"Pondering difficult questions leads to powerful insights. That’s the premise of this intriguing new book by Buddhist teacher Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel. The difficult questions are ones like: What causes human suffering? Where is the self? How do we get beyond “us-and-them” ways of thinking? By inviting us to be curious about our personal experience and to trust our insights, she guides us on a spiritually enriching journey of contemplation that could last a lifetime."--Publisher's description.
