Overview
How do we make sense of our lives when our world seems to be falling apart?
Ā
In this beautifully written guide, scholar and teacher Stephen Cope shows that crises donāt have to derail us from our purposeāthey can actually help us to find our purpose and step forward as our best selves.
Ā
The Dharma in Difficult Times extends the message of Copeās best-loved book, The Great Work of Your Life, which gave readers a roadmap for the journey to their true calling. As in Great Work, Cope here takes the ancient yogic text the Bhagavad Gitaāthe epic narrative of the warrior Arjunaās odyssey of self-discoveryāas a model for the readerās journey. Then he builds on that foundation using the stories and teachings of famous figures, as well as stories of ordinary people and his own rich personal experience. Along the way, we find striking examples for finding meaning and purpose in our lives:
Ā
Ā ā¢ Ā Gandhi shows how to tap our spiritual resources and listen for our inner voice
Ā ā¢ Ā Sojourner Truth and Henry David Thoreau inspire us to seek out the unmistakable signs of dharma in the midst of chaos
Ā ā¢ Ā Marian Anderson and Ruby Sales shed light on dharmaās mystic power and how we learn to trust in it
Ā ā¢ Ā And more
Ā
In the spirit of Pema Chƶdrƶnās When Things Fall Apart, this book is required reading when you find yourself forging a path through crisisāor seeking a way through your darkest times to your truest self.
