| Book Description | Desmond Tutu, Douglas Abrams
Two spiritual giants. Five days. One eternal question.
In April 2015, Archbishop Tutu travelled to the Dalai Lama's home in Dharamsala, India, to celebrate His Holiness's eightieth birthday and create what they hoped would be a gift to others. They looked back on their long lives to answer one pressing question: How can we find joy in the face of life's inevitable suffering?
They shared intimate stories, teased each other continuously, and shared their spiritual exercises. As a laughter-filled weekend arrived, these two world champions stared into the abyss and despair of our time and showed how to live joyful lives.
This book offers us a rare opportunity to experience their amazing and unparalleled week together, from the first hug to the last goodbye.
We can listen as they explore the true nature of joy, facing all obstacles, from fear, stress, and anger, to sorrow, illness, and death. They then introduce us to the eight pillars of joy, which provide the foundation for lasting happiness. Along the way, they include stories, wisdom, and science. Eventually, they share their daily joyful exercises, which have cemented their emotional and spiritual lives. |
