Inner Revolution: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Real Happiness

Inner Revolution: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Real Happiness

by Robert Thurman (Author)

Synopsis

"Inner Revolution" addresses both the history and the practical contemporary uses of Buddhism. With originality and enormous scholarship, Robert Thurman reveals the principles of the movement to celebrate individual happiness, which the Buddha initiated some 2,500 years ago, and shows how to continue it. He spreads the Buddha's message that everyone has the opportunity to become fully, completely happy and he finds hope and fascinating lessons in Tibetan Buddhism, as well as a viable way to change the world.
