Awakening - Loving Kindness, Pema Chodron
Based on talks given during a one-month meditation retreat at Gampo Abbey, this book contains teachings that were intended to inspire and encourage practitioners to remain wholeheartedly awake to everything that occurs and to use the abundant material of daily life as their primary teacher and guide. The message for the retreat participants—and for the reader as well—is to be with oneself without embarrassment or harshness. This is instruction on how to love oneself and one's world.
Two completely type of books with same goal : "Love is letting go of Fear" (an Attitudinal Healing Principle) Aeeshah studied with Dr. Jerry Jampolsky of the Center for Attitudinal Healing, and created the Oakland Center for A. H. which is probably the most successful one in the country. She and her famous African Drummer Teacher Husband Kokomon combine to dynamically teach us how love can set us free. I worked at the Center, when it was in Tiburon - helping set up a Program for life-threatened Young Adults. And would travel to Oakland to take part in their Racial Healing Groups bi-weekly. That job was the best one I have ever had - those Young Adults wanted to LIVE and they were the best at being in the present I have ever been with. I took them to Yosemite, river-rafting, sailing on the Tall Ship The Californian, Monterey Aquarium, Kayaking, through the gorgeous Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias (where the famous tunnel through a tree photo originates), Stagecoach riding, on a smaller sailboat in San Francisco Bay, etc.
Pema teaches us to embrace ourselves during our meditation - tiny booklet - we will start off reading a bit from AWAKENING, and then do a 5 min. meditation before starting on BEYOND FEAR.
