Traveler's Guide to Uncertain Times (2009)

In uncertain and unsettling times, it is easy to forget that our feelings of fear and loss are nothing new. The world and its inhabitants have experienced tumultuous times before, yet when dislodged by misfortune we often submit to nearsightedness and panic. The financial earthquake and its aftershocks have shaken us deeply. How do we anchor ourselves, step back, and put this all in perspective? One proven remedy involves looking back and extracting lessons from those who have endured these sorts of things before. Uncertainty, pessimism, hopelessness and material loss are not unique to our current crisis. By drawing on ancient wisdom presented by the best and brightest spiritual leaders of our time, A Traveler's Guide to Uncertain Times provides people with a time tested and practical approach to navigating the dark highways of our current circumstances.
