Elizabeth Gilbert | "A Merciful, Loving Presence"

In this interview, Tara Brach speaks with bestselling author and teacher Elizabeth Gilbert on the meaning and importance of mercy. According to Elizabeth, “Mercy is a quality that says, ‘I’m going to stand with you in our shared humanity, in the shared dilemma of how impossible it is to be a human being, and recognize from one demented, battered, confused soul to another that it’s hard for all of us here.'”

Session highlights:

Elizabeth Gilbert

Elizabeth Gilbert is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of nine books of fiction and nonfiction, including Eat, Pray Love; Big Magic; The Signature of All Things; and her latest, City of Girls, which is a rollicking tale of the New York City theater world in the 1940s. Elizabeth is a world traveler and has long been a spiritual seeker. She likes to “learn in public” as a way of sharing her life with her readers, whom she sees as intimate family and friends. Her TED Talks on creativity have been watched by millions of viewers, and Time magazine has named her one of the world’s most influential people.
