Author: Paul Gilbert; Choden.Imprint: New Harbinger Publications. “Altruistic love should ideally be a permanent state of mind, an unconditional wish that all beings may find happiness and the causes of happiness. It embraces all beings without exception. When altruistic love encounters suffering, it becomes compassion, which springs from the same benevolence, but more specifically wishes that beings may be free from suffering and from the many possible causes of suffering. Paul Gilbert and Choden’s Mindful Compassion is a precious and most welcome contribution toward bringing about a more compassionate society.”— Matthieu Ricard, Buddhist monk and author of Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life’s Most Important SkillAbout The Author.
