1 Inner Revolution: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Real Happiness Thurman, Robert
Like New. 
Hardcover. 1st edition hardcover with dustjacket 1998 Riverhead Books. Superclean; no marks; pages bright; binding tight. Only light store shelfwear to jacket. Gift-giving condition. 322 pages. Foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Language: English. 'Thurman, author of Essential Tibetan Buddhism (1996), was the first Westerner to be ordained in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. He briefly describes his studies in India under the Dalai Lama's direction in the mid-1960s and his subsequent realization that without a Tibetan Buddhist community, he could not be a monk in the U.S. So he chose the next best thing, academia, and became a renowned Buddhist scholar. He is now convinced that we are entering a time of spiritual growth and that Buddhism is integral to this movement toward enlightenment. As he expounds on this observation, he places Buddhist thought firmly within historical and scientific contexts, explaining that Buddhism is not a religion but a scientific elucidation of causation and that learning to be free from self-obsession and negative emotions is the first step in a spiritual awakening. Thurman's lucid teachings infuse the concepts of liberty and happiness with cosmic significance and do much to illuminate the reasons for Buddhism's blooming in the West.'--Donna Seaman, Booklist.
