Product Description
A PATH TO HAPPINESS: HIS HOLINESS THE DALAI LAMA LESSONS OF MEDITATION & COMPASSION

Considered one of the greatest influencers of our time, the Dalai Lama has spent his life teaching people how to be happy. Being happy is not only our right, he teaches, but is clearly the principle force that drives our lives. Our ability to attain a lasting happiness, however, is not so clear. The path of inner transformation begins with developing an understanding of our true nature. Once this door opens, one naturally develops a feeling of compassion and acceptance for oneself and others. In these difficult times, people are looking for answers to finding inner peace and happiness and arguably the greatest teacher shares important insights to getting there.

DETAILS OF PROGRAMS ON DVD:

MEDITATING WITH THE DALAI LAMA is a clear introduction to the nature and benefits of meditation. In a fun and easy going way, the Dalai Lama shows how to meditate and obtain mental happiness. This is the first step on the path to improving our capacity for joy, compassion and happiness.

THE POWER OF COMPASSION encourages us to forget our differences and focus on how we are fundamentally the same. So begins the path of compassion. Compassionate people are happier, calmer and healthier and create a pleasant environment for the family and community.

COMPASSION: THE BASIS OF HUMAN HAPPINESS goes into greater detail of how cultivating compassion for ourselves and others creates happiness. This allows us to be more sincere in our lives and allows others to do the same.

Contains nearly 4 hours of historic talks.

5.0 out of 5 stars A treasure, April 26, 2007
By Sandy Schulhoff (Bel Air, MD) - See all my reviews
I liked this DVD a lot. I am not a Buddhist, but am interested in psychological/philosophical/spiritual questions. I am also interested in learning more about meditation and all the health benefits associated with it. This DVD spans a wide range of topics over 4 hours of talks with the Dalai Lama touching on a number of issues central to finding personal and collective happiness. What I liked most is seeing the personality of one of the greatest thinkers of our time and how gentle and thoughtful he is. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational..., September 11, 2007
By Irina (Florida) - See all my reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed this DVD. This DVD is comprised of 3 seperate lectures given by H.H.Dalai Lama on Meditation and Compassion. His talks on compassion are very inspirational. His message is one of tolerance, patience, compassion, forgiveness, as ways to help human kind. Through his lectures we learn about positive vs negative mental states and how our own mental states and attitudes affect not only our immediately environment and ourselves, but also, humanity at large. He has an endearing personality and is fun to listen to. This is someone that despite his position, he remains humble and easy to relate to. The only drawback I found on this DVD was that there are no subtitles. H.H. sometimes has a thick accent. Often I found myself having to rewind a bit and listen again to a particular word or phrase. I think subtitles in English and also in other languages would make his beautiful and powerful messages accessible to more people.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great DVD, October 10, 2007
By Alice Becker (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this after seeing a short clip on a DVD I received as a gift. I did not know much about the Dalai Lama, but obviously knew who he was. The DVD footage is very informative and I really enjoyed watching him speak. There is something very calming about just watching him speak and discuss such a wide range of interesting topics. I highly recommend this DVD.
