"Beautifully written, Unbinding inspires the reader to let go, to
let be."--Sharon Salzberg, author of Real Love
"Unbinding is a rare accomplishment. In this book, Kathleen Dowling
Singh has explored one of the most profound aspects of the Buddha's
teachings--The Law of Dependent Origination. She brings to life the
patterns of conditioning that limit us when not understood and free
us as we more fully realize how they operate in our lives. With
clarity and grace, she invites the reader into its world of
transforming wisdom. Unbinding is a great contribution to our
deepening Dharma understanding."--Joseph Goldstein, author of
Mindfulness
"Unbinding tells the simple and most profound story of the journey
to freedom, from being bound by the ego to living in grace,
unbound. Kathleen Singh shows us the many ways we imprison
ourselves, through habits, attachments, cravings, while she gives
us the teachings that can free us, open us to awe and gratitude.
Here is ancient mystical wisdom told in the language of today,
showing how every moment we are limitless, present in truth. Listen
to this heart song that calls us home."--Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee PhD,
Sufi teacher and author of Spiritual Ecology
"'Everything is a gift, but nothing's free, ' wrote Huston Smith,
the historian of religions. In Unbinding, Kathleen Dowling Singh
elaborates on similar truths that deal with our efforts to
understand our true nature. Do not think this book is a
labyrinthine exercise shrouded in mysticism. It is utterly
practical, because our future on this planet likely depends on our
right understanding of ego, self, and essence."--Larry Dossey, MD,
author of One Mind
"I always feel at home in Kathleen Dowling Singh's books because
she writes with such gentle clarity. This book is no exception.
Here, she "unbinds" some of the Buddha's more complex teachings,
such as dependent arising, making them accessible to Buddhists and
non-Buddhists alike. With exquisite prose, she explains how the
delusion that our "self" is the whole of reality leads to needless
suffering. She offers a doorway out--a practical path to freedom
and unbounded love. I recommend Unbinding most highly."--Toni
Bernhard, author of How to Be Sick
