“Pema Chödrön is an American Buddhist nun and one of the foremost students of Chögyam Trungpa, the renowned meditation master. She is the author of The Wisdom of No Escape, Comfortable With Uncertainty and Start Where You Are, as well as resident teacher at Gampo Abbey, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, the first Tibetan monastery in North America established for Westerners.”
I have really identified with a number of her writings, including “Go to the Places that Scare You”, (lots of places scare me), and her description of how the breakup of her marriage changed her life for the better, and how failing at her big new job opportunity changed her life for the better, in “When Things Fall Apart.”
Her original first name is Deirdre. Obviously, I keep track of these things. :)
