Book
Be happy / His holiness the Dalai Lama.
A simple and accessible guide for finding and embracing happiness from one of the spiritual giants of our time. Nobody wakes up in the morning wishing for more trouble that day. However, emotional trouble--unhappiness--is essentially our own creation. This book explores two things you need to know about unhappiness and how to replace it with joy. The first is the failure to understand reality, and the second is egotism. Together they result in distress, dis-ease, and a failure to take personal responsibility. His Holiness the Dalai Lama counsels readers to take responsibility for their thoughts and actions, and to understand that our problems are of our own making and not the result circumstances or the actions of others. He presents a path for taking charge of our lives.
