al Dalai Lama cuando era un referente internacional y salía a menudo en la TV, pero a partir dese retiró de la vida pública y posiblemente mucha gente no sepa quién es, una pena.
Este libro es una entrevista donde el Dalai Lama pone de manifiesto la importancia de la ética para vivir en un mundo justo, por encima de la religión algo que ningún otro líder religioso se atrevería a defender porque iría en contra de sus intereses, pero es que el Dalai Lama no de este mundo, es de un mundo justo que nunca conoceremos.
Leí este libro porque lo descargué gratis en el Kindle, Realmente conocía muy poco sobre el Dalái Lama, sólo que era una figura importante relacionada con el Budismo.
Además de su propuesta por una ética secular, lo más interesante de este libro fue conocer un poco sobre la situación actual del Tíbet.
Nunca había pensado en que en esa región se lleva a cabo una lucha entre completos opuestos por un lado está uno de los más grandes centros espirituales del planeta y por otro lado está China, el país más materialista del mundo.
Tal vez no le presté mucha atención al contexto histórico de aquella película con Brad Pitt, Tendré que verla otra vez un día de éstos y leer más textos del Dalái Lama, Repetitivo e óbvio. Apesar de concordar com tudo que é explanado no livreto, a edição foi extremamente mal formulada, o conteúdo se repete inúmeras vezes ao longo do texto e não há nenhum elemento de coesão ligando as ideias.
Não conheço o trabalho do jornalista alemão Franz Alt, mas se suas entrevistas são como a transcrita nesta edição, faltalhe harmonia e linearidade.
NOTA: edição em português europeu, Der Appell des Dalai Lama an die Welt: Ethik ist wichtiger als Religion
Heute gibt es für euch eine Kurzrezension zu dem SpiegelBestseller: Ethik ist wichtiger als Religion.
Wenn so etwas ein religiöser Führer sagt, wird man natürlich im ersten Moment stutzig und man ist neugierig, was ihn zu einer solchen Aussage bewogen haben könnte.
So kaufte ich mir das Buch und wollte überrascht werden von neuen und innovativen Ideen, Leider war die säkulare Ethik, die der Dalai Lama in diesem Buch vorstellt, nicht ganz so überzeugend,
Sie beruht auf den Grundwerten der Menschlichkeit, Ja, es ist ein sehr wichtiger Appell, allerdings hätte man diesen nicht aufSeiten stecken müssen,
Das Buch besteht aus

Über den Autor
Der Appell des Dalai Lama nimmt also in dem Buch nur recht wenig Platz ein.
Das würde im Grunde auch nicht schlimm sein, wenn das Interview nicht alles wiederholen würde, Und zwar im gleichen Wortlaut!
Zudem wiederholen sich auch im Interview viele Sachen, Geduld konnte ich zum Beispiel nach dem Buch wirklich nicht mehr hören und auch nicht Abrüstung,
Ja, das Buch und der Dalai Lama sprechen sehr wichtige Sachen an, allerdings hätte für mich das Interview nicht mehr zwingend mit rein gemusst.
Das Vorwort und der Appell reichen meiner Meinung nach aus, Die Informationen über den Dalai Lama am Ende des Buches sind jedoch wieder sehr interessant,
Allerdings besteht das Buch hauptsächlich aus dem Interview, also muss man sich fragen, ob ein solches Buch nötig gewesen ist.
Aus rein objektiver Sicht also sicherlich nicht, allerdings sollte die Botschaft gehört werden, Wenn dafür ein Buch nötig ist und keine schriftliche Rede reicht, dann finde ich das durchaus sinnvoll,
Ich bin also zwiegespalten, bereuen tue ich es allerdings nicht,
On point questions a great summary of the current state of the world and how our interconnectedness can ensure our peaceful coexistence and be a light for the future.
Der Dalai Lama ist ein unglaublich kluger, starker und gütiger Mann, Außerdem ist er ein religiöser Vertreter, dem ich vorbehaltlos vertraue Genau genommen der Einzige, da ich Atheistin bin und religiösen Vertretern relativ selten aufmerksam begegne.
. . Ausgenommen der Papst oder andere medienwirksame Personen, Seinen Appell kann ich nur unterstützen: Ethik IST wichtiger als Religion,
Grade auch durch den überschauberen Umfang des Appells, sollte jeder ihn gelesen haben, Ich bin überzeugt, dass die Denkweise des Dalai Lama sehr hilfreich dabei ist, sich in unserer aktuellen Welt und Politik zu positionieren.
Este libro realmente te muestra la forma de pensar de uno de los más grandes guías espirituales, me gusta el tema referente a la ética secular y la manera en la que lo aborda, puede parecer incoherente, pero habla del fanatismo religioso y como este afecta al mundo, lectura muy recomendada.
This is a very short book, essentially one transcript of an interview and a few press articles, concerning the Dalai Lamas thoughts following the terrorist attack against the editorial staff of Charlie Hebdo in Paris in.
Sadly, that event is not discussed other than being mentioned as a source of inspiration, The Dalai Lamas views on satire would have been interesting,
The elements of the collection are somewhat repetitive, which is a shame, and much of the interview is given over to the standard questions concerning the political situation in Tibet.
This is poor editing by the journalist curating the collection,
Nevertheless, the Dalai Lamas wisdom shines through, He holds that secular ethics are more fundamental, more universal, and more natural to all humanity than religions, The worlds faiths have their purposes, but peace within each individual, between individuals, between faiths nations and races, and between humanity and the environment, can only come from secular ethics, which is the realisation that more unites us than divides.
Ethics comprise positivity, accountability, and more than anything else compassion and cooperation, none of which arise solely from religions but from the perception of common humanity that is inherent in all.
Morals are not the exclusive domain of religions, Hence ethics are more important than religions, which tend to exclude through claiming a monopoly on truth, and which are often corrupted for personal interests.
As an atheist with an international outlook I could not agree more, This is a simple but powerful rallying cry for peace and progress,
I have read this book in French, I believe it was originally produced in German, but translated into all major languages, This was my first contact with the present Dalai Lama, and I absolutely loved it,
His words are so pure and clever, and he seems like such an incredible human being, I can't wait to read more things related to him, Such an inspiration. Short book with a big impact in the world, The interview format of this book, let the reader to understand the true vision and actions of the Dalai Lama.
How he works and what he thinks as ayear old monk that held power from hisyears old untill hisyears in political power the first ever Dalai Lama to tranfer his power and become "just a monk".
He is for many an illuminated, a god, A leitura em si não é das melhores, mas ouvir o que Dalai Lama tem a dizer é sempre muito bem satisfatório, mesmo que não muito aprofundado.
for content/message.
The only thing I've have liked from this very slim book is more detail on the Dalai Lama's ideas, as I've been seeing a dire need for exactly this very thing for aboutyears now.
A lived spiritualityethic that goes beyond individual religions and their very human interpretations/interpreters,
The Dalai Lama outlines his thoughts in their essence in this book, but that's all, Certainly, he's though about them more than what is in here, He offers no examples, only a few metaphors, But, then again, Buddhism tends to the short, pregnant statement and not to long and detailed monologues, I greatly appreciated his mixture of spirituality and science and the way he's shifted the abstract notion of universal love or the Christian notion of "love thy neighbour as thyself" into something tangible and practical.
Unlike other reviewers, I wasn't bothered in the least by the repetitions of content or phrasing in the interview that makes up the middle of this book.
It's normal to have thought of a good way to phrase something and always phrase it that way, Seeing those phrases again in a conversational train of thought as opposed to an essay format was helpful, I found, and deepened my understanding of the topic.
A ética é mais importante que a religião, Quando nascemos não pertencemos a uma religião específica, Mas a ética é inata em nós, We are blessed to be living during the same time period as The Dalai Lama, This short interview is being given away for free, It is clear that he believes in his message, More importantly, he has the evidence to back it up,
Take the time to read the book, Take the time to think about it, Take the time to live it, .
