Instant bestseller: Buddhist teacher Pema Chödrön shares
life-changing practices for living with wisdom, confidence, and
integrity amidst confusing situations and uncertain times
We
live in difficult times. Life so often seems like a turbulent river
threatening to drown us and destroy our world. Why, then, shouldn’t we
cling to the certainty of the comfortable—to our deep-seated habits and
familiar ways? Because, Pema Chödrön teaches, that kind of fear-based
clinging keeps us from the infinitely more powerful experience of being
fully alive. The Buddhist teachings she presents here—known as the
“Three Commitments”—provide a treasure trove of wisdom for learning to
step right into the unknown, to completely and fearlessly embrace the
groundlessness of being human, for people of all faiths. When we do, we
begin to see not only how much better it feels to live an openhearted
life, but we find that we begin to naturally and more effectively reach
out to help and heal all those around us.
