I have to admit that I am a bit of a fan of Pema Chodron, having heard her audiobooks "How to Meditate", "Pure Meditation" and "True Happiness". I like her down-to-earth, yet wise and compassionate style. This is the first book I have read of Pema's and it is beautiful. It took me a while to get into it, and I enjoyed the last 7 chapters the most especially the "Sending & Taking" chapter on Tonglen practice, the chapter called "Not preferring Samsara to Nirvana" which spoke a little about ego involvement, and finally the chapter "Sticking to One Boat" which has inspired me to buy Trungpa's "Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism". 10 years before coming across Pema's beautiful teachings I got involved with A.Cohen's ego-inflated,neurotic nonsense ...

Pema has done it again! She manages to write about the spiritual path and buddhist teachings with such simplicity and earthiness. This is not detached in any way. A moving book that teaches us all about ourselves and that nothing is forbidden, we are simply human beings moving through our life together. If you are on the path to discover who you really are then this is a book you should read.

I bought this book after seeing a video on peme chodron.I find her writing style to be easily absorbed, although some ideas presented in the book are a little thought provoking,that said this book will open up your heart and your mind to a more compassionate way of thinking and acting.

This inspiring gem of a book (and audiobook) has helped me to negotiate the perils of borderline living. This is an easy to read and understand summary of Pema Chodron's writings. Any Tibetan Buddhist concepts are simply and briefly explained. Recommended for anyone who tends to be highly stressed, finds life difficult to cope with, and over-reactive. After reading this you may, like me, want to read her other books.

brilliant! i rate all of pema chodrons audio lectures and would say this one might be the best.
the boddhisattvas way of life by shantidava is interpreted in a way that is clear for westerners. it has cleared up some points that before hearing this i could not understand or accept.
unlike some audio books it kept me gripped as if i were at the lecture myself.
if you want to learn about causes of anger and how to overcome it this is very helpful even if you are new to buddhism
