What did the Dalai Lama say to the hot dog vendor? "Make me one with everything!" It's a familiar joke, muses Lama Surya Das, and one that holds a profound truth: that in addition to inner peace, meditation is a path for all-inclusive connection. In Make Me One with Everything, he invites us to experience this through the art of inter-meditation and other original practices that allow us to see through the illusion of separation. "If you've ever felt 'at one' with something-your beloved or your child, a forest trail or a favorite song-then you've experienced inter-meditation," explains Lama Surya Das. Based on Tibetan Buddhism's core insights into the inherent essence of who we are, these teachings of shared spirituality offer both new and experienced meditators a better way to live-not just on the meditation cushion or the yoga mat, but in every moment of their lives.

We're all given the same twenty-four hours a day. We can spend our time feeling hurried and harried, overwhelmed by chores and demands, distracted and burned out . . . or we can awaken to Buddha Standard Time, the realm of timelessness where every choice, every action, and every breath can be one of renewal and infinite possibilities. Buddha Standard Time shares one of the great realizations of Buddhism, an insight that anyone can learn to apply. The minutes and hours of our days do not simply march from future to present to past. Rather, each moment is intersected by a fourth dimension. By learning to live in this dimension—Buddha Standard Time—we reduce the amount of stress in our lives and find greater focus, fulfillment, creativity, and even wisdom. Drawing on Tibetan Buddhism and other great wisdom traditions, as well as on neuroscience and holistic traditions, renowned teacher and national bestselling author Lama Surya Das shares real world examples, practical exercises, and essential techniques. The pace and pressure of today's world feels relentless. That is why, now more than ever, we need the ancient wisdom contained in Buddha Standard Time. Far from being at the mercy of time's demands, we will finally realize that we have, in fact, all the time in the world.

Life revolves around our relationships—with ourselves, others, and the world, including a connection to something greater. When relationships thrive, we feel fulfilled; when they falter, we suffer. We inherently need each other for connection, presence, and love. The "Buddhist heart," or Bodhicitta, represents our inner goodness—our most compassionate and caring self. This heart exists within everyone and is awakened through meaningful connections with family, partners, colleagues, neighbors, and all living beings. The book emphasizes using relationships as a pathway to a sacred life, highlighting the necessity of feeling connected to combat loneliness and alienation. Surya Das guides readers to reach both inward and outward, fostering spiritual intelligence and compassion. This awareness enhances our sensitivity to our feelings and those of others, improving our ability to relate and love. By cultivating these qualities, we become better partners, friends, and parents, leading to greater fulfillment and meaning in our lives. Through relatable experiences, ancient practices, and meditations, Surya Das illustrates how to develop authentic presence, deepen relationships, and embrace life's lessons, including loving what we find challenging. He also includes a translation of the Thirty-seven Practices of a Bodhisattva, offering timeless insights for self-reflection and mindfulness in our complex world.
