Publication Year : 2016
The Book of Joy captures an inspiring week-long dialogue between two iconic spiritual leaders, the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, as they discuss how to find joy amidst life’s challenges. Blending their profound wisdom, personal anecdotes, and humor, the book provides practical guidance on cultivating joy, even in times of suffering and uncertainty.
The Book of Joy offers a heartwarming and transformative exploration of how to cultivate joy in a turbulent world. It reminds you that joy is not the absence of struggle but the ability to find light in the midst of darkness. Through their wisdom, humour, and humanity, the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Tutu show that joy is accessible to everyone, regardless of circumstance.
I read this book directly after finishing the Art of Happiness. The interactions between these two leaders was heart warming to read and you don’t need to have religious views to enjoy the messages they share.
