A leading Buddhist teacher revisits Shantideva's The Way of the Bodhisattva to offer an introductory guide on cultivating patience and opening your heart to difficult circumstances

In the Buddhist tradition, "patience" is our mind's ability to work positively with anything that bothers us—a vast spectrum of particulars that all boil down to not getting what we want or getting what we don't want. Those who have mastered patience have learned to welcome all challenging situations, people, and emotions as opportunities to open their hearts rather than close them.

In fluid, accessible language, Dzigar Kongtrul expands on teachings by the ancient sage Shantideva that contain numerous powerful and surprising methods for preventing our minds from becoming consumed by what bothers us—especially in anger. The result of practicing patience is a state of mind where we can feel at home in every situation and be fully available to love and care for others. Patience is the lifeblood of a peaceful heart.
