With her characteristic clarity and wisdom, she expands our understanding of each of these ennobling qualities and how they interweave with one another as they open the door to the highest freedom. This book is a dharma treasure.” —Joseph Goldstein, author of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening
