The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World

This book really describes the relationship between two World Leaders!! Both advocate the message of Peace and Harmony!! The teachings are really useful for everyone, despite the race or religion!! Both Teachers are gifted with Wit, and Compassion!! Their teachings are good for peace of mind and soul!!

It’s a amazing book. Filled with true wisdom and simple practices. The true nature of joy can be found here. Dalai Lama is so compassionate to build a world of love and joy. His talks are very inspiring and liberating at the same time. This book talk about the true happiness I.e not in the materialistic world but it is a nature of human being. And Douglas Abrams has organised this in a very beautiful way with proper scientific research. Both TUTU and Dalai Lama had suffered enough in their life and yet always have a Smile on their face. Coming to the product quality. It’s again 5 star.

I have read Dalai Lama s previous book The Art of Happiness ,really liked it and then this,It is a very good book,very simple and practicle approach ,it makes you feel positive about life s complications.The book imparts the simple way of life and peace within.. MUST READ...

This is one of the favs books which shows you both the arch bishop and his holiness upbringing and the common they have between them. Through this book , I learnt better about the bishop tutu and loved his childish sense of honour. And no word is enough to describe how compassionate and kind his holiness is.

i dont think there will be any other book written anytime sooner as parallel to this one...well organized points and to the point discussions... most importantly, two of the most genuine and influential peace figures sharing their views on questions which arise in every human mind at some or other point of time... it was such a treat to read through every question,every problem..

A must read book! Talks about simple things on how perspective can be changed and framing positively helps bring joy in life. Dalai Lama and Archbishop's personal experiences and how they practice joy in their lives make it a beautiful read. Many times you read a sentence and pause thinking about your own life problems and how framing it differently and feeling yourself as one of 7 billion people changes state of mind.

Optimistic. Beautiful. Lively. Indeed the booknof joy in an interesting format rather than mundane philosophical one sided lecture for chasing / creating happiness. Leaves you felling happy actually.

You will love the conversation style of the book and also went on to connect with multiple simple real life stories. Towards the end, it becomes slightly repetitive and there I lost some interest. Thus four stars

This book is exceptional. It will no doubt appeal to Christians and Buddhists, but has such valuable wisdom to share for people of all religions and none. Humility and humour light up pretty well every page. The Dalai Lama and Archbishop share stories and laughter, despite it being very clear that Archbishop Tutu is very close to the end of his life. There are practical suggestions on meditation too.. and photos (even on the Kindle edition) of this heart-warming meeting. This is a book to treasure.

Loved this book. It is good to read about joy and a realistic take on happiness

Reading this really helped me to solidify and understand some of the thoughts running around in my own head as my anxiety got worse. I'm still working on implementing the ideas taught in the book, but having them there as a guide or jumping off point for understanding myself and others has helped me to feel much better about myself and my place in this world.

Dos de los máximos líderes espirituales de nuestros tiempos comparten consejos y sus experiencias para vivir con alegría. Muy inspirador :)

Every page is just a wonderful with full of information, love, compassion, happiness, kindness
