Tara Brach: Sheltering in Love, Part VIII - Finding Freedom in the Midst of Failure

Tara Brach: Sheltering in Love, Part VIII - Finding Freedom in the Midst of Failure [streamed live 05-13-2020]

Everyone faces personal failure, and it’s an extremely raw and painful feeling. If we have the courage to stay with the feelings, failure can become a portal to the realization of who we are beyond the imperfect separate self. This talk calls on Samuel Beckett’s wonderful quote (referenced by Pema Chodron) “Fail, Fail again, Fail better” and offers guidance on finding freedom as we move through some of our most difficult moments.
