Best-selling author Pema Chodron is a leading exponent of teachings on meditation and how they apply to everyday life. She is widely known for her charming and down-to-earth interpretation of Tibetan Buddhism for Western audiences. Pema studied under the meditation master Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, and is the resident teacher at Gampo Abbey in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, the first Tibetan monastery for Westerners. The Pema Chodron: Awakening the Heart 2008 wall calendar features quotes from Ms. Chodron's book "When Things Fall Apart," which is designed to help us cultivate compassion and awareness within the challenges of daily life. These insightful quotes are paired with the beautifully evocative and meditative nature photography of Frans Lanting. Ms. Chodron has authored several best-selling books, including "Start Where You Are" and "Comfortable with Uncertainty." Sample Caption: "Looking for alternatives - better sights than we see, better sounds than we hear, a better mind than we have - keeps us from realizing that we could stand with pride in the middle of our life and realize it's a sacred mandala."

the zen of No-Days, No-Months,
By l.a.seidensticker (sonoma county, ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pema Chodron: Awakening the Heart 2006 Calendar (Calendar)
it is my heart feeling that this calendar can bring happiness to all sentient beings and also release them from (some) suffering. which is why i was interested. the fact that i have never seen the calendar, nor has it ever been delivered has some meaning i am sure. perhaps that counting days and looking ahead are more apt to lead to suffering than to free from happiness, but, really, i do not know. i hope this response will be of use and bring blessings to all.

Pema Chodron Calendar,
This review is from: Pema Chodron: Awakening the Heart 2006 Calendar (Calendar)
I would love to review this calendar for you and for myself. I actually never received this calendar beacause you didn't have it in stock. I am quite surprised that you are asking me to review this because there have been several communications back and forth about the fact that you still have it on your website shows me that I won't be the only disappointed customer.
