We have the same arguments repeatedly with our parents, partners, \u003cbr\u003e and children despite wanting to stop. Often by the time we realize we're stuck, we no longer know how to get unstuck. The secret to finding freedom is to understand karma \u003cbr\u003e and free will. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Why is it useful to understand karma and free will correctly? If you misunderstand karma, you're more likely to get stuck. And if you misunderstand free will, you're more likely to stay stuck. \u003cbr\u003e Joining Western psychological science and traditional Buddhism, experimental psychologist and Zen monk Ven. Dr. Douglas Cheolsoeng Gentile describes how our minds can be simultaneously our greatest weakness and greatest asset. We are controlled by both external forces and internal habits of mind, while simultaneously believing ourselves to be 'free'. This conundrum can be solved by seeing where our biases begin, how our natural ability to learn traps us, and how we unintentionally undermine the progress we intend to make. This book can help you find freedom from negative habits, relationship patterns, and feelings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e You don't need to be Buddhist to be able to use these ideas to be happier, just as you don't need to be a mathematician to be able to add. You just need to have an accurate understanding of the processes to make them work for you. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ven Dr Douglas Cheolsoeng Gentile\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Random House Sea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.57h x 5.35w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789815017137","brand":"Penguin Random House Sea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42712814157961,"sku":"9789815017137","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_a19bb826-e90f-4b59-bd97-a4fc8b29ff73.jpg?v=1719600222","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/finding-the-freedom-to-get-unstuck-and-be-happier-9789815017137","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
