/Ann Tashi Slater’s new book, TRAVELING IN BARDO: THE ART OF LIVING IN AN IMPERMANENT WORLD (Hachette, Sept. 9), is now available for pre-order!
"A rich and freewheeling meditation on life, death, and impermanence." - Publishers Weekly
Life is perpetually, endlessly filled with change, from new jobs and loves to unfamiliar places and faces. And entwined in that change is loss of what was, what is, or what could have been. In this shifting landscape, Ann Tashi Slater invites us to embrace impermanence in a powerful way, rooted in the Tibetan Buddhist concept of bardo, or the between-states that we experience in life and death.
Interweaving timely explorations of bardo—in relation to marriage and friendship, parents and children, and work and creativity—with vivid stories of her Tibetan ancestors and the Buddhist teachings on the fleeting nature of existence, Slater illuminates how to find meaning and happiness in a world where the only thing we can be sure of is change.
“Brilliant and compassionate, philosophical and practical, Ann Tashi Slater…gives us a map (just when we most need one!) of how to not only survive but thrive in times of great upheaval and uncertainty. Both gemstone and touchstone, this book is a gift.” -- Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author
