About this deal

Two good friends, who both just happen to be Nobel prize winners, relate the story of finding each other as friends. United by the quest to spread peace and joy to their communities and to the world, their message is powerful. If you to look beyond the things that make you sad and find the joy that is everywhere, you will find peace. Rafael López’s wonderful mixed media illustrations carry this book, using rainbow colors and loving portrayals of the two men as boys. The art helps us celebrate the loveliness in small details all around – the birds in the sky, flowers, silly games shared with a sibling, and the loving hug of a caregiver.

If people who’ve suffered violently for more than half a century can be happy – why shouldn’t you be? And if they wrote a book teaching you few lessons – could you think of any excuse to not read it? Read for my toddler's bedtime a few too many times. It has a sweet message. This book introduces a little boy growing up in a small house and another little boy living in the big house by the mountain in the monastery. They're worlds apart, yet both feel lonely all the same. They're lonely also because other kids where they grow up don't let them play. The story went on to remind readers that when we sit still we start to see the beauty all around us. The power of attraction is mentioned where if all you think is of sadness then you will only feel sad. So this book asks readers to look around to see that joy is everywhere. It's in the warmth of the sun. It's in the giggly feeling when doing something silly. It's the snuggly feeling of being wrapped up in blankets. Even in the rain, you feel joy when you play in the puddles. Fantastic book. Beautiful illustrations. I highly recommend everyone to read this book!Generosity. Now that you understood the pain of others, be generous to them. Always offer than what you receive. And, in a way, you’ll actually receive the most. Key Lessons from “The Book of Joy” Expectedly, we didn’t hesitate for a second to include it in our list of best mindfulness books in history!

In a nutshell, Nobel Prize winners don’t write what’s already written; but what hasn’t been written before.

You are certainly not perfect – and that lifts a huge burden off your shoulders. Think about it. On 17 November 1950, at the age of 15, he was enthroned as Tibet's ruler. Thus he became Tibet's most important political ruler just one month after the People's Republic of China's invasion of Tibet on 7 October 1950. In 1954, he went to Beijing to attempt peace talks with Mao Zedong and other leaders of the PRC. These talks ultimately failed. It’s painful to think about it: unless someone ends aging fast, both of them – these two spiritual giants of the 20th century – will probably not be among us for long. Acceptance. This is where the change actually happens. More often than not, you can’t change reality. But you can change your attitude towards it.

You should build your joy upon eight pillars: perspective, humility, humor, acceptance, forgiveness, gratitude, compassion, and generosity. After a failed uprising and the collapse of the Tibetan resistance movement in 1959, the Dalai Lama left for India, where he was active in establishing the Central Tibetan Administration (the Tibetan Government in Exile) and in seeking to preserve Tibetan culture and education among the thousands of refugees who accompanied him.

He was born in 1935 as Lhamo Thondup and renamed four years later as Jetsun Jamphel Ngawang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso, or Tenzin Gyatso for short. He became Tibet’s leader in 1950 and received his Nobel Peace Prize in 1989. I loved the simple message of finding joy. It seems to be a message that a lot of people are having a hard time finding these days. The concept of joy is illustrated by a colorful wisp like wind. The illustrations are whimsical and captivating. This story has a such a sweet sentiment. And we guess this story tells a lot more about this book than any other, more conventional critical review.But it takes a lot of courage, dedication, and self-sacrifice to attain it and share it with others. 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. Fear of failure, of not getting what you want, of disrespect, or of others not loving you. Fear, if you leave it unattended, can evolve into anger and then decrease the quality of your life. Control it before it’s too late. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984, five years before the Dalai Lama. “The Book of Joy PDF Summary” Most people would define joy along these lines: it is the absence of suffering. However, Tutu and the Dalai Lama think otherwise: they say that joy is what happens when you understand suffering.
