The Undefeated Mind (Fall 2012)

Though our ability to control what happens to us in life may be limited, our ability to establish a life state that enables us to surmount the suffering life brings us is not. In The Undefeated Mind, physician Alex Lickerman distills the wisdom Nichiren Buddhism considers essential for the creation of resilience into nine core principles—principles supported by new scientific research that suggests resilience isn’t something with which only a fortunate few of us have been born, but rather something we can all take action to develop, whether we have any interest in practicing Buddhism or not.
