Summary:
His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu share their own hard-won wisdom about living with joy even in the face of adversity. Both winners of the Nobel Prize, both great spiritual masters and moral leaders of our time, they are also known for being among the most infectiously happy people on the planet, despite having experienced great personal and national suffering. Both the Dalai Lama and Tutu have been tested by extraordinary adversity, oppression, and conflict. Includes their personal stories and teachings about joy and the qualities essential for any enduring happiness, like gratitude, humility, humour, compassion, generosity, and forgiveness. Practical exercises and guidance based on the Dalai Lama's and Tutu's own daily practices which anchor their emotional and spiritual lives.
