Buddhist Enneagram: Nine Paths to Create a Deeper Relationship with Yourself and Others By Susan Piver

Susan Piver connects Buddhist teachings with the nine personality patterns of the Enneagram. Her approach asks how these patterns influence relationships, suffering and the wish to develop a more compassionate understanding of oneself and others.

This is a contemporary integration of two frameworks, not a claim that the Enneagram originated as an ancient Buddhist teaching. The types function as prompts for inquiry rather than fixed identities or psychological diagnoses.
