Thinly disguised Buddhist propaganda. Wholeheartedly endorse. But the original Buddhist texts, for instance the Visuddhimagga, are more complete and direct, though harder to read.
Edit: Actually, using the skills here to bootstrap to something like Buddhism+CBT+rationality+etc is probably the better bet.
Upvoted.
What's CBT?
Cognitive behavioural therapy, a way to change your thinking that is one of the few psychotherapies with some evidence of actually working. Apply with caution, though.
Other possible meanings of CBT include Computer-Based Training, Cock and Ball Torture, Compulsory Basic Training, and Complete Binary Tree.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy was not the first thing I thought of when I saw the term, so thanks.
Thanks!
