Description
He almost always has a smile on his face or is laughing when you see him. And he encourages smiles from others around him. He is the Dalai Lama, the political and spiritual head of Tibet, a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, and a highly sought-after public speaker. Why is he so well-like? Even after only a short while in his company, you can’t help but feel joyful.
The Dalai Lama will response with an unequivocal “yes” if you ask him if he is please despite losing his nation. He’ll also tell you that achieving happiness is the goal of life. That our very existence is gear toward it. The issue has always been how to get there. He’s tried to respond to it previously, but never with a psychiatrist’s assistance to help him explain the point in terms we can all comprehend.
The book that established the happy book genre, The Art of Happiness, continues to be the foundation of the study of positive psychology.
The Dalai Lama teaches us how to overcome everyday fear, insecurity, wrath, and discouragement via dialogues, stories, and meditations. Together with Dr. Howard Cutler, he examines a variety of aspects of daily life, such as relationships, grief, and the chase of riches, to show how to navigate the challenges of life while grounded in a rich and lasting inner calm. The Art of Happiness is a book that transcends cultures to assist readers with challenges that are common to all people since it is based on 2,500 years of Buddhist meditations combined with a good dose of common sense. This book, which has been in print for eleven years, has inspired people all around the world and touched countless lives.

Absolutely stunning illustrations plus really well-written text including a lot of stories that aren’t included in most kids bibles. Really recommend it for kids 5/6-10/11 years for a daily bible story working through the book.

I purchased this book for my niece’s baby shower. It is a great gift and a beautiful book. Note to the shipper, the book cover had a dent in the front due to the book being shipped in a simple envelope with no padding.
Anita Reed –
Great Book to introduce your grandchildren to teach them about Jesus Christ into Season.
Kimberley Barrett –
Nice approachable language for kids. It’s written in a fun, concise but still “proper biblical” way. Not very religious myself but I think it’s a great book and I’m actually finding it interesting to learn from it too!

We use the Jesus Story Book Bible for our children’s church material and the coloring pages are perfect for the kids who need something to do during the lesson.

It has been a while since I read this book but I found it to be such an insightful look at not only the Dalai lamas life but also how the hierarchy of the Dalai lama works.
Asko Korpela –
This is a collection of the world’s most common and historical religions. Reading the encyclopedic text shows us that from the beginning of humankind, there has been a belief in the spiritual and supernatural. By analyzing different cultures and geographic regions a picture that when compartmentalized appears conflicting.

I loved the way Dalai Lama could narrate concepts of life that were universal to all human beings globally irrespective of the caste, creed, or religion they belonged. This book gave me the insight to view my social, family and professional relationships differently. I am already seeing changes in me and how I interact with the world around me. Love is the universal language that connects us all.
Hollie –
The book is really good. It accounts for the life story of his holiness Dalai Lama. It also talks about Buddhism, the people of Tibet, China, and its help to the people of Tibet.

Adah –
This answers the most pertinent questions regarding Tibetan Buddhism and the current Dalai Lama’s story. I found it deeply moving, at times amusing and surprisingly relatable at times.
Benjamin –
Beautiful illustrations. Well thought out. Incorporates significant doctrinal truths within the stories themselves. It focuses more on the why of the stories rather than the specific details of stories. It may be better for families who are already familiar with the Bible.
Kathy Couture –
I am leading a disciple group once a week for a family with kids that do not know the bible stories. This book fits perfectly into what I wanted to teach. The kids like reading and looking at the pictures which help them understand. Highly recommend this book.
