I really liked all three books of this series. Every book is interesting and good for different reasons.
Absolutely fantastic book. Loved reading it. Great story told in a very entertaining way. I also liked the main character very much.
This book is excellent for learning about vipassana meditation. I found it extremely helpful and useful. The other book that is equally useful is „The Illuminated Mind“. I found it very useful to read both books since they nicely complement each other.
This is a truly inspiring and life-changing book. Goldstein has an incredible way of taking deep, ancient teachings and making them feel accessible and practical for everyday life. His insights on mindfulness and the Buddha's path to awakening are both comforting and eye-opening. Whether you're new to meditation or have been practicing for years, this book feels like a warm, wise friend guiding you through the ups and downs of the mind. It's one of those books you keep coming back to for clarity and peace. At the moment, I am reading it for the second time and taking many notes...
I highly recommend this book to everyone.
The Dalai Lama's Cat by David Michie is an absolute gem for anyone looking to immerse themselves in wisdom served with a light, delightful touch. The book weaves together a series of charming stories narrated by an unlikely but endearing protagonist—the Dalai Lama's cat, affectionately known as HHC (His Holiness's Cat). Through the cat's eyes, readers are drawn into the serene yet bustling world of the Dalai Lama's residence in McLeod Ganj.
What makes this book truly special is how effortlessly it delivers profound Buddhist teachings in an easy-to-understand and entertaining manner. Each anecdote brings a sprinkle of humor, warmth, and insight, making the philosophies of mindfulness, compassion, and inner peace feel accessible and relatable. Michie's writing is fluid and engaging, infusing the narrative with a touch of wit that had me smiling throughout.
Reading this felt like sipping a warm cup of tea: comforting, enlightening, and uplifting. It was a joy from start to finish and left me with valuable life lessons wrapped in the playful antics of a cat. Truly, The Dalai Lama's Cat is a treasure for the soul.
Dieses Buch fand ich von der ersten Seite faszinierend und wundervoll zu lesen. Der Schreibstil ist einfach wunderschön. Die erzählte Geschichte ist aus vielen verschiedenen Aspekten sehr interessant. Sowohl die Erzählungen zum allgemeinen Zeitgeschehen wie auch die vielen persönlichen Erlebnisse von Stefan Zweig sind absolut lesenswert. Insgesamt eine ganz große Leseempfehlung von meiner Seite insbesondere auch für Leute die Geschichte eigentlich nicht so spannend finden.
This is a very interesting topic and I think it is universally useful for almost everyone. So it was very useful for me. The book was just a little bit long for the message or slightly repetitive. Nevertheless, I can highly recommend this book to everyone.
This is an insanely great book.
I enjoyed every single page. It is highly informative, very entertaining and an absolute joy to read.
I highly recommend to any fan of Apple, but also any person interested in technology.
The book is excellent, but it takes time to read and to understand. It is no book to read quickly and understand everything.
