All businesses want to do well, but can they also do good? Lloyd Field says yes, and moreover, no business can afford to focus simply on “doing well.” Increasingly, public assessment of a business’s worth must take into account its consideration of shared human values. That doesn’t mean a business can’t or should not compete; it means that investing in efforts to build a better society can, on many levels, be an asset. In this book, Field lays out the guidelines for putting social responsibility, both corporate and individual, into practice without sacrificing profits. Drawing from traditional Buddhist teachings, Field shows how, with attention to ethics, skillful means, and corporate responsibility, entrepreneurs and decision-makers can achieve new levels of happiness and security both inside the company and out, while acting as a powerful force for positive global change.

'I want to wish all of you joy-because there is no better gift. Two spiritual masters, the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, share their wisdom in this uplifting book. I promise you, it's the best $26 you can spend.' Oprah Winfrey Nobel Peace Prize Laureates His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu have survived more than fifty years of exile and the soul-crushing violence of oppression. Despite their hardships - or, as they would say, because of them - they are two of the most joyful people on the planet. In April 2015, Archbishop Tutu travelled to the Dalai Lama's home in Dharamsala, India, to celebrate His Holiness's eightieth birthday and to create this book as a gift for others. They looked back on their long lives to answer a single burning question: how do we find joy in the face of life's inevitable suffering? They traded intimate stories, teased each other continually, and shared their spiritual practices. By the end of a week filled with laughter and punctuated with tears, these two global heroes had stared into the abyss and despair of our times and revealed how to live a life brimming with joy. This book offers us a rare opportunity to experience their astonishing and unprecedented week together, from the first embrace to the final goodbye.

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 an increasingly popular speaker and statesman. What's more, he'll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that "the very motion of our life is towards 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. Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and discouragement. Together with Dr. Cutler, he explores many facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the pursuit of wealth, to illustrate how to ride through life's obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace.

Hoe kunnen wij het pad der verlichting vinden en blijven volgen? Op die centrale vraag geeft De glimlach van de middenweg een antwoord. Wees open, wees aandachtig, en ga steeds op zoek naar de waarheid achter je overtuigingen, zo draagt Tenzin Gyatso, de veertiende Dalai Lama, ons op. Door de oude boeddhistische wijsheden over compassie en onbaatzuchtigheid in de praktijk te brengen, kunnen wij allemaal de middenweg bewandelen. De glimlach van de middenweg valt in twee delen uiteen. In het eerste deel onderzoek de Dalai Lama de oertekst De Middenweg van de boeddhistische filosoof Nagarjuna (ca. 150-250 n.Chr.), de tekst waardoor het hedendaagse boeddhisme zich nog altijd laat inspireren. In het tweede gedeelte geeft de Dalai Lama, ditmaal gebaseerd op klassieke verzen van Tsongkhapa (1357-1419), handvatten om de ideeën over verlichting in de praktijk te brengen. Zo biedt de Dalai Lama, aan de hand van twee eeuwenoude teksten die nog altijd springlevend zijn, diepgravend inzicht in de principes van het Tibetaanse boeddhisme. Dankzij de persoonlijke, open houding van de Dalai Lama en zijn grote inzicht in de huidige tijd, is het een uiterst leesbaar boek, dat iedereen laat delen in zijn wijsheid.

In questo libro Sua Santità Tenzin Gyatso, XIV Dalai Lama, offre una chiara e penetrante panoramica della pratica buddhista tibetana, ponendo come sempre l'accento sulla pratica dell'amore, della gentilezza e della responsabilità universale. Il suo è un invito a essere consapevoli e presenti in ogni momento, costantemente vigili nel controllo dei nostri atteggiamenti, delle nostre azioni e motivazioni, a impegnarci in una seria indagine sul funzionamento della nostra mente e a cercare di apportare mutamenti positivi all'interno di noi stessi. Insignito nel 1989 del premio Nobel per la pace, il Dalai Lama è universalmente rispettato come uno dei più importanti leader spirituali. Questo libro è per tutti noi un'ottima occasione per accostarci a un grande uomo e ai suoi insegnamenti.

Pysyviä arvoja uudelle vuosituhannelle. Dalai-lama sanoo: "myötätunto tekee elämämme mielekkäämmäksi, sillä se on pysyvä onnellisuuden lähde". Dalai-lama tarkastelee päämääriemme uudelleen arviointia ja hyveen, hillinnän, myötätunnon ja kärsimyksen etiikkaa, kiinnittää huomiota yleiseen vastuuseemme toisistamme ja maapallostamme sekä tarkastelee myös eri elämänalueiden uusia ilmiöitä ja päivittäisiä ongelmatilanteita sekä sitä, miten on mahdollista elää mielekästä ja tasapainoista elämää.
