Book Description
The End of Suffering and the Discovery of Happiness presents a clear and straightforward road map for how we might end our experience of suffering and discover happiness, drawn by the most celebrated spiritual master of Buddhism—His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
In this insightful volume, he not only describes what religion can contribute to mankind, but also accentuates the significance of truly practicing religion and understanding what it is that mankind really needs.
His Holiness explains the three turnings of the wheel of Dharma; the purpose and the means of generating the mind of enlightenment; and the twelve links of dependent arising, as well as other preliminary concepts. Tsongkhapa’s The Three Principal Aspects of the Path and The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment have also been beautifully described in great detail.
In The End of Suffering and the Discovery of Happiness, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, renowned for his warm-heartedness and his message of love, compassion, and peace offers an illuminating glimpse into the core of Tibetan Buddhism.
Dalai Lama
The Dalai Lama is the supreme religious leader of Tibetan Buddhists and until 1959 AD, the Dalai Lama represented the spiritual and worldly leadership in Tibet.
He is, of course, a Buddhist monk of the Gelugpa group, which was founded by Tsongkhapa (1357-1419).
The title of King of Tibet and the successor of Buddha in the eyes of his followers. The last to hold this title was the 14th Dalai Lama, born in Shanghai in 1935, when he was four years old when a group of lamas considered him to be the successor to the 13th Dalai Lama. It was then erected in Lhasa in 1940 and came to be considered a "living Buddha".
He was a pacifist. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989 for his peaceful struggle for the liberation of Tibet. He has consistently advocated nonviolent policies, even in the face of extreme aggression. He also became the first Nobel Prize winner to be honored for his interest in global environmental problems.
