Pema Ch¶dr¶n reveals the vast potential for happiness, wisdom and courage even in the most painful circumstances. Pema Ch¶dr¶n teaches that there is a fundamental opportunity for happiness right within our reach, yet we usually miss it: ironically, while we are caught up in attempt to escape pain and suffering. This accessible guide to compassionate living shows us how we can use painful emotions to cultivate wisdom, compassion and courage, ways of communication that lead to openness and true intimacy with others, practices for reversing our negative habitual patterns, methods for working with chaotic situations and ways to cultivate compassionate, energetic social action Recently profiled in Oprah’s O magazine, Pema Ch¶dr¶n is a spiritual teacher for anyone: whether they have a spiritual path or not. Her heartfelt advice and wisdom (developed in her 2 years of practice as a Tibetan Buddhist nun as well as her years previously as a normal ‘housewife and mother’) give her a wide appeal. This advice strikes just the right note, offering us comfort and challenging us to live deeply and contribute to creating a more loving world.
