Synopsis When the Buddha became enlightened, he stopped going on dates, and with good reason. For most us, the mating game occupies time that might be spent pursuing our true bliss, and we fall into traps of fear and desire, sabotaging any attempt at forging a lasting, rewarding relationship. This book intends to guide us off the dysfunctional merry-go-round with these five steps towards harmoniously entwining spiritual and romantic pursuits: preparation, awakening desire (to decipher what you are truly looking for), entering the "sacred fire" of romantic attachment, keeping loyal to your self, and learning to "go deeper" into new realms of romantic intimacy. You will also learns to make peace with parents (in order to avoid repeating their mistakes), to practice couples meditation, and to accept the impermanence of any relationship, i.e. to conquer co-dependence and "let go," as we ultimately must towards all attachments. IF THE BUDDHA DATED relays all this and a wealth of other valuable wisdom simply and eloquently, with a welcome dash of humor besides.
