Description

Sayings, prayers and stories drawn from the life and teachings of one of the world's greatest spiritual teachers are here brought together as reflections for each day of the year. His Holiness the Dalai Lama speaks with an informal practicality about almost every aspect of human life, from the secular to the religious. Reminding us of the power of compassion and meditation, he shares his thoughts about science and its relation to the spiritual life, and about how we can still retain the simple values of love and courage in spite of the fact that the world is changing so fast. He also points out the interdependence between an action and its result so that we never forget the responsibility that lies in each of our deeds. Wise, humane and inspiring, these words will bring daily solace to all with their message of hope and their deep yet easily understandable philosophy of kindness and non-violence.

Author Bio

The Dalai Lama works tirelessly to achieve Tibet's autonomy from China - as well as giving spiritual teaching round the globe to sell-out audiences. Renuka Singh (the compiler) has been a Research Fellow at Oxford University and is now a writer and academic in New Delhi.
