Keeping the Dalai Lama Waiting & Other Stories
How does an English, Christian girl grow up to be an acclaimed Tibetan Buddhist Lama? It was a search for Truth and a deep wish to understand the mind that led a young, determined Susan Rowan (b.1946) from suburban Essex, England, to the foothills of the Himalayas in the early 1970s. On the instruction of famed Tibetan Buddhist master Ch gyam Trungpa Rinpoche, she headed East to 'absorb the vibes' as he put it. There she met and was taught by some of the most eminent Tibetan Lamas and yogins of our time, including Kalu Rinpoche, Bokar Rinpoche and The 16th Karmapa, who ordained her as a nun and subsequently sent her back to the West to teach. At the request of her students, Lama Shenpen Hookham tells her fascinating and unconventional life story in the 'Keeping the Dalai Lama Waiting & Other Stories'. The lively, anecdotal autobiography documents her extraordinary spiritual journey and her encounters with her teachers that are deeply profound, moving and often humorous. Lama Shenpen

Dalai Lama
Det är få nu levande personer har haft så stort inflytande på så många människor under så lång tid som Dalai lama. Sedan den dramatiska flykten från Tibet 1959 har han inspirerat människor över hela världen med sina föreläsningar om tibetansk buddhism och icke-våldsprinciper. Han har även varit en frontfigur i kampen för frihet för sitt hemland som varit ockuperat av Kina sedan början av femtiotalet. För detta fick han Nobels fredspris 1989. Men det finns också en annan sida av Dalai lama och idag utmålas han av Kina som en "kriminell separatist" medan han har tagits emot som en hedrad gäst framför allt i väst, vilket håller honom kvar i världspolitikens centrum.Den stora frågan är vad som kommer att hända den dag Dalai lama är borta. Vem blir hans efterträdare och vad kommer att hända med Tibet? I den här boken tecknar Bertil Lintner inte bara ett porträtt av Dalai lama utan även en historisk bakgrund till frågan om Tibets status, och varför den alltid varit så omtvistad.

Who Is the Dalai Lama?
Two-year-old Lhamo Thondup never imagined he would be anything other than an ordinary child, but after undergoing a series of tests, he was proclaimed the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet. By age 15, he found himself the undisputed leader of six million people who were facing the threat of a full-scale war from the Chinese. After the defeat of the Tibetan national uprising in 1959, the Dalai Lama had to flee Tibet and went into exile in India. For nearly 50 years, he has aimed to establish Tibet as a self-governing, democratic state. In 1989, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his nonviolent efforts for the liberation of Tibet and his concern for global environmental problems. As the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, the Dalai Lama continues to spend his life working to benefit humanity and preserving Tibetan culture.

The Art of Happiness: A Handbook for Living
A beloved classic--the original book on happiness, with new material from His Holiness the Dalai Lama Nearly every time you see him, he's laughing, or at least smiling. And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He's the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel Prize winner, and a hugely sought-after speaker and statesman. Why is he so popular? Even after spending only a few minutes in his presence you can't help feeling happier. If you ask him if he's happy, even though he's suffered the loss of his country, the Dalai Lama will give you an unconditional yes. What's more, he'll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that the very motion of our life is toward happiness. How to get there has always been the question. He's tried to answer it before, but he's never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the message across in a context we can easily understand. The Art of Happiness is the book that started the genre of happiness books, and

Approaching the Buddhist Path
The first volume in a multivolume collection presenting the Dalai Lama's comprehensive explanation of the Buddhist path--now in paperback His Holiness the Dalai Lama has been publicly teaching Buddhism for decades. This series collects his presentations of every step of the path to enlightenment, compiled and coauthored by one of his chief Western disciples, the American nun Thubten Chodron. The Buddha wanted his students to investigate, to see for themselves whether what he said was true. As a student of the Buddha, the Dalai Lama promotes the same spirit of investigation, and as the rich tradition of the Buddha makes its way into new lands and cultures, His Holiness has recognized that new approaches are needed to allow seekers in the West to experience the relevance of the liberating message in their own lives. Such an approach cannot assume listeners are free from doubt and already have faith in Buddhism's basic tenets. The Library of Wisdom and Compassion series, therefore,
Voice for the Voiceless: Over Seven Decades of Struggle with China for My Land and My People
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In this unique book offering personal, spiritual, and historical reflections--some never shared before--His Holiness the Dalai Lama tells the full story of his struggle with China to save Tibet and its people for nearly seventy-five years. The Dalai Lama has had to contend with the People's Republic of China for about his entire life. He was sixteen years old when Communist China invaded Tibet in 1950, only nineteen when he had his first meeting with Chairman Mao in Beijing, and twenty-five when he was forced to escape to India and became a leader in exile. In the decades since, he has faced Communist China's leaders--Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao, and Xi Jinping--in his efforts to protect Tibet and its people, with their distinct language, culture, religion, history, and environment, in the face of the greatest possible obstacles. Now, almost seventy-five years after China's initial invasion of Tibet, the Dalai Lama reminds the
