What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Jeff Eisenberg is one of the most refreshing voices in Buddhist teaching. His emphasis on the practical resonated with me since I first encountered his first book, Fighting Buddha, and in this latest volume he continues to teach us how to translate practice into workable action. Jeff empowers us to be our own bodyguards in a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual sense, and for this offering I am grateful. Be prepared for some major internal shifts upon picking up this clever read!” * JAMIE MARICH, Ph.D., author of Dancing Mindfulness *“Drawing from his experiential knowledge of being a Buddhist practitioner, professional bodyguard, and martial artist, Jeff Eisenberg delivers wisdom on personal protection of body, mind, and spirit.” * SHAWN ZAPPO, surf instructor, meditation teacher, and writer *“Another gem, or should I say ‘Dharma Jewel’ from Mr. Eisenberg! The Buddha’s teachings from the world of protection and safety walk side by side in this wonderfully written manual. Practical and always entertaining. Even if you have never set foot inside a Buddhist temple, or have been a bodyguard, you will learn a helluvalot from this book! I highly recommend it.” * DAVID “SHINZEN” NELSON, Ph.D., author of Black Belt Healing *
