"In No Time to Lose Pema Chodron reveals the traditional Buddhist teachings that guide her own life: those of The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhichar-yavatara), a text written by the eighth-century sage Shantideva. This treasured Buddhist work is remarkably relevant for our times, describing the steps we can take to cultivate courage, caring and joy - the keys to healing ourselves and our troubled world. Chodron offers as a highly practical and engaging commentary on this essential text explaining how its profound teachings can be applied to our daily lives."--Jacket.
