The Dalai Lama’s message of peace and compassion resonates with people of all faiths and none. Yet, for all his worldwide fame, he remains personally elusive.

In a clear and engaging way, this book shows how the principle of emptiness, the philosophic heart of Tibetan Buddhism, connects intimately to quantum nonlocality and other foundational features of quantum mechanics. Detailed connections between emptiness, modern relativity, and the nature of time are also explored. For Tibetan Buddhists, the profound interconnectedness implied by emptiness demands the practice of universal compassion.

For more than half a century, in such books as The Art of Happiness and The Dalai Lama's Little Book of Inner Peace, the Dalai Lama has guided us along the path to compassion and taught us how to improve our inner lives.

This revelatory and inspiring work provides a singular vision for transforming the world in practical and positive ways.

Seinen neuen Appell richtet der Dalai Lama an die Millenniumsgeneration, an die Jugend der Welt, die herangewachsen ist in einer Zeit von Terror, Klimawandel und Vertreibung. Er ruft sie dazu auf, sich diesen Verwerfungen entgegenzustellen und eine Revolution zu starten, die es so noch nicht gegeben hat. Denn gerade die Jugend ist vernetzt und stark genug, den Herausforderungen unserer Zeit zu begegnen und das 21. Jahrhundert zu einer Ära des Friedens und des Dialogs zu machen.

Klima-Feedback-Loops sind sich selbst verstärkende Kreisläufe. Drehen sie sich zu lange, können wir sie selbst dann nicht mehr stoppen, wenn wir jede CO2-Emission einstellen. Dann machen sie diesen Planeten ganz von selbst unbewohnbar. Und einige dieser Loops drehen sich bereits... Greta Thunberg und der Dalai Lama zeigen in diesem auf einem Gespräch zwischen ihnen basierenden Buch mit Hilfe mehrerer international renommierter Wissenschaftler nicht nur die Gefahr, die von den Klima-Feedback-Loops ausgeht.

Sono molte le pratiche dell'insegnamento buddhista che si concentrano sull'essere nel momento presente. È una condizione che ci permette di tradurre in pratica i principi fondamentali della dottrina: se rimaniamo vincolati al passato, se siamo ansiosi per il futuro, se non sperimentiamo il vuoto che deriva dalla rinuncia all'attaccamento, se non comprendiamo fino in fondo l'interdipendenza di tutte le cose, non saremo mai nelle condizioni di vivere la vita nella sua pienezza. E di trovare la pace e la felicità, qui e adesso.
