Lis­ten to Paul Bazely read­ing from the spo­ken book Strength in the Storm, by Eknath Easwaran.

The fol­low­ing excerpt is from chap­ter 1.

“Steadi­ness of mind is one of the most prac­ti­cal skills. Noth­ing is more vital than learn­ing to face tur­moil with courage, con­fi­dence, and com­pas­sion. For­tu­nately, we already pos­sess these capac­i­ties, but we need a calm mind to draw on them. That is the prac­ti­cal impor­tance of a calm mind.”

  • A few times a week we’ll post some­thing here to show­case the time­less wis­dom of Eknath Easwaran.

    We’ll also post items about the Blue Moun­tain Cen­ter of Med­i­ta­tion – new book announce­ments, retreat sched­ules and updates, news from our fel­low­ship groups.

    And we’ll post items from some of Easwaran’s many friends around the world who have brought his prac­ti­cal wis­dom into their lives.

    We hope you’ll join the con­ver­sa­tion as well.
