In this book, Lama Zopa Rinpoche teaches on one of his favorite topics--compassion. He tells us that compassion for others is the best way to overcome any obstacles we encounter, in our Dharma practice, or occupation and life itself, and the best medicine for treating any illness we experience.

As ever, his teachings are clear, relevant, humorous and direct--a perfect guide to making our lives meaningful.
