Got Balance?
I'm a clinical social worker providing outpatient therapy to families. This book is an excellent way to see the world through a universally compassionate lens. I refer back to it often, especially when the chaos of the world is tipping towards overwhelming. A must have read for balanced living.

Very calming, intelligent book
This book has the potential to change the way you live if you let it, and if you put the words of the Dalai Lama to use in your own life. He does not preach religion, or judge you in any way. His words only push for peaceful living, and compassion towards others, which can turn your life around positively, as well as the lives of others. He talks about how to resolve conflict, and how to maintain a positive outlook. I initially bought this book to calm my mind. I am an activist and recently watched a video on animals that were skinned alive. It troubled me so much I could not get the image out of my mind, and could not stop thinking about how terrible people can be to others. I could not even fathom that this kind of cruelty happened. I read his book hoping to find an answer to how to ... This book has the potential to change the way you live if you let it, and if you put the words of the Dalai Lama to use in your own life.

I am an activist and recently watched a video on animals that were skinned alive. It troubled me so much I could not get the image out of my mind, and could not stop thinking about how terrible people can be to others. I could not even fathom that this kind of cruelty happened. I read his book hoping to find an answer to how to deal with notions of pain and suffering, and those that commit it, and to calm the horrors that were in my mind regarding the subject. Being a target of the Chinese, the Dalai Lama knows all too well about this subject, and can still keep a positive mind. I strive to become more like that, while never turning a blind eye to the suffering of others. I like the contrast between the writer/interviewer and the Dalai Lama. He represents the thinking of the average person who does not think frequently about the suffering of others on a large scale, and comes up with very good questions to counter the arguments of the Dalai Lama, but in the end, the Dalai Lama's influence is enough to change the writer.

The Art of Happiness by Dalai Lama, Howard C. Cutler
This book was recommended to me by a young friend 4 years after the death of my son. She was right in the recommendation, this book has incredible wisdom to offer in regaining a sense of happiness. The stories and discussions between the Dalai Lama and Howard Cutler are incredibly insightful. Howard Cutler is a man of science, a therepist. His views are changed and enhanced by the discussions, thoughts, and wisdom of the Dalai Lama...and mine were too. This is a book you can read straight through or read a chapter once in a while. Take the time to really think about the ideas, thoughts, and wisdom offered and know that while the Dalai Lama is a Buddist monk, he is asked to apply his wisdom to all sorts of religious and non-religious beliefs that any one of us may carry with us.

OK everybody, let's keep the Dalai Lama in perspective!
All of us agree that the Dalai Lama is one cool dude. His image in the world is one of wisdom, humility, and forgiveness. I like him, too. My take on the book however is that his approach seeks to DENY the problems inside us. Additionally, an unpleasant fact that I can't ignore is that before the Chinese invasion (1959), the Lamas in Tibet ran a complete slave state. (i.e., Buddhism promises a lot, but history shows it doesn't deliver.) I am not saying the Chinese are the good guys - they murdered 1-2 million Tibetans - but let's not confuse weakness with goodness or righteousness. Certainly the terrible events that shaped the DL's life in exile have served to build his character. So, I don't think the Dalai Lama wants us to hold him to TOO high a regard; after all, he even calls himself ... All of us agree that the Dalai Lama is one cool dude.

So, I don't think the Dalai Lama wants us to hold him to TOO high a regard; after all, he even calls himself "a dirty monk". The strength of this book is that he doesn't claim to know all the answers, and he doesn't.

Should be required reading for all humans...
I have read many "self-help" books and books on spirituality, from the most esoteric to those based on Western sciences. This book is the first I have found to lack any of the snobbery that seems inherent in many of these books. The Dalai Lama is a clear and intelligent human being, steeped in the best of what Buddhism has to offer. He delivers his lessons in a consice and matter-of-fact, yet not too presumptuous manner and Dr. Cutler's commentary from the Western mind deepens each lesson to a place easily accessible by the American reader. There is no "Secret" to being happy- it is an art, a dance, and the Dalai Lama reminds readers of all the things we must do within ourselves in order to find that sought after gem- Happiness.

He does not ask that we wear robes or shave our heads, but that we take responsibility for cultivating and nurturing our own happiness. If you have any doubt that you can do that, your doubt will dissipate after reading this beautiful book.
