Change Buddhism

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.

Divided into three parts like a traditional Buddhist text, Joyful Wisdom identifies the sources of our unease, describes methods of meditation that enable us to transform our experience into deeper insight, and applies these methods to common emotional, physical, and personal problems. The result is a work at once wise, anecdotal, funny, informed, and graced with the author's irresistible charm.

This life-changing book, now available in audio, is drawn from a series of trainings conducted by Tibetan meditation master His Eminence Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche and compiled, edited, and narrated by his student, Lama Shenpen Drolma.

It's the secret of being fully alive.

This is a call to a revolution of heart. In Tibetan Buddhism, it is taught that one of the most essential qualities of enlightenment is tsewa, a form of warm energy and openness of heart. It is the warmth we express and receive through empathy with others, especially those closest to us.

And through its practice, we can actually heal our fractured world.

What is Zen? What are its doctrinal principles? What is its purpose? These are just some of the questions this audiobook will answer. Zen is a methodology of the spirit, conscience and mind that can be adopted by anyone, anywhere and at any time. Zen is a practice that needs to be experienced, not understood. Perhaps for this reason for us Westerners it may seem difficult, but it's actually simpler than you might think.

In a world where nothing lasts forever, how do we live? Life is perpetually, endlessly filled with change: new jobs and new loves, unfamiliar places and faces. And woven into that change is loss: loss of what was or is or what could have been.
