Practical Buddhist wisdom and mindful methods for finding the silver lining in all circumstances--from a remarkable new voice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.

Chakung Jigme Wangdrak gives concrete advice on how to reorient your thinking when faced with the challenges, mess, and chaos that inevitably occur in life. By embracing pain and suffering, you can learn to see their roots, begin to work with them, and eventually let them go. This will create joy and ease, allowing you to fully savor happiness.

In clear language, Jigme Wangdrak conveys the steps, stages, and categories of mental exercises and methods that everyone--from beginner to experienced practitioner and non-Buddhists--can use to train their mind toward happiness:
  • Take happiness and suffering as the path
  • Cultivate courage, gratitude, and compassion
  • Practice contentment (not complacency)
  • Recognize outer and inner obstacles when faced with challenging situations
  • Dispel self-grasping to reduce suffering
  • Develop patience and tolerance

A true Buddhist master and unique lineage holder, Jigme Wangdrak offers a roadmap to freedom with teachings that will benefit your spiritual practice and daily life--he shows you how to love your life as it already is!

CHAKUNG JIGME WANGDRAK RINPOCHE was born in the Golok region of eastern Tibet as the fourth descendant of the nineteenth-century Buddhist master Dudjom Lingpa. At the age of fifteen, Jigme Wangdrak was recognized as the reincarnation of Rigzin Longsal Nyingpo. He studied Buddhist philosophy at Larung Gar Monastery with H. H. Khenchen Jigme Phuntsok. Jigme Wangdrak also received teachings from the well-known female teacher Dakini Kunzang Wangmo. In Tibet, Jigme Wangdrak published many revelatory writings from Dudjom Lingpa and an original woodblock edition of the Nyingma Gyudbum. Since 2011, he has lived in the San Francisco Bay Area and teaches to several Buddhist communities. He is spiritual director of the Abhaya Fellowship.
