Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In their 1998 book, His Holiness the Dalai Lama and co-author Howard C. Cutler, M.D., delve into how inner development fosters happiness. In their second collaboration, they tackle a topic that impacts millions: the relationship between work and happiness. The authors seek to answer questions like "Where does work fit into our quest for happiness?" and "How does work satisfaction influence overall life satisfaction?" This engaging book resembles a modern Socratic dialogue, with Cutler posing questions to the Dalai Lama about workplace challenges and rewards. They discuss themes such as work and identity, financial gain, the Buddhist idea of "right livelihood," and how to transform dissatisfaction at work. Initially, the insights may seem straightforward, but the Dalai Lama's profound wisdom shines through upon deeper reflection. He emphasizes that fundamental human values—kindness, tolerance, compassion, honesty, and forgiveness—are essential for happiness. Through clear examples, he demonstrates how applying these qualities to work-related issues can help navigate difficult situations. Acknowledging that not all challenges can be resolved, the Dalai Lama offers practical advice. The authors advocate for balance and self-awareness, cautioning against relying solely on work for fulfillment.
