Compassion is often seen as a distant, altruistic ideal cultivated by saints, or as an unrealistic response of the naively kind-hearted. But by seeing compassion in this way, we lose out on experiencing the transformative potential of one of our most neglected inner resources.

Clinical psychologist and Tibetan Buddhist practitioner Dr. Lorne Ladner rescues compassion from this marginalized view, showing how its practical application in our life can be a powerful force in achieving happiness. Ladner provides a clear explanation of what healthy compassion is and why it is so essential to our lives. Combining the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism and Western psychology, The Lost Art of Compassion presents clear, effective practices for cultivating compassion in daily living.

Lorne Ladner, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Washington DC, and an adjunct faculty member in the counseling program at Argosy University. He began studying Buddhist meditation 15 years ago and is a longtime student of Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Dr. Ladner is currently Center Director of the Guhyasamaja Buddhist Center in Northern Virginia, where he regularly teaches classes, runs workshops, and leads meditation retreats.

"A helpful, kindhearted, articulate teaching of the way of compassion. Buddhism and Western psychology meet here wisely and beautifully."

- Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart--Annie Dillard, author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

Privacy at ease!
Color: Black, Color: Black
This is exactly what we needed for our large house and bedroom sharing with the kids. People need privacy and this can be tucked away when it isn't being used. Perfect!

Easy to put together
Color: Black, Color: Black
I was pleasantly surprised by how well this room divider is designed. The engineering behind it is actually pretty thoughtful. All the pieces line up exactly where you expect them to, and the connectors make assembly almost foolproof. I had it put together in just a few minutes without any frustration or extra tools. The fabric panels look clean and modern, and the whole unit is surprisingly lightweight. That makes it easy to move around if you want to reconfigure a room or create a quick private space. Even though it’s light, it still feels stable once it’s assembled. Overall it’s a simple product done right: easy to assemble, easy to move, and it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I’d definitely buy it again.

Light weight and large privacy screen
Color: Black, Color: Black
The privacy screen is light weight and of great quality. The screen can block sight and also is easy to set up. It screen is sturdy and stable. It is a cheap solution for separating paces in rooms. The privacy screen is of black color and good good in many places. It can be folded when not used and does not take much space for storage.

Great divider!

This was really easy to set up and really works to decide the room. The material is dark enough that you have your privacy. Good for the price
