* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. As you read this summary, you will learn how Buddhist thought helps to endure negative emotions and even use them to become a better person. You will also learn : what to do when you are in trouble; to acquire a new vision of life; the benefits of meditation in times of trial; how to fight illusions; how to achieve peace. To be alive is to be subject to the vagaries of events: imagining that you can control everything is therefore an illusion that can prove harmful. This is why Buddhism considers that everything is impermanence, and that the best way to be happy is not to run after the satisfaction of desires or to run away from difficulties. On the contrary, it is by facing the chaos of the world with courage and wisdom that you will discover who you really are. *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!Heart Advice for Difficult Times Pema Chödrön. encourage ourselves to take a leap,to step out into that ambiguity.

Ever since the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001, concerns about violence, terror, and terrorism have dominated our contemporary lifestyle. Is religion a part of the problem or the solution? Can philosophical reflection help us to understand terror, violence, and insecurity? Can comparative philosophy and religion help us to overcome ethnocentrism, dangerous stereotypes, and think about new approaches to violence and terror? The authors of these timely studies provide brilliant insight into violence and terror as formulated by Plato, Aristotle, the Buddha, Confucius, Af-Farabi, Nietzsche, Dewey, Ueshiba, Gandhi, and Abdul Ghaffar Khan. Their diverse voices consider the threat of violence from various standpoints, taking religious and philosophical discourse as the starting point of the approach. This is a hopeful volume that offers new creative insights for the future. These studies allow us to analyze the real problems of violence, terror, and insecurity in much broader and deeper ways, and they present new approaches that offer possibilities for greater nonviolence, security, and peace.
