Drawn from traditional Buddhist wisdom, Pema Chödrön’s When Things Fall Apart reveals her radical and compassionate advice for what to do when things fall apart in our lives.
There is only one approach to suffering that is of lasting benefit, Pema teaches, and that approach involves moving toward painful situations with friendliness and curiosity, relaxing into the essential groundlessness of our entire situation.
It is there, in the midst of chaos, that we can discover indestructible truth and love.

The universe sent me to this video. I can't tell you how much it means to me to hear the words of something I've felt since my spiritual awakening. I believe nothing happens in this world by accident. This is the moment, this is the time. Thank you for this ❤️

I’ve truly felt this lately, an intense empathy for suffering, that hit me suddenly. Not that I didn’t empathize before, but now it’s as though I feel it myself. So it’s ironic that I came across her book “welcoming the unwelcome”. Myself I struggle dealing with my own pain. But I had the realization one day, that we are all in so much pain that we sometimes fail to realize others around us are also.

One day , a boy met " Buddha" and said to Buddha..." Buddha, I want to be like you ...please tell me how ".................. "Buddha" said " Well , if you want to be me .....you will see white line appear on the floor ...and things will appear on the side of the line ...collect it and bring it to me ...the more things you bring to me , the greater chance you be me "....... So one day , the boy wanted to be Buddha and saw white line and things appear on the floor .....................he is so excited and follow the white line and collect things and carry it on his back ........ as he travel , his desire to be Buddha increase , his love to be Buddha increase , his greed for more things increase , his fear of losing things that he collected and carried on his back increase .... his ego of to be Buddha increase ... and as he collected more and more items and it became more and more heavy .........and he is getting more and more suffer .............at one point , as he turn his head ...he was shocked and saw , white line are everywhere ......and there are countless of item on the floor ...and there are no one beside him ... he is always alone ...no one going to take away the things he collected on his back ......... he recognize he is like someone watching a movie acted and directed by him .............his desire to travel decrease , his love to be Buddha decrease , his fear of losing the things he carry decrease , his greed / ego of holding on his will decrease ........and his will to move on decrease .......and as the hold on his will and the things on his back decreases ........ all things slowly , gradually and naturally drop from his back ... and as more and more things drops from his back , he is more and more at ease ........and finally there is no more things on his back ...there is no more holds on his will ...his will to travel decreases ...he is moving slower and slower ....he finally stop as he no longer with any will to travel.....and he is arrived ... he is free ...he is peace ....he is Buddha ....... The words of Buddha is only about YOU not a guide of who you should be . . All Buddhist Teacher are using Buddha's words as a guide for you to be " someone ".... leading you to be " there "....but you are always " here " ...is you that suffer struggling to be " there ".... all Buddhist Teacher are like someone giving you muddy water to wash your clothing and let you expect it to be cleaned while they relaxing drinking cappuccino at Starbucks and let you pay the bill. In the current mind of me all Buddhist Teacher are robber that robbed Buddha's words....a parasite that feeding on Buddha words for fame and recognition and a TERRORIST OF MANKIND for transforming perhaps the greatest discovery of mankind into a factor for human to suffer ... I am not a spam or a troll and is here with my identity card name and a face on my profile.....I cordially invites all Buddhist Teacher to debate with me as to challenge this mind of me

I live in a place where people do not harm their dogs, and it was painful to hear the section of a man beating his dog. Disappointed that such imagery was used in her book. How aggressive, unkind, and unnecessary. What poison ☠️

Suffering is a part of life, we have to accept that. The author was not saying a woman and child begging on the street, or a man beating his dog is a positive but it is a chance for us to say we know there is suffering, yet it does not mean we look away.

What's with an umlaut over the o when they don't exist in English, and to have two of them is just pretentious. Maybe Pema is just not genuine after all.

I remember first listening to this after my house and community fell apart literally. I was in an empty room, barren. One of my roommates and good friends was kicked out by us for not being able to pay rent; his room was empty and barren. My ex-girlfriend had packed up all her stuff and left. The house was dead silent after a major conflict. I was almost killed, targeted as the main cause of problems through actions I never committed. I remember listening to this in the dead quiet after all the noise had stopped, and I was completely at peace. I had to escape that house and move back home 1,000 miles away. It was a very lucky experience to be confronted with the suffering of others so directly, and come out alive. Thank you for this reading, it's wonderfully made.
