The Compassionate Life

Dalai Lama

Publié en 2001

Livre
Documentaire

Four powerful, compelling teachings on compassion by the Dalai Lama are presented here, with advice on how to incorporate this important quality in daily life. "The key to a happier and more successful world is the growth of compassion." --His Holiness the Dalai Lama Giving and receiving affection is the key to happiness, and compassion is the key that opens our hearts to affection. Illuminating themes touched upon in The Good Heart and The Art of Happiness, this generous and gentle book contains some of the most beloved teachings on compassion that the Dalai Lama has ever offered. Touching and transformative, The Compassionate Life is a personal invitation from one of the world's most gifted teachers to live a life of happiness, joy, and true prosperity. Collected here for the first time are four of the Dalai Lama's most accessible and inspiring teachings on compassion. The purpose of life is to be happy, His Holiness reminds us. To be happy, we should devote ourselves to developing our own peace of mind; the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater our own peace of mind. Therefore, we must develop compassion for others in order to be truly happy. In these four teachings--imbued with the gentle humor and extraordinary kindness of this incomparable teacher--His Holiness explores altruism and the need for compassion on an individual as well as a global scale. He offers specific practices for developing loving-kindness and compassion in even the most difficult situations.

Dalai Lama

Publié en 1997

Livre

For the first time, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama presents his views concerning the Self in Buddhism. In the process, he explains how Buddhist teachings differentiate the person and the eternal soul. An inspiring book that encourages religious and spiritual dialogue. Review: Buddha Nature is a very complex topic in Tibetan Buddhism. Not many books deal with this topic and an even smaller number present this concept in perspective to Christian ideas of self, immortality and eternal soul. Today's most famous (and articulate) spokesperson for Buddhism, the Dalai Lama presents views concerning the Self in Buddhism. In the process, he explains how Buddhist teachings differentiate the person and the eternal soul. At the same time, he explains his ideas of Nirvana. A fascinating synthesis of individuality and universality arises, one that could only be formed by His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. The Buddha Nature is an inspiring book that encourages religious and spiritual dialogue. The Buddha Nature is an insightful and valuable contribution to Buddhist studies. -- Midwest Book Review
