Awakening Compassion

For more than 800 years, Tibetan Buddhists have used the practice of lojong or "mind training" to transform difficulties into knowledge. In this text, Pema Chodron shows you how painful emotions can be used as stepping stones to wisdom, compassion and fearlessness. You learn how to make friends with the painful parts of your life, and how to use your natural courage and honesty to transform even the most difficult situations. With its help you too will be able to bring compassion into your everyday life.
