Fearless Heart - Why Compassion is the Key to Greater Wellbeing (Jinpa Thupten)(Paperback)

A timely book on compassion and its cultivation The Dalai LamaThe Buddhist practice of mindfulness first caught on in the West when we began to understand its many practical benefits. Now Thupten Jinpa, PhD, introduces a practice with even greater life-changing power: compassion. Compassion can be a path through suffering, a key to robust health, and even an effective way to reach our goals. Yet many of us fear it, believing that if we are too compassionate towards others we will be taken advantage of, and if we are too kind to ourselves we will somehow achieve less.A Fearless Heart is based on the landmark course in Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT) that Jinpa helped create at Stanford University School of Medicine. Practical, spiritual, and immediately relevant, it draws on Buddhist and Western psychology to offer a programme of simple daily practices that will help you train your compassion muscle for a greater meaning, connection, and fulfillment. Thupten Jinpa draws on his remarkable background and range of knowledge to offer each one of us a practical toolkit for becoming a better human being Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence A Fearless Heart may prove to be one of the important books of these difficult times Richard Gere
