Unconditional Bliss: Finding Happiness in the Face of Hardship

We can be happy in spite of hardship, heartbreak, or a job we hate. Pie-in-the-sky? This down-to-earth guy shows us how. When personal tragedy struck, Howard Cushnir already knew the Zen practice of staying in the moment. But he wasn’t prepared for the gift of grace he received. One day, all but lost, he was suddenly suffused with a complete sense of well-being—not a passing experience, but one available from then on. Paying close attention to the changes in his own inner states, Howard soon realized that feeling blissful is a choice we can always make, regardless of our circumstances.
