Rent This Moment Is the Perfect Teacher: Ten Buddhist Teachings on Cultivating Inner Strength and Compassion

Synopsis

For centuries Tibetan Buddhists have employed pithy, penetrating slogans to awaken wisdom and compassion in the midst of daily life. Here, Pema presents the heart of this transformative spiritual practice (called lojong in Tibetan). She offers a selection of slogans such as “Drive all blames into one” and “Be grateful to everyone,” and with her insightful commentary Pema explains how we can apply them to the difficult moments of our lives. This Moment Is the Perfect Teacher also features a guided meditation on tonglen practice (“taking in and sending out”), which anyone can undertake to awaken compassion for themselves and others.
