While the added material may overwhelm a first-time student of this daunting text, here's some suggestions for how to get the most out of this tape. Read the book first, study its commentary, and then you'll benefit more from hearing it in this eloquent presentation. No book, ...             Don't Bite the Hook: Finding Freedom from Anger, Resentment, and Other Destructive Emotions10 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2007 Philosophy delivered in common sense style Pema Chodron explains the Buddhist philosophy in this as well as her many other CDs in a clear, relevant manner with just the right touch of humor relating to the human condition. She has mastered the philosophy, yet her modesty lets the listener know that she has been where we listeners often are. Easier to absorb than reading, for me, and a lot more fun. A great way to clear the mind at ...             The Places That Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times43 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2008 Calming, inspiring reminder... I love listening to this tape. I put it on and start it over again when it is done. I find it totally inspiring to listen to the writing of this wise Buddhist monk. My only criticism is that the woman who reads the book (beautiful voice, by the way). She pronounces the word "strength" omitting the 'g' sound. This was horribly annoying to me. I grew up pronouncing the 'g' and it sounds ...             This Moment Is the Perfect Teacher: Ten Buddhist Teachings on Cultivating Inner Strength and Compassion2 reviews Shambhala Audio, 2008 PEMA CHODRON READER HERE PEMA CHODRON WAS THE DOOR I TRAVELED THROUGH TO GET INTO BUDDHISM. I BELIEVE I NOW OWN ALL THAT SHE HAS RECORDED ON CD'S AND AUDIOBOOKS.

I say that not because I agree with its essential philosophy (which is problematic in some of its over-simplicity), a predisposition that far too often accounts for why critics recommend or do not recommend a work of art, but because it is the embodiment of one of the oldest ...             Comfortable with Uncertainty: 108 Teachings on Cultivating Fearlessness and Compassion14 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2008 A breeath of fresh air This book is quite enlightening.

As a psychotherapist with 30 years experience, who works with couples, I consider this book to be one of the best for therapists of all levels of training. My colleagues and I agree that the best way to use this book is to savor its contents, digesting the lessons slowly, perhaps even reading sections to clients. Welwood is a gifted writer,centered in his psychospiritual approach without ...             Making Love Last: How to Sustain Intimacy and Nurture Genuine Connection David Richo Shambhala Audio, 2008 Relationships often begin with openness and heartfelt connection, but over time this connection can be lost among miscommunication, a lack of mutual support, and a loss of affection.

She teaches in the tradition of the Shambhala Warrior, a path laid out by ...             The Mindful Leader: Ten Principles for Bringing Out the Best in Ourselves and Others2 reviews Shambhala Audio, 2007 This book will save your life... or at least make you a great leader! Reading Michael Carroll's book and attending his weekend retreat earlier this year turned around my attitude at the office, prepared me well for several looming crises at work, and nearly saved my life. His book Mindful Leadership is essential for anyone trying to lead successfully in today's world of information overload, anti-rationalism, and blind decision-making. It is equally helpful for a ...             A Brief History of Everything100 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala Audio, 2008 amazed at wilber's ability to turn the dense lucid wilber is worth all the hype: he is a true pioneer of the emerging phase of planetary evolution. this book is a great primer. here he masterfully weaves multiple threads from hugely diverse sources; from science to mysticism, from history to philosophy. the result is stunningly precise thoughts yet infused with moments of poetical flares, and a myriad of insights! at ...             Practicing Peace in Times of War: A Buddhist Perspective13 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2006 A little classic of straight-talking compassion Choderon's books keep getting shorter and clearer. Here she gives a little classic of straight-talking compassion. In a world obsessed with finding security she speaks of living with "positive insecurity". In a simple, honest way she demonstrates how to culivate our own peace step by step, and why it matters so much: "If we arn't training inch by inch, one moment at a time, in overcoming our ...             Teresa of Avila: The Book of My Life9 reviews Mirabai Starr Shambhala Audio, 2007 A Spiritual Gem for the 21st Century Mirabai Starr's review makes Teresa of Avila come alive for the twenty-first century spiritual seeker.

In a very clear and simple, yet profound manner, Dzigar Kongtrul shares his wisdom illuminating some very complex principles of the practice of dharma.

In his subjective view of the world -"with half closed eyes and somewhat closed ears, to see and hear the form and voice of being" he arrived at an inspiring insight about life: supreme meaning of being can consist only in the fact that is,not that it is not or is no longer; nature, the mystery of love, the psyche, life, human beings, a state of lively contemplation ...             The Way of the Bodhisattva8 reviews Shantideva Shambhala Audio, 2008 How to be a Bodhisattva This masterpiece has moved me deeply and set my feet on the path of a Bodhisattva.

This is one of my favorite books by Pema Chodron. It not only does a very good job of describing the essence of Buddhism, but it goes beyond that in making Tibetan Buddhism more understandable and relevant to a Western audience without deveating from the tradition. In short, it contains the heart of the teachings of the Vajrayana. A nice complimentary book if you are interested in going deeper ...             Ruling Your World: Ancient Strategies for Modern Life21 reviews Sakyong Mipham Shambhala Audio, 2007 The Lineage of Shambhala From Father to Son The son of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Sakyong Mipham who is the lineage holder for the Shambhala world his father revealed, is able to freshly express this royal path.

This is a short book that is very easy to read and reflect upon. The chapters are short and ...             Start Where You Are: A Guide to Compassionate Living29 reviews Pema Chodron Shambhala Audio, 2008 Beautiful book I truly enjoyed this book as it awakened a sense of compassion for myself and others, with insight and humor Pema Chodron guided me to a state of joy, and well being.
