Product Details

Product Description

From AudioFile

In this production, recorded during a weekend retreat before a rapt audience, Buddhist nun Pema Chdrn teaches listeners about the value of patience and how to avoid biting the hook of habitual anger or defensiveness. Although shes speaking without a script, Chdrn is wonderfully articulate and never repetitive as she uses fresh, direct language. She is also a spiritual leader with a sense of humor; her intelligent voice and easy laugh make everything she has to say more inviting to consider, even when shes talking about new approaches that run counter to our human impulses for retaliation and self-protection. Her compassion, which appears to spring from deep self-knowledge, makes her reflections all the more compelling. J.C.G.

Product Description

Listen to an audio excerpt online in MP3 format—click here.

Life has a way of provoking us with traffic jams and computer malfunctions, with emotionally distant partners and crying children—and before we know it, we're upset. We feel terrible, and then we end up saying and doing things that only make matters worse. But it doesn't have to be that way, says Pema Chödrön. It is possible to relate constructively to the inevitable shocks, losses, and frustrations of life so that we can find true happiness. The key, Pema explains, is not biting the "hook" of our habitual responses. In this recorded weekend retreat, Pema draws on Buddhist teachings from The Way of the Bodhisattva to reveal how we can: stay centered in the midst of difficulty improve stressful relationships step out of the downward spiral of self-hatred awaken compassion for ourselves and others 3 CDs, 3 hours

5.0 out of 5 stars Most Insightful, Feb 28 2009
Pema Chodron, as usual, does a wonderful job discussing the subtle intricacies of anger with humor and compassion. A must read for anyone who lies awake at night rehashing angry events and possible outcomes. She not only helps but will tip your beliefs on end for a different perspective for examination. Definitely worth it for me.

As usual, Pema communicates in such a way that is easily understandable and readily relatable to our everyday life in the 20th century. Love her stuff!
