An updated edition of a beloved classic, the original book on
happiness, with new material from His Holiness the Dalai Lama and
Dr. Howard Cutler.
Nearly every time you see him, he's laughing, or at least smiling.
And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He's the
Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel
Prize winner, and a hugely sought-after speaker and statesman. Why
is he so popular? Even after spending only a few minutes in his
presence you can't help feeling happier.
If you ask him if he's happy, even though he's suffered the loss
of his country, the Dalai Lama will give you an unconditional yes.
What's more, he?ll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life,
and that ?the very motion of our life is toward happiness.? How to
get there has always been the question. He's tried to answer it
before, but he's never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the
message across in a context we can easily understand.
"The Art of Happiness" is the book that started the genre of
happiness books, and it remains the cornerstone of the field of
positive psychology.
Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama
shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and
discouragement. Together with Dr. Howard Cutler, he explores many
facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the
pursuit of wealth, to illustrate how to ride through life's
obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace. Based on
2,500 years of Buddhist meditations mixed with a healthy dose of
common sense, "The Art of Happiness" is a book that crosses the
boundaries of traditions to help readers with difficulties common
to all human beings. After being in print for ten years, this book
has touched countless lives and uplifted spirits around the world.
