Book Description
It is common knowledge that the way we think profoundly affects our health and happiness. As Tibetan Bon culture has known for centuries, true, original thought is one of the most powerful energy resources that we each have, and tapping into it can bring us great spiritual, emotional and financial success. But, as Christopher Hansard - leading authority in Tibetan medicine - explains, most of us don't know how to think effectively. What we imagine to be thoughts are simply reactions to our environment and to other people, and are far removed from 'original thought', which has the power to transform lives. In this enlightening book, Hansard shows us how to take control of our thinking. Using simple meditations and exercises he shows how we can each harness the power of positive thinking to block negativity, transform emotions, and discover the deepest meaning of our lives, to make it the life we truly want to live.

Book Description
From the authors who brought you the million-copy bestseller The Art of Happiness comes an exploration of job, career, and finding the ultimate happiness at work. Over the past several years, Howard Cutler has continued his conversations with the Dalai Lama, asking him the questions we all want answered about how to find happiness in the place we spend most of our time. Work-whether it's in the home or at an office-is what mostly runs our lives. We depend on it to eat, to clothe and shelter ourselves, and to take care of our families. Beginning with a direct correlation between productivity and happiness, Dr. Cutler questions His Holiness about the nature of work. In psychiatry and according to the Dalai Lama, our motivation for working determines our level of satisfaction. The book explores three levels of focus: survival, career, and calling. Once again, Cutler walks us through the Dalai Lama's reasoning so that we know how to apply the wisdom to daily life. This practical application of Buddhist ideas is an invaluable source of strength and peace for anyone who earns a living.

Book Description
Connect with the sacred art of Buddhism through the creative act of coloring. Buddhist art is rich with symbolism and meaning. Taking the time to color and interact with these symbols and motifs is a simple yet profound way to practice mindfulness and move closer to a greater awareness of one’s own essential nature. The drawings here—all meticulously painted by hand with a small sable brush—relate to the state of being completely awakened and evoke a deep sense of calm and stillness. A concise description of each drawing unravels the many layers of meaning contained within this sacred art, inviting a deeper connection with these drawings.

Book Description
“A magnificent achievement. In its power to touch the heart, to awaken consciousness, [The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying] is an inestimable gift.” —San Francisco Chronicle A newly revised and updated edition of the internationally bestselling spiritual classic, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, written by Sogyal Rinpoche, is the ultimate introduction to Tibetan Buddhist wisdom. An enlightening, inspiring, and comforting manual for life and death that the New York Times calls, “The Tibetan equivalent of [Dante’s] The Divine Comedy,” this is the essential work that moved Huston Smith, author of The World’s Religions, to proclaim, “I have encountered no book on the interplay of life and death that is more comprehensive, practical, and wise.”

Book Description
“Imagine yourself sitting with a notebook and biro, scribbling down every word that you hear. You find yourself caught up in a dialogue that makes you laugh, cry, even be lost for words. These conversations, these words are very special, and I know that because they’re starting to change my life. My world expands every time we meet and talk, Sebastian and I.”“One day he suggests the idea of a book, so that I can tell you about what I’ve discovered. I’m excited at the prospect. That’s because I want other people to know what I know. But I realise I’ll also need to show you how I sometimes sit there with Sebastian, not understanding, sometimes sceptical – resistant, even. It’s not always easy being challenged, though I’m here to find out how to open my mind to new ways. This is my story, and maybe some of the pieces are yours too. I draw on my life experiences to illustrate and describe what happened to me. I tell you about the people I’ve met and learned from.”Walking Towards Light is a collection of short pieces which can be read both as a story about how author Jay Davies changed her life, and also as a variety of topics to return to at will. It is written in an easy and accessible style and shows the thinking processes she went through in order to make those changes. The book has a spiritual dimension, as that is part of her story, and it also includes some of her poems.Jay has been inspired by many spiritual authors and has written Walking Towards Light for people who want to make sense of the way they live their life and potentially make changes.
