But how well do we understand love's extraordinarily transformative powers? Can we really cultivate and appreciate its priceless gifts? In How to Expand Love: His Holiness the Dalai Lama, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, offers a simple yet illuminating program for transforming self~centered energy into outwardly directed compassion. Drawing on exercises and techniques established in Tibetan monasteries more than a thousand years ago, the Dalai Lama guides us through seven key stages. First, we learn ways to move beyond our self~ defeating tendency to put others into rigid categories. We discover how to create and maintain a positive attitude toward those around us, in ever~widening circles. By reflecting on the kindnesses that close friends have shown us, particularly in childhood, we learn to reciprocate and help other people achieve their own long~term goals. And in seeking the well being of others, we foster compassion, the all~encompassing face of love. In this accessible and insightful book His Holiness the Dalai Lama helps us to open our hearts and minds to the experience of unlimited love, transforming every relationship in our lives and guiding us ever closer to wisdom and enlightenment.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Book Club Edition. This is a very nice hardcover copy of "Ethics for the New Millennium" by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. Published in 1999 by Riverhead Books. It is likely a book club edition. On the rear flap of the jacket is stated the following: "His Holiness the Dalai Lama is the spiritual and temporal leader of the Tibetan people. His tireless efforts on behalf of human rights and world peace have brought hm international recognition. He is the recipient of the Wallenberg Award (conferred by the U.S. Congressional Human Rights Commission), the Albert Schweitzer Award, and the Nobel Peace Prize. *********************************** On the rear panel of the jacket is a statement from the Dalai Lama: "Compassion is what makes our lives meaningful. It is the source of all lasting happiness and joy. And it is the foundation of a good heart, the heart of one who acts out of a desire to help others. Through kindness, through affection, through honesty, through truth and justice for all others we ensure our own benefit. This is not a matter for complicated theorizing. It is a matter of common sense.There is no denying that consideration of others is worthwhile. there is no denying that our happiness is inextricably bound up with the happiness of others. There is no denying that if society suffers we ourselves suffer. Nor is there any denying that the more our hearts and minds are afflicted with ill-will, the more miserable we become. Thus we can reject everything else: religion, ideology, all received wisdom. But we cannot escape the necessity of love and compassion." ********************************************* TITLE : Ethics for the New Millennium. / AUTHOR : Tenzin Gyatso - His Holiness the Dalai Lama ( 14th ) / IMPRINT : Riverhead Books (a subsidiary of Penguin Putnam) / PLACE : New York. / DATE : 1999. / EDITION : Likely issued through a book club.
