Drawing on the wisdom of Buddhist teachings, illustrative stories and the transformative power of meditation, Tara guides us in healing the shame and fear that bind our hearts. In the West, most of us have suffered the fear of not being 'good enough', feeling insecure about our appearance, our sexuality, our intelligence, our spiritual progress or - often most importantly - being worthy of love. When these feelings of insufficiency or self-aversion are strong, we fear abandonment and rejection.

Finding one's calling is not just about finding something we can do - it is about finding what we can't not do. "Let your life speak" is a time-honored Quaker admonition to live one's life as witness to the deepest truths one knows. But as Parker Palmer explains, those words can also mean "listen to your life, and let it tell you what your truth is."

Publisher's Summary
Teachings to Cultivate the Practice of Faith
We tend to think of faith as a commodity you either have or you don't. But in many of the world's wisdom traditions, faith isn't something you possess; it's something you do. "Faith is a willingness to take the next step, to see the unknown as an adventure, to launch a journey," teaches Sharon Salzberg. Now this beloved meditation teacher and author shares her unique understanding of faith, distinguishing it from belief and dogma, to help you cultivate this profound force in your life.
In this four-hour program, Salzberg dispels the negative concepts that label faith as either "blind" or "ignorant" and reveals something much deeper: an intelligence and common sense rooted in your deepest experience. With discerning wisdom, she invites you to explore:
- The crucial first step in the faith journey: embracing impermanence - the ever-changing nature of the world
- The surprising relationship between doubt and faith
- How to move forward when you feel lost in the mire of resignation and despair
- Faith as a refuge for even our hardest times
- The ingredients of true faith: love and respect for ourselves and others
Faith is the ability to offer your heart to the truth of what is happening, the present expression of possibility, and the conduit connecting you to a bigger reality. With Faith, you gain a powerful tool for cultivating the peace of mind and ease to carry you through any situation.

Great content; Difficult to listen to narration
Sharon Salzberg speaks in a very monotone voice -- which works very well for her guided meditations but made listening to this book very tedious and, ultimately, made it listenable for me. The content of the book is wonderful, inspiring, and thought-provoking, but I would definitely recommend the actual book over the audio book.

How we relate to life
One of the best books I've ever consumed on the topic of spirituality, and I've consumed a growing number of them. Sharon is brilliant, clear, and incisive in this book, getting right to the essence of the concepts she lays out, most of all faith.
Some get caught up in the discussion of Buddhism as if that suddenly makes it unrelatable for anybody that doesn't identify as Buddhist, but that's absolutely not true, and not really the point of anything Sharon is teaching in this book. Whatever Buddhist perspectives are offered here are simply takes on the profound truths she lays bare.
Sharon has been a fixture at Ram Dass's retreats for quite some time. These retreats are fundamentally not Buddhist retreats, and yet somehow it does not matter at all, and Sharon's teachings fit right into the Bhakti fabric of those events. Much the same, the ancient and eternal wisdom she transmits in this book can be absorbed by anybody open enough to move past, as she brilliantly weaves into one discussion, our own treasured shiny straw through which we see the vast truth of existence.
