True Refuge by Tara Brach
From the award-winning author of Radical Acceptance comes a healing and helpful meditation and] a gracefully written spiritual gem on awareness, refuge, and presence (Spirituality & Practice).This is a precious gift, filled with insight, shared from heart to heart.--Thich Nhat Hanh How do you cope when facing life-threatening illness, family conflict, a faltering relationship, old trauma, obsessive thinking, overwhelming emotion, or inevitable loss? If you're like most people, chances are you react with fear and confusion, falling back on timeworn strategies: anger, self-judgment, and addictive behaviors. But there is another way. Beneath the turbulence of our thoughts and emotions exists a profound stillness, a silent awareness capable of limitless love. Tara Brach calls this awareness our true refuge, because it is available to every one of us, at any moment. Based on a fresh interpretation of the three classic Buddhist gateways to freedom--truth, love, and awareness--True Refuge shows us the way not just to heal our suffering, but also to cultivate our capacity for genuine happiness. Through spiritual teachings, guided meditations, and inspirational stories of people who discovered loving presence during times of great struggle, Brach invites us to connect more deeply with our own inner life, one another, and the world around us.
Tara Brach has been practicing and teaching meditation since 1975, as well as leading Buddhist meditation retreats in various locations across North America. She is a clinical psychologist and the author of Radical Acceptance (2003) and Real Refuge (2013), as well as the founder of the Insight Meditation Community of Washington (IMCW).
