Buddhist wisdom for everyday problems rooted in Buddhist philosophy and meditation, 6 Myths We Live By shows us how to uncover our misperceptions and leads us on a path to self-development.
The truth is you probably believe all sorts of myths, but you don't even know it. To escape any hardship, any suffering or discomfort, we all believe myths about how the world works and how we live in that world. In 6 Myths We Live By, therapist and longtime Buddhist practitioner Karuna Cayton guides us through six common myths that may give us comfort, but actually only perpetuate our problems:- the myth of reality; the myth of identity; the myth of permanence; the myth of randomness; the myth of happiness; the myth of only living once.
