A short book at 72 pages, this is really a primer on Mind Training (exchanging self for other)。 If you are familiar with the Mahayana practice already, there isn't really anything new in here for you。 If you aren't - Mind Training is one of the key practices in the Tibetan tradition, of transforming suffering into happiness - to turn the suffering of suffering into a tool to advance yourself forwards on the path。 A short book at 72 pages, this is really a primer on Mind Training (exchanging self for other)。 If you are familiar with the Mahayana practice already, there isn't really anything new in here for you。 If you aren't - Mind Training is one of the key practices in the Tibetan tradition, of transforming suffering into happiness - to turn the suffering of suffering into a tool to advance yourself forwards on the path。 。。。more

I enjoyed reading this book and reminding myself to reflect on present difficult circumstances and see it as happiness。 Lama Rinpoche provides an thoughtful perspectives on anger, pride, selfishness, and on the happiness based on external factors。 A truly enlightening book that transforms the view of difficulties and sufferings in life。

Sou uma grande admiradora da Filosofia Budista。Este é um livro bastante curto, de linguagem simples, que procura ajudar a transformar todos os problemas que vivenciamos em algo positivo, que ajude nosso crescimento pessoal。

I keep a copy of this book next to my bed, bring it with me when I travel, and re-read it when I have a bad day。 I’m Lutheran and therefore read through what I guess you’d call a “Christian lens,” but nothing in this text strikes me as contrary to the teachings of Jesus, nor would I hesitate to recommend this book to any of my atheist friends。TPIH is more about your state of mind and patterns of thinking than it is about what you believe (or don’t believe, for that matter。) I’ve talked to counse I keep a copy of this book next to my bed, bring it with me when I travel, and re-read it when I have a bad day。 I’m Lutheran and therefore read through what I guess you’d call a “Christian lens,” but nothing in this text strikes me as contrary to the teachings of Jesus, nor would I hesitate to recommend this book to any of my atheist friends。TPIH is more about your state of mind and patterns of thinking than it is about what you believe (or don’t believe, for that matter。) I’ve talked to counselors and therapists, kept journals, meditated, took medication, and a host of other things, but NONE of them have helped me to become a calmer, steadier person than this book has。Highly recommended。 。。。more

I read this a chapter(ish) at a time in my Naturopath's office。 I love the message and I think it is very clear and concise and easy to read。 A lot of philosophy books fly right over my head but this one actually stuck。 It's all about attitude。 Look on the bright side of everything。 I'm trying but sometimes life makes that hard。 I read this a chapter(ish) at a time in my Naturopath's office。 I love the message and I think it is very clear and concise and easy to read。 A lot of philosophy books fly right over my head but this one actually stuck。 It's all about attitude。 Look on the bright side of everything。 I'm trying but sometimes life makes that hard。 。。。more

I liked this book and thought I could read it in a day, but something was tough to understand about it。 Oh well, I'd heard about it as a self help sitting on someone's bookshelf。 I liked this book and thought I could read it in a day, but something was tough to understand about it。 Oh well, I'd heard about it as a self help sitting on someone's bookshelf。 。。。more
