A path for parents - Sara Burns

Even as a mother protects with her life
Her child, her only child,
So with a boundless heart
Should one cherish all living beings.

-The Buddha

Amid the delights and difficulties of parenting lie opportunities for real spiritual insights. Themes of this book include: the koan of loving and letting go, going beyond oneself to care for others, and developing a boundless heart.

Within the daily challenges that being a parent presents, Sara Burns, mother and Buddhist practitioner, points out how caring for our children can become a profound spiritual journey.
