About this product

Product Information

There is a fundamental happiness right within our reach, yet we usually miss it--ironically, while caught up in attempts to escape pain and suffering. Pema Chdrn's radical and compassionate advice for what to do when things fall apart in our lives goes against the grain of our usual habits and expectations and confronts us with traditional Buddhist wisdom. There is only one approach to suffering that is of lasting benefit, Pema teaches, and that approach involves moving toward painful situations to the best of our ability with friendliness and curiosity, relaxing into the essential groundlessness of our entire situation. It is there, in the midst of chaos, that we can discover the truth and love that are indestructible. Included in the book are:    *  Ways to use painful emotions to cultivate wisdom, compassion, and courage    *  Ways to communicate that lead to openness and true intimacy with others    *  Practices for reversing our negative habitual patterns    *  Methods for working with chaotic situations    *  Ways to cultivate compassionate, energetic social action

  • Stop running away

    Pema Chodron is a Buddhist nun in the Tibetan Shambala tradition. She is American born and has been studying Buddhism for over 30 years. The book talks about choosing to stay in the moment, whatever that moment presents. Sot clinging to the pleasant and not running from the unpleasant. It's a radical idea. I love it and will reread it often.

  • Very helpful!

    I read this book four years ago when I was going through a difficult time. It offered advice that I could actually put into immediate use and it was very helpful. This latest purchase is a gift for a friend.

  • False review of condition

    This book was listed as in good condition It is not in good condition. It has writing and highlighting of at least 1/2 the pages I am very disappointed with this product and the false appraisal of the books condition. Definitely won't buy anything from these folks again!
