"You will find...if you are willing...that you carry not just the questions about life but the answers inside you. You will find that profound serenity, which is understanding and acceptance, is all around you: in your home, at your place of employment, on the way to work, in the shower, in your garden and even in a time of conflict and hardship"

"Serenity lives as a life force in all things, in a flower, rock, in the very atoms that make matter. It dwells in time, space and in all dimensions."

"Serenity dwells within those whom you love and those whom you hate. In the presence of serenity, your soul finds the path to a clearer light, and all things that seem elusive or deceptive are reduced to the shining clarity of gentleness."

"Life is a fleeting and sometimes difficult search for meaning, serenity and understanding. Go with serenity in the discovery of your dreams. Live the life you have had the courage to dream of..."

Excerpt from The Tibetan Art of Serenity
by Christopher Hansard

An Apology and Heartfelt Thanks to Oriah Mountaindreamer

After corresponding recently with Ms Mountaindreamer, and having apologised to her directly, I would like to apologise again to both her and her publishers, HarperCollins, for not taking enough care as a fellow author and writer to find the source of the piece that so inspired me, as an Invocation in my book, The Tibetan Art of Serenity. I also wish to give a very heartfelt thanks to her and to let you know, my reading public. That the piece has been removed from the next edition of The Tibetan Art of Serenity.

Faithfully

Christopher Hansard
