The Wisdom of No Escape and the Path of Loving-kindness by Pema Chodron

The Wisdom of No Escape and the Path of Loving-kindness by Pema Chodron

This book is about saying yes to life in all its manifestations - embracing the potent mixture of joy, suffering, brilliance and confusion that characterizes the human experience. Pema Chodron shows us the profound value of our situation of "no escape" from the ups and downs of life. Pema Chodron is a spiritual teacher for anyone - whether they have a spiritual path or not. Her heartfelt advice and wisdom (developed in her 20 years of practice as a Tibetan Buddhist nun as well as her years previously as a normal "housewife and mother") should give her a wide appeal.

'As one of Pema Chodron's grateful students, I have been learning the most pressing and necessary lesson of all: how to keep opening wider my own heart' Alice Walker 'Pema's deep experience and her fresh way of looking at things are like mountain water -- clear and deep.' Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart and After the Ecstasy, the Laundry
