Finding True Refuge in This Living Dying...

TARA BRACH
About this episode

Finding True Refuge in This Living Dying World  - Part 2 - Last week, I began a two-part series inspired by Pema Chödron's newest offering, How We Live is How We Die. It's a powerful book that I highly recommend! 

One of our deepest inquiries is how to find happiness and peace in an inherently insecure world. In these talks, we'll explore the ways we habitually try to control our lives, and the practices of presence that allow us to cherish this living world and find freedom in the midst of change and loss.
