Cincinnati ,United States - April 1, 2022 /PressCable/ —
In Law of Reflection: The Memoirs of a Transformative and Healing Journey Through Tibetan Buddhism, Marc Moss tells his story of how he rose out of a web of chaos to find personal tranquility through spiritual renewal.
Moss portions his life into sections of the novel written to correspond with the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism: Dukkha, or suffering; Samodhaya, or the cause of suffering; Nirodha, or the cessation of suffering; and Marga, the path to the cessation of suffering.
Beginning as a gay teenager in a small town in Indiana, Moss reveals the troubling circumstances of his youth. Informed by living in fear due to his sexuality, traumatic relationships, and brutal mental health struggles, he sincerely opens up about his spirals of depression.
But through his studies, reflections, travels, and friendships, Moss immerses himself in Buddhism’s universal truth of the Dharma, emerging with a more complete understanding of his path to healing and self-actualization. By the book’s conclusion, seeing him prevail over his turmoil with the knowledge of where his journey began becomes all the more powerful.
Moss prioritizes an honest, humanistic approach over a purely intellectual explanation of Buddhism and its potential benefits. Through his narrative, he offers one possible roadmap to self-acceptance for anyone who might feel powerless in the face of life’s seemingly endless capacity for anguish.
With a framework of his personal experience with the Dharma, Moss recounts his story with the intention that readers will find what works to enhance happiness and minimize suffering in their own lives.
While the book does delve into some specifics of Buddhist teachings and practices, Moss makes it clear that these ideas are not exclusively for experts in Buddhism — they are for everyone.
From veterans interested in a refresher of their fundamentals, to novices just starting their journeys, to anyone simply curious about one man’s path to enlightenment, Moss’ memoir provides an engaging read.
Moss offers Buddhism as an option for members of the LGBTQ+ community who feel isolated from traditional western religions. While Law of Reflection focuses on Buddhism, it provides an avenue for anybody to gain insight on improving their quality of life, whatever their previous experiences with spirituality might be.
