Summary

The Buddhist practice of lojong is a way of letting go of attachment to both 'positive' and 'negative' emotions. Practicing lojong leads to profound insight and compassion, unbounded by our habitual reactions. The authors provide a set of tools that you can apply in daily life to gradually relieve your own suffering and extend that relief to everyone you encounter. -- adapted from back cover
