"This Lousy World" - Pema Chodron

She communicates with such an open and down-to-earth language and voice. A wonderful speaker and teacher.

Wisdom with a bit of humor... I appreciate that. :)

Sat Nam, (reverent greetings)

great video - there is nothing wrong there is nothing right - it is our mind that decides this - change your thought and you will change your perception !

peace and love to all !

I love listening to Pema Chodron -- she's very inspiring, very wise and yet very human.

Thank you for posting this! I love her.

She's so adorable.

So good to find a spiritual leader who makes sense.

Love her books, they gave me a constructive way to meditate, even though the practice was inherent in my upbringing, it took an addiction and a good friend with a book of hers to understand what it really meant. Nearly five years now and I have never felt a need to go back on any of it.

There's is no happiness without sorrow. How would you even know you're happy? How would you know you like something without disliking something else? The world is NOT torment and suffering for without suffering, bliss would just fade away and happiness will not ever be.

This was the perfect video to go with my blog today! (TheSkinnyOnline). I needed something to go with a lesson of patience and learning to give up control. Thank you!!
