The Four Noble Truths of Love

Buddhist Wisdom for Modern Relationships

By: Susan Piver

Narrated by: Susan Piver

To apply a Buddhist viewpoint to relationships is eye-opening. It points to a radically different worldview, one that runs counter to the spirit of much of the conventional advice we receive.

Broken hearts, resentment, affairs, divorce. Why is it so hard to make relationships work? New York Times best-selling author and mindfulness expert Susan Piver applies classic Buddhist wisdom to modern romance, including her own long-term relationship, to show ancient philosophies have timeless - and unexpected - wisdom on how to love.

The Four Noble Truths of Love will challenge the expectations you have about dating, sex, and romance, liberating you from the habits, traumas, and expectations that have been holding back your relationships. This mindful approach toward love will help you open your heart fearlessly, deepen communications with your partner, increase your compassion and resilience, and lead you toward a path of true happiness.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain: expansive, real love for yourself and others.

“One of the most exquisitely wise - and comforting - relationship books I've ever read. The Four Noble Truths of Love is a lighthouse for the beautiful, murky mess of intimacy; one of those keepers that you wear out and gift to every friend and say, ‘This will help.’ This book has permanent residency on my bedside table so I can keep coming back for Susan’s compassionate reminders: that we are inherently good and our capacity to love is indestructible.” (Danielle LaPorte, author of The Desire Map and White Hot Truth)

Very helpful and out of the box insight

I am on the wrong end of a recent affair and have been searching out every way possible of moving forward with my life and my wife. This book has given me a tremendous amount of previously unheard insight, advice and perspective. At the very most and very least, it has given me hope that my wife and I can work through our troubles.

There is knowledge everywhere you look…

This book has broadened my perspective by not only imparting new viewpoints but also by serving as a reminder of my own identity. It offers various perspectives and provokes contemplation, not just in romantic relationships but in all types of connections, including the one we have with ourselves. It's an effortless and enjoyable book to read, requiring no prior knowledge. I express gratitude to Susan for generously sharing her insights with us.

Fabulous content- technical errors

Brilliant listen ... narration bloopers included. Stumbles or coughs included in this version then narrator repeats sections. Doesn’t happen often enough to affect the quality.

Such a Loving Guide to All Relationships!

Enlightening, raw, human, honest. You'll come back to this book on a regular basis for a nudge back to loving Self and Others. Pertinent even, or especially, after 34 years of marriage!

Excellent Book about Love and Life

I liked the way the author explained the four noble truths of love, three poisons to avoid, 4 Brahmaviharas, and 6 paramitas to practice. I recommend this book to everyone especially lovers, partners, friends, and teenage or adult children. 5 star rating is for the breadth and beauty of delivery as read by the author. Thank you for writing this book.
