Desmond Tutu Livres

'I want to wish all of you joy-because there is no better gift. Two spiritual masters, the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, share their wisdom in this uplifting book. I promise you, it's the best $26 you can spend.' Oprah Winfrey Nobel Peace Prize Laureates His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu have survived more than fifty years of exile and the soul-crushing violence of oppression. Despite their hardships - or, as they would say, because of them - they are two of the most joyful people on the planet. In April 2015, Archbishop Tutu travelled to the Dalai Lama's home in Dharamsala, India, to celebrate His Holiness's eightieth birthday and to create this book as a gift for others. They looked back on their long lives to answer a single burning question: how do we find joy in the face of life's inevitable suffering? They traded intimate stories, teased each other continually, and shared their spiritual practices. By the end of a week filled with laughter and punctuated with tears, these two global heroes had stared into the abyss and despair of our times and revealed how to live a life brimming with joy. This book offers us a rare opportunity to experience their astonishing and unprecedented week together, from the first embrace to the final goodbye.

Každým odpustením, či už malým alebo veľkým, získavame zdravie. Odpustením prinášame mier sebe aj celému svetu. Arcibiskup Desmond Tutu, držiteľ Nobelovej ceny, sa stal svedkom najhorších zločinov, aké sú ľudia schopní spáchať. Preto všade kam ide, mu ľudia kladú rovnakú otázku. Jeho odpoveďou je táto kniha, ktorú napísal spolu so svojou dcérou Mpho, reverendkou anglikánskej cirkvi. Vo svojej knihe načrtli jednoduché, avšak veľmi hlboké pravdy o zmysle odpúšťania; o tom, ako to celé funguje; prečo každý z nás potrebuje vedieť, ako odpúšťať a prijať odpustenie a prečo je odpúšťanie najväčším darom, ktorý si môžeme dať, keď nám niekto ublíži. Akt odpúšťania vysvetľujú v štyroch krokoch – vyrozprávanie príbehu, pomenovanie bolesti, odpustenie a obnovenie alebo ukončenie vzťahu. Kniha je doplnená o meditácie, cvičenia a modlitby, ktoré budú čitateľov po celý čas usmerňovať správnym smerom. Táto kniha nám nielen prináša spôsob, ako nájsť cestu k uzdravovaniu seba samých, ale pomáha nám znovunadobudnúť rovnováhu tela, mysle aj ducha.
