<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In her long-awaited debut, a beloved master teacher shows us how to move from the "constant squeeze" of suffering to a direct experience of enoughness.</b> <p/>The magnanimous heart is a heart of balance and buoyancy, of generosity and inclusivity. It allows us to approach each moment exactly as it is, in a fresh and alive way free from agendas and "shoulds," receiving all that arises. It has the capacity to hold anything and everything, transforming even vulnerability and grief into workable assets. <p/> In writing evocative of Pema Chödrön's, Narayan Helen Liebenson teaches us exactly how it is possible to turn the sting and anguish of loss into a path of liberation--the deep joy, peace, and happiness within our own hearts that exists beyond mere circumstances. <p/> The Magnanimous Heart shows us how to skillfully respond to painful human emotions through the art of meditative inquiry, or questioning wisely. Readers will learn how to live from a compassionate love that guides our lives and warms whatever it shines upon. <p/> With metta and compassion as companions and allies, we discover how our own magnanimous hearts can gently allow the inner knots to untie themselves.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Narayan Helen Liebenson is a guiding teacher at the Cambridge Insight Meditation Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and has been teaching there since its inception in 1985. Narayan is also a guiding teacher at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts, where she offers residential retreats.

She was a student of the late Chan master Sheng Yen for over ten years.
