Buddhism Dalai Lama

In a clear and engaging way, this book shows how the principle of emptiness, the philosophic heart of Tibetan Buddhism, connects intimately to quantum nonlocality and other foundational features of quantum mechanics.

Voulez-vous devenir heureux ? Demandez au dalaï-lama comment le faire ! Le bonheur est le désir supérieur qui fait agir notre monde. Cela se reflète dans toutes les philosophies et religions.

Vous y trouverez : L'histoire passionnante de la tradition du dalaï-lama, la biographie de Tenzin Gyatso, le 14e dalaï-lama du Tibet qui est non seulement le chef spirituel des tous les bouddhistes, mais aussi un des combattants les plus célèbres pour la paix du 20e siècle, les paraboles bouddhistes reflétant la sagesse intemporelle.

Le Dalaï-Lama poursuit sa réflexion sur le bonheur en s'interrogeant sur la relation que chacun entretient avec les autres.

Soucieux d'éviter la pure spéculation religieuse ou philosophique, le Dalaï-Lama propose dans ces entretiens avec Howard Cutler des conseils empreints d'une lumineuse sagesse, mais aussi pragmatiques et en phase avec notre temps.

As it turns out, Buddha had quite a lot to say on the subject of gratitude, including citing it as one of the four keys to the Gate of Heaven. Studies show - and experts counsel - that gratitude is a key component of our happiness. People who are grateful about events and experiences from the past, who celebrate triumphs instead of focusing on losses or disappointments, tend to be more satisfied. Gratitude can help us transform our fears into courage, our anger into forgiveness, our isolation into belonging, and another’s pain into healing.
