The Five Invitations, Frank Ostaseski, 2017

This book explores the question of living fully from the zen perspective of one who has worked closely with death and trauma.

  • Don’t Wait
  • Welcome Everything, Push Away Nothing
  • Bring Your Whole Self to the Experience
  • Find a Place of Rest in the Middle of Things
  • Cultivate Don’t Know Mind

It’s a long read, but worth the effort. I ought to listen to it again. But it’s heavy.

One day (like it or not) I’ll be back.

I heard about this book from the excellent episode 204 on Risk Parity Radio.

Sometimes I imagine writing something that leaves a lasting impact.

A book like this reminds me of the cost.

Nah, I’m good.
