A Dog's Quest to be a Buddhist: The Enlightened Spaniel

Product Information

Assisted by a host of sentient beings both human and otherwise our spaniels traverse the countryside in a journey filled with ancient wisdom, humour, and compassion for all living beings. I love the concept that there is a 99% probability that Half-sister is the reincarnation of Right Nuisance and Amara had been reincarnated several times with the past wisdoms of his time with Indian gurus and the Dalia Lama! As they progress along the road to enlightenment, they not only transform their own perception of life, but also the lives of those around them.
