against the stream." Rebelling against the beliefs of his time, he taught a new way of being present in the world that was countercultural and revolutionary. In Against the Stream, Noah Levine also challenges the reader to rebel by training the mind in the art of wisdom and compassion. It is only through an engaged understanding of Buddhist practice that the spiritual revolution will take root.

Levine weaves the ancient story and teachings of the Buddha with contemporary examples of spiritual transformation - including his own story of how Buddhist meditation saved him from a life of addiction and crime. With guided meditations, reflections and exercises, Levine offers a guide to personal transformation for anyone seeking to go "against the stream."

Noah Levine is the author of the national bestseller Dharma Punx. A Buddhist teacher trained by Jack Kornfield, he lectures and teaches meditation retreats nationally. Noah is the director and co-founder of the Mind Body Awareness Project, a non-profit organization that serves incarcerated populations. He has studied with many great Buddhist teachers, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Thich Nhat Hanh, Ram Dass, and Sharon Salzberg. Noah holds a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology.

"A manual that is free of jargon and introduces readers to the most basic concepts of Buddhism: escape suffering, live simply, and treat yourself and others with respect and love ... an excellent, concise resource for those who have found other works too daunting."--School Library Journal--Mandala magazine

Great for busy feet

My five-year-old daughter loves these Skechers slip-ins—and she is not easy on her shoes! You can see in the photo, she’s already put plenty of miles on them. They’ve been through the washing machine at least twice and still look great—the bright colors are a big hit with her and they hold up well in the wash. One of the elastic bands on top did come loose, but I was able to fix it quickly with a dab of superglue. She slips them on and off all by herself, which is perfect as we’re still learning to tie laces. All in all, a great purchase for the price—especially since kids grow so fast and put their shoes through a lot!
