El Dalai Lama

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro El Dalai Lama

The first authorized biography of the Dalai Lama - an alternately inspiring and shocking story - of an acclaimed Tibetan scholar, with privileged access to the subject of his book. The Dalai Lama's message of peace and compassion resonates with people of all faiths and those of no faith. However, due to all his fame around the world, he is often evasive. Alexander Norman - an acclaimed Oxford-trained scholar of Tibetan history - offers the definitive biography, unique and unforgettable. The Dalai Lama recounts an incredible odyssey from a remote Tibetan village to his global position as spiritual and political leader of one of the deepest and most complex cultural traditions in the world. Norman reveals that although the Dalai Lama has never been comfortable with his political situation, he has been a shrewd player - for a time backed by the CIA - that has moved amid widespread violence, including standing at the center of a dangerous schism in Buddhism. However, even more surprising than the action politics -Norman convinces us-, is the extraordinary spiritual practice of the Dalai Lama, based on magic, revelation, and prophecy, the details of which are illuminated for the first time in this book. A revealing life story of one of our most radical, charismatic and beloved world leaders of our epoch.

Libro Fragments détachés de l'oubli

On ne lira pas ici des « mémoires ». Pour écrire, au soir de sa vie, des mémoires, il faut avoir pris des notes, au jour le jour. Ce n’est pas mon cas et je le regrette. Ce que j’ai essayé de faire, c’est de retrouver, par des plongées dans le souvenir, les instants importants de ma vie. Entre deux épisodes il y aura souvent de longues plages de silence. Je ne sais pas si dans ces espaces de temps inexplorés il ne s’est pas passé quelque chose de marquant, je l’ai oublié. On ne trouvera donc pas dans ces pages le récit continu de ma vie mais des fragments détachés de...

Asunto de familia (A Private Family Matter)

Libro Asunto de familia (A Private Family Matter)

"This is a story about how I was saved by love at a time when most people considered me beyond rescue," begins Victor Rivas Rivers in this powerful chronicle of how he escaped the war zone of domestic violence -- too often regarded as a "private family matter" -- and went on to become a good man, a film star, and a prominent activist. The Cuban-born author begins by recalling when he was kidnapped, along with three of his siblings, by his own father, who abandoned Victor's pregnant mother and took the children on a cross-country hell-ride that nearly ended in a fatal collision. This journey...

Isaiah Berlin

Libro Isaiah Berlin

Isaiah Berlin nunca quiso escribir su autobiografia -'No me considero un terna de reflexion lo suficientemente importante o interesante'-, dijo en una ocasion. Pero para muchos era justamente lo contrario: no solo era uno de los principales filosofos liberales de este siglo, sino que su propia vida fue una vivida y apasionante cronica de nuestro tiempo.A lo largo de su vida, Berlin (1909-1997), formado en tres grandes tradiciones - rusa, judia y britanica - fue testigo de las principales corrientes del siglo. Nacido en Riga (Letonia) en 1909, vivio de nino la revolucion rusa en San...
