Another Enlightening Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is the second book I have read by the Dalai Lama and it did not disappoint. His overpowering positivity is found throughout the book and it guides you through thought processes and progressions that if you follow will lead to a better way of life. His Eight Verses for Training the Mind and explanation of them I found especially helpful. This is just an example of some of the wisdom you can find in this book. In the search for inner peace I have found the Dalai Lama is perhaps one of the best teachers you can take on. I will continue to read more of his works.
In My Own Words
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
In My Own Words by Rajiv Mehrota, is a very loving book. Being raised in the Christian faith, I have limited knowledge on Buddhism. As I am a truth or knowledge seeker, this book is just want I need. I've always admired His Holiness the Dalai Lama. His teachings are pure and just what our world needs right now. Christ taught the same things, but organized religions turned his teachings into something that they can manipulate for their own use. Compassion, love of others, love of ourselves, love for Mother Earth, love for God/the Universe are what we need now and this book gives us an insight on how to start living this way.
Seeking Compassion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The Dalai Lama's newest book is compassionately written for people like me who know little about Buddhism but would love to understand more. My goal was to learn how to be more compassionate and went to the expert on the subject. I will use it as a "text book" for years to come.
