Genuine spiritual practice, not least the Ngndro preliminaries, will not bring the kind of comfort and ease most worldly people crave. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Tibetan monks have held anti-aging secrets in the Himalayan Mountains for centuries but now share them with the Western world.

What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose?

The jhānas are eight progressive altered states of consciousness that can be identified with the aspect of the Buddha’s Eightfold Path called Right Concentration. Training in concentration leads to these states, each of which yields a deeper and subtler state of awareness than the previous one.

We live in difficult times. Life sometimes seems like a roiling and turbulent river threatening to drown us. Why, in the face of that, shouldn’t we cling for safety to the certainty of the shore—to our comfortably familiar patterns and habits? Because, Pema Chödrön teaches, that kind of...

"« Mes jeunes amis, je vous lance cet appel parce que je vous ai observés et que j’ai confiance en vous.

Mais par-dessus tout, j'espère que ce livre pourra servir de "pont" vers l'éveil, que vous suiviez une voie bouddhiste ou toute autre tradition spirituelle authentique.
