Book Reviews of How to See Yourself As You Really Are
Book Review: Good message
Summary: 3 Stars
There is (as always with the Dalai Lama) a good message for all who read this book. It does give you great insight into how you can view the world and be a peace with everything in your life. However, it is a very dry read and sometimes I lost my focus and had to go back and re-read parts of the book. There are also many parts of the book that are redundant which also caused me to lose focus every now and again. I would recommend this book to friends, and did buy this book for my adult son: However, I would tell them to be prepared to sift through the book and gloss over the redundant parts and focus on the gems of wisdom.
Summary of How to See Yourself As You Really Are
According to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, we each possess the ability to achieve happiness and a meaningful life, but the key to realizing that goal is self-knowledge. In How to See Yourself As You Really Are, the world's foremost Buddhist leader and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize shows readers how to recognize and dispel misguided notions of self and embrace the world from a more realistic -- and loving -- perspective. Through illuminating explanations and step-by-step exercises, His Holiness helps readers to see the world as it actually exists, and explains how, through the interconnection of meditative concentration and love, 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 that can be read and enjoyed by anyone seeking spiritual fulfillment.
