Produktbeschreibung
In a world that feels increasingly dark and dangerous, how do we find a bright spot? How do we navigate the violence, war, racism, hate, and sexism that surround us? In Are You Kindful?,Bhante Saranapala-also known as the Urban Buddhist Monk- shows us a way out of the negativity and into a kinder, more positive world. Kindfulness is the radical act of being both kind and mindful. By combining these two qualities, we are able to bring good to the world. In the pages of this book, you will learn about the concept of kindfulness and how its presence can have widereaching impacts. But what makes this book even more valuable is the practical application of this concept. You will first learn how to apply kindfulness toward yourself. As Bhante explains, "If you are not happy, calm, and kind, the people around you cannot be happy, calm, and kind." Once you can find grace within yourself, you will be ready to find it in others. And so, you will learn how to spread kindfulness beyond yourself and out into the world. A simple shift in perspective can be revolutionary. This book is not a religious text. Though Buddhist, Bhante does not address the precepts of Buddhism. Rather, he addresses the principles of what it is to be a kind and good human being. These are lessons that will last a lifetime. These are lessons that can change the world.
