An abridged edition of The wisdom of no escape (Shambhala Publications, 1991); first published in 1996.
Loving-kindness -- Satisfaction -- Finding our own true nature -- Precision, gentleness, and letting go -- The wisdom of no escape -- Joy -- Taking a bigger perspective -- No such thing as a true story -- Weather and the four noble truths -- Not too tight, not too loose -- Renunciation -- Sending and taking -- Taking refuge -- The four reminders.
We often look far and wide for guidance to become better people. Chödrön believes we should focus on learning how to see the events of our lives as the material for learning to love ourselves-- and our world. She believes that by living in our skin fearlessly, without aggression, harshness or shame, we can come alive in our inherent human kindness.
Contents: Wisdom of no escape.
