As the category of womens spirituality continues to grow, The Buddhas Wife offers to a broad audience for the first time the intimate and profound story of Princess Yasodhara, the wife Buddha left behind, and her alternative journey to spiritual enlightenment.What do we know of the wife and child the Buddha abandoned when he went off to seek his enlightenment? The Buddhas Wife brings this rarely told story to the forefront, offering a nuanced portrait of this compelling and compassionate figure while also examining the practical applications her teachings have on our modern lives.Princess Yasodharas journey is one full of loss, grief, and suffering. But through it, she discovered her own enlightenment within the deep bonds of community and ordinary relationships. While traditional Buddhism emphasizes solitary meditation, Yasodharas experience speaks of The Path of Right Relation, of achieving awareness not alone but together with others.The Buddhas Wife is comprised of two parts: the first part is a historical narrative of Yasodharas fascinating story, and the second part is a howto readers companion filled with life lessons, practices, and reflections for the modern seeker. Her story provides a relational path, one which speaks directly to our everyday lives and offers a doorway to profound spiritual maturation, awakening, and wisdom beyond the solitary, heroic journey.
