About the book:
In The Wisdom of No Escape, bestselling author Pema Ch?n shows us the profound value of our situation of ‘no exit' from the ups and downs of life.
This book is about saying yes to life in all its manifestations - about making friends with ourselves and our world and embracing the potent mixture of joy, suffering, brilliance, and confusion that characterizes the human experience.
It urges us to wake up wholeheartedly to everything and to use the abundant, richly textured fabric of everyday life as our primary spiritual teacher and guide.
