How can we go on living "when things fall apart" – when we are overcome by pain, fear, and anxiety? Pema Chodron’s answer to that question contains some spectacularly good news: there is a fundamental happiness readily available to each one of us, no matter how difficult things seem to be. To find it, according to traditional Buddhist teaching, we must learn to stop running from suffering and instead actually learn to approach it – fearlessly, compassionately, and with curiosity. This radical practice enables us to use all situations, even very painful ones, as means for discovering the truth and love that are utterly indestructible.

    Clearly a book to read when things fall apart, which is exactly my case, at this point of my life. Sometimes when everything seems to be going wrong, in the wrong direction and you are so tired that you don't even feel like crying, this book suggests you essentially to refrain, look and listen to your life. Don't care about the illusion, life, death, do tonglen and exercise prajina, and maybe you will get into Dharma and leave Samsara behind.
    That is for me the toughest lesson, I am trying hard and must confess I struggle.

    Is this helpful?
