I'm in trouble. One stupid bet with a teammate and my starting spot on the Wolves Football Team is on the line. I need a romance overhaul and I need it fast.

How to Lose Yourself presents lively, accessible, and expert new translations of ancient Buddhist writings about the central, unique, and powerful Buddhist teaching of "no-self."
