If the Buddha Dated

A Handbook for Finding Love on a Spiritual Path

By: Charlotte Kasl

Narrated by: Renée Raudman

Charlotte Kasl, best-selling author, spiritual practitioner, and therapist, brings a compassionate understanding to the anxiety and uneasiness of new love, and helps listeners discover their potential for vibrant human connection based on awareness, kindness, and honesty. She approaches the dating process as a means for awakening, reminding us that when we live by spiritual rules, we bring curiosity and a light heart to the romantic journey.

Filled with quotations from Zen, Sufi, and other wisdom traditions, and informed by the experiences of people from all walks of life, here is a relationship book that will appeal to audiences looking for more than a Venus-meets-Mars solution to the complex affairs of the heart.

Soul & Psyche Revelations

It exceeded my expectations! I listened intently from inside my house to inside my car. It's message enchanted my mind, body and soul. It brought all my deep reflections together and them them a voice. I finally feel validated. I get it now. Be gone chatter as the Buddha voice is now here. I will out loud banish my fears and request of the Universe all of my hearts deepest desires. I finally know who I am, what I want and how to have it. Thank you Charlotte for your wisdom and for sharing the Buddha consciousness in dating & love and to the voice who brought it to life in this audio. I am eternally grateful. Namaste, Rosie S.

Beautiful in every way

Was very good book for those trying to date in a digital world. Really brings you back to the present. Voice was beautiful as well

Inspiring and comforting for those who are dating.

I’m 66 (going on 40, it seems) and I’ve been out in the dating world for a while. Two year+ relationships faded - and I continue the journey. Friend say that I set the bar too high…but after listening to this I’m setting it even higher. I’m doing the online dating thing but do need to get out there more in the real world. (Now that the pandemic is behind us.)
The book does need updating - it’s dated (unavoidable pun!) as it doesn’t mention online dating (which was very new in 1999). And, until Kasl shared that she was bisexual, I thought it was too focused on just heterosexual relationships. The narrator is warm and friendly and clear.

Extremely helpful when I didn’t know I needed it.

Speaks to your soul about things you didn’t know you needed to hear or want to hear.

Enlightening
