    Connecting with Natural Time

    Written by Lama Surya Das

    Narrated by Justine Willis Toms

    About this audiobook

    Is time speeding up? It seems so as we fill our lives with so many “labor saving” devices. The 21st century mantra could very well be: There isn’t enough time. Here we explore how we can free ourselves from the tyranny of time, as we step out of the fast lane on to the off ramp, in order to enjoy a saner and more balanced relationship with time.
