In Search of Wisdom is a book born of the friendship of three
gifted teachers, exploring the universal human journey and our
quest for meaning and understanding. This translation of the French
bestseller brings readers an intimate, insightful, and wide-ranging
conversation between Buddhist monk and author Matthieu Ricard,
philosopher Alexandre Jollien, and psychiatrist Christophe Andre.
Join these three luminaries as they share their views on how we
uncover our deepest aspirations in life, the nature of the ego,
living with the full range of human emotion, the art of listening,
the temple of the body, the origin of suffering, the joy of
altruism, true freedom, and much more. "We don't pretend to be
experts on the subject matter or models in accomplishing the work
or overcoming the obstacles involved in it," they write. "We are
only travelers in search of wisdom, aware that the path is long and
arduous, and that we have so much still to discover, to clarify,
and to assimilate through practice . . . Our dearest wish is that
when you cast your eyes on these pages, you will discover subjects
for reflection to inspire you and brighten the light of your
life."? In Search of Wisdom Highlights * Discovering our deepest
aspirations * The ego: friend or impostor? * Learning to live with
the full spectrum of our emotions * The art of listening * The
body: burden or idol? * Suffering and its origins * The joy of
altruism * The school of simplicity * Guilt and forgiveness * True
