Synopsis:
The Dalai Lama often says, "My religion is kindness". His translator, Jeffrey Hopkins, writes that by learning to live from a more compassionate viewpoint, we can create a better life not only for ourselves but for everyone. In this book Hopkins uses Buddhist meditations, visualizations, and personal reflections to guide us in developing an awareness of the capacity for love inside us and learning to project that love into the world around us.
Delivering a potent message with the power to change our relationships and improve the quality of our lives, a Truthful Heart is an ideal book for an age in which our dealings with each other seem increasingly impersonal - and even violent and aggressive. Anyone seeking release from anger and hurt, or simply wanting to increase the love and caring among us, will welcome this timely vision for humanity.
"One of the finest presentations of Tibetan Buddhist mind-training in print." Stephen Batchelor.
"A must-read for those searching for a path to a more joyful and fulfilling life." Goldie Hawn.
"Delivered in straightforward prose and peppered with Hopkins' wry observations and personal anecdotes." Shambhala Sun.
"In six unobstructed steps (Hopkins) offers a clear how-to meditation manual on cultivating compassion, a major theme found in all Buddhist traditions. This book is refreshingly jargon-free, with everyday life applications…helps readers to explore the implications of the Dalai Lama's oft-heard refrain, "We all want happiness and do not want suffering.".
This book is a new, expanded edition of Cultivating Compassion. |
