Pema Chodron

Tibetan Buddhists have long used lojong, or "mind training," to transform difficulties into insights. Buddhist nun Pema Chodron, a renowned lojong teacher and practitioner, shows the listener in this 7-hour, 6-CD set how to use painful emotions as stepping stones to wisdom, compassion and fearlessness.

Buddhist nun and resident teacher at Gampo Abbey, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, teaches in this audio CD set that the definition of an enlightened being is one who is completely fearless. With humor and guided meditations, Pema Chodron outlines a timeless path from fear to fearlessness.

For those overcome by anxiety, pain and fear, Buddhist nun Pema Chodron says in this bestselling abridged audio CD set of her book by the same name that there is fundamental happiness readily available, no matter how difficult things seem to be. According to Buddhist teaching, she says, one needs to learn not to run from suffering and to actually learn to approach it fearlessly, compassionately, and with curiosity.
