"Perhaps what makes Pema's message resonate so strongly with people, no matter what their religion or spiritual path, is its universality. Each of us has experienced heartache; how we interact with that feeling, Pema says, can create the possibility of a more joyful life." -- O, The Oprah Magazine   "As one of Pema Chödrön'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, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and activist, "Perhaps what makes Pema's message resonate so strongly with people, no matter what their religion or spiritual path, is its universality.

    A rocky start after I had to NUDGE the Seller into checking on my order after MORE than a week with NOTHING happening... But Seller communication was GOOD and the item showed up, well packaged, within the delivery window. Item was well priced, and they had a series that I STRUGGLED to find elsewhere, in NEW condition. I would recommend this seller if you can't find it elsewhere, that's the best I can give them.

    5 stars Great seller—made it right when USPS didn’t. The item was marked as delivered on May 27th to a “reception area,” even though I live in a single-family home. Clearly a USPS error. I reached out to the seller, who responded quickly and assured me the book was on the way. It finally arrived safely on June 7th. Not the seller’s fault, and I appreciate their professionalism and communication throughout. Would buy from them again.

  • A challenging, thought-provoking read

    Half the time I don't know what they're talking about, the language and concepts are so foreign to my "Western" way of thinking. That's not a criticism, just a limitation of my world-view up to now. This book challenges many of the foundational ways I have been brought up to think and believe, which is at times very painful (and I bought the book because I was already in pain because things had fallen apart in my life). There are chapters that make no sense at all, perhaps because my mind and soul are not yet ready for what they have to offer. There are other chapters whose words pierce deeply and whose truths resonate, which is why I have not put this book down despite it being a difficult read. I feel there is much insight to gain and wisdom to learn if I will allow myself to not 'shut ...
