HIS HOLINESS THE DALAI LAMA REVEALS THE KEY TO ACHIEVING HAPPINESS AND A MEANINGFUL LIFE.

In How to See Yourself as You Really Are, the world's foremost Buddhist leader teaches listeners how to recognize and dispel misguided notions of self and embrace the world from a more realistic -- and loving -- perspective.

Step-by-step exercises help listeners shatter their false assumptions and ideas and see the world as it actually exists. His Holiness sets the stage for discovering the reality behind appearances. But getting past one's misconceptions is only a prelude to right action, and the final section describes how to harness the power of meditative concentration to the service of love, and vice versa, so that true altruistic enlightenment is attained. Enlivened by personal anecdotes and intimate accounts of the Dalai Lama's own life experiences, How to See Yourself as You Really Are is an inspirational and empowering guide to achieving self-awareness that can be enjoyed by spiritual seekers of all faiths.©2006 His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Very complex book to get through. I would have been lost if not for reading a few Dalai Lama books before this. That being said, the information in this book is valuable, essential, and dire to dispel the ignorance we all face on a daily basis. Highly recommend to all seeking personal or worldly peace. Also, Jeffrey Hopkins is an amazing narrator and this is my 3rd book he has narrated that I have thoroughly enjoyed.

Truly a precious teaching, beautifully translated and narrated. Will take you by the hand through a profound exploration of the self, guided by wisdom and compassion. Also a very friendly but thorough study of emptiness. The last chapter recapitulates the numerous guided insight meditations.

A jewel
