Words of inspiration from one of the world's most beloved Spiritual Leaders.

Stages of Meditation is a landmark work on the subject of meditation.

His Holiness offers his highly practical views on the subject: how to do it, the various different procedures and approaches we can take, what we and others may gain from it.

This impressive and stimulating book will not only bring the Dalai Lama - one of the world's most popular and pragmatic spiritual leaders - to a huge new audience but, because so many people round the globe are now practicing meditation, from a basis of religions faith or none, this is a work which will doubtless be in print for many years to come.

An unprecedented event: a beloved world religious leader proposes a way to lead an ethical, happy, and spiritual life, beyond religion and offers a program of mental training for cultivating key human values.
