A wise and beautiful collection of reflections that provide a daily reminder of what's true, what's real, and what matters. --Daniel Gilbert, Harvard University, author of Stumbling on Happiness We all want to deepen our understanding of life and to expand our insight and compassion. Thubten Chodron reminds us that practice isn't just what we do on the meditation cushion. Our mindfulness must extend to whatever is going on in our minds throughout the day.
