Book Reviews of No Time to Lose: A Timely Guide to the Way of the Bodhisattva
Book Review: Not so Pithy
Summary: 3 Stars
I have always liked Pema Chodron's short easy-to-read essays.
This book is fatter than any of her books. The chapters are
uncharacteristically lengthy. I have not read the whole book,
but I will probably spot read it. An interesting feature is the
poems included in each chapter. They are surprisingly different
to Pema's work. I'm not sure if I like this feature or not. I
am a Pema Chodron fan, however, and her books have always given
me solace in this difficult world. "No Time to Lose" is worth
reading -- the title, at least, is like a gentle whip to our
flaccid brains.
Summary of No Time to Lose: A Timely Guide to the Way of the Bodhisattva
Over the years, Pema Ch?dr?n's books have offered readers an exciting new way of living: developing fearlessness, generosity, and compassion in all aspects of their lives. In No Time to Lose Pema invites readers to venture further along the path of the "bodhisattva warrior," explaining in depth how we can awaken the softness of our hearts and develop true confidence amid the challenges of daily living.Pema reveals the traditional Buddhist teachings that guide her own life: those of The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicharyavatara), a text written by the eighth-century sage Shantideva. This treasured Buddhist work is remarkably relevant for our times, describing the steps we can take to cultivate courage, caring, and joy—the keys to healing ourselves and our troubled world. Pema offers us a highly practical and engaging commentary on this essential text, explaining how its profound teachings can be applied to our daily lives.
