The book emphasizes that the fears we often experience are largely self-created and can be unmade by recognizing our inherent fearlessness. Ferguson, a faculty member at Naropa University and a senior teacher in the Shambhala International Buddhist community, draws on his extensive background in meditation and Buddhist philosophy to guide readers in utilizing natural bravery as a foundation for effective living and compassionate interaction with others. The book is intended for those seeking personal growth and spiritual awakening through understanding and transforming fear into a source of courage and compassion.$7Generated by AI. 606 $aBuddhism$7Generated by AI 606 $aFear$7Generated by AI 615 0$aBuddhism 615 0$aFear 676 $a294.3/5696 676 $a294.35696 686 $aREL007050$aREL007000$2bisacsh 700 $aFerguson$b Gaylon$01247681 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162846603321 996 $aNatural Bravery$92892179 997 $aUNINA
