Pema Chdrna’s Teaching about the Bodhisattva Path A Bodhisattva is one who seeks liberation from suffering not only for himself, but for all beings. If you were a Bodhisattva, how would you react in the face of chaos and hardship? Is it possible to find peace in the middle of a storm on a Bodhisattva’s mind? which can bring us all closer to the ideal of a bodhisattva. In the eyes of his fellow Indian scholars, Shantideva appeared to be lazy and disinterested in his pursuits, and this caused him strong resentment. So they invited the young “bum” to give a prestigious speech — an honor reserved only for the most accomplished Buddhist masters — hoping to humiliate him and force him to leave school. Instead, he brought the eternal jewel known today as the Bodhisattva path. Paradoxically, the key to true liberation, he taught, is taming the mind. Like a wild elephant, a distracted mind heightens emotions. But if the mind is trained to be steady and open, no matter what comes to you, you will remain firm in the immediacy of your experience. In the mind of the Bodhisattva, Pema Chdrn guides you through an entirely new series of practices inspired by Shantideva to help you “bind” your thoughts and emotions — not as a limiting force, but as a means to restore yourself to the freedom of the present moment. Experience the spaciousness available at every moment: “if we approach the wildness of our mind, like the Whisperer of a horse, using gentleness, compassion and kindness, we return to our natural state of expansiveness, which is always available to us,” says Pema Chdrn

More information on lifestyle:

Lifestyle is the interests, opinions, behavior, and behavioral orientations of an individual, group, or culture.
The term was coined by the Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler with the meaning “the basic character of a person established in early childhood.”
For example, in his 1929 book, The Miss R. a broader understanding of lifestyle as a “way or lifestyle” has been documented since 1961.
A way of life is a set of defining intangible or material factors.
Material factors are directly related to demographic variables, i.e., the demographic profile of an individual,
whereas intangible factors relate to the psychological aspects of an individual, such as personal values, preferences and perspectives.

The rural environment has a different way of life compared to the urban metropolis.
Location is important even within the city.
The nature of the area a person lives in influences the range of lifestyles available
this person, because of the differences between the level of well-being of different areas and the proximity to the natural and cultural environment.
For example, areas near the sea can often have a surf culture or lifestyle.
