When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chodron
The advice Chdrn offers is radically different from other self-help prescriptions on the market. This book could serve you for a lifetime. Natural Health How can we go on living when things fall apartwhen we are overcome by pain, fear, and anxiety? Pema Chdrns answer to that question contains some spectacularly good news: there is a fundamental happiness readily available to each one of us, no matter how difficult things seem to be. To find it, according to traditional Buddhist teaching, we must learn to stop running from suffering and instead actually learn to approach itfearlessly, compassionately and with curiosity. This radical practice enables us to use all situations, even very painful ones, as means for discovering the truth and love that are utterly indestructible. Pema Chdrn is an American Buddhist nun in the lineage of Chgyam Trungpa. She is resident teacher at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia, and is the author of nine books and many audiobooks including The Places That Scare Youand Dont Bite the Hook.
Ani Pema Ch?dr?n was born Deirdre Blomfield-Brown in 1936, in New York City. She attended Miss Porter's School in Connecticut and graduated from the University of California at Berkeley. She taught as an elementary school teacher for many years in both New Mexico and California. Pema has two children and three grandchildren. While in her mid-thirties, Ani Pema traveled to the French Alps and encountered Lama Chime Rinpoche, with whom she studied for several years. She became a novice nun in 1974 while studying with Lama Chime in London. His Holiness the Sixteenth Karmapa came to Scotland at that time, and Ani Pema received her ordination from him.
