About this listen

Fear and guilt are two of the greatest challenges we face on the spiritual path—but there is a way to transform these painful feelings into courageous self-acceptance. Here Pema Chödrön presents the five aphorisms for developing fearlessness that were given to Machig Lapdronma, one of Tibetan Buddhism's greatest female teachers. Pema comments on these aphorisms, holds question-and-answer sessions, and leads guided meditations to help us:

• overcome shame and guilt

• remain courageous in the face of pain

• transform our relationships with difficult people

• increase our feelings of generosity and compassion

This program also includes a card with the five aphorisms and study.

Another fantastic publication from Ven Pema Chodron. This time she covers a lot of very useful techniques and practices in her usual wity manner. This is a great book Buddhist & non Buddhist alike.

Wonderful!!

time and again I revisit Pema's teaching, and her explanation of Tong Lin and working with discomfort has been very helpful for me, and hopefully for me to pass onto clients

I always love Pema

I found this to be less well-focussed than her best audiobooks. Almost uniquely for me, I found this one rather boring and it dragged.

Not one of her best.
