As she travels alone across Asia, the path of a young French woman of 30 years old crosses by chance with that of a singular religious community, tiny and composed exclusively of women. These women live in Puntsokling: one of the ten Buddhist nunneries totally deprived of resources in Zanskar, a valley on the edge of the Himalayas, in the northwest of India, st ill isolated from the rest of the country by its inhosp itable geography. This encounter at the end of the world will change the course of her life and, without a doubt, that of the nuns. A revelation and a long journey, both huMayn and sp iritual.

The selected teachings are from the Buddha himself, Nagarjuna, Guru Rinpoche, Atisha, Shantideva, and Asanga; the great masters of the past, Thogme Zangpo, the Fifth Dalai Lama, Milarepa, Longchenpa, and Sakya Pandita; and contemporary masters, including the Fourteenth Dalai Lama and Mingyur Rinpoche.

Goliarda Sapienza''s The Art of Joy was written over a nine year span, from 1967 to 1976. At the time of her death in 1996, Sapienza had published nothing in a decade, having been unable to find a publisher for what was to become her most celebrated work, due to its perceived immorality. One publisher''s rejection letter exclaimed: ''It''s a pile of iniquity.'' The manuscript lay for decades in a chest finally being proclaimed a "forgotten masterpiece" when it was eventually published in 2005. This epic Sicilian novel, which begins in the year 1900 and follows its main character, Modesta, through nearly the entire span of the 20th century, is at once a coming-of-age novel, a tale of sexual adventure and discovery, a fictional autobiography, and a sketch of Italy''s moral, political and social past. Born in a small Sicilian village and orphaned at age nine, Modesta spends her childhood in a convent raised by nuns.Through sheer cunning, she manages to escape, and eventually becomes a princess. Sensual, proud, and determined, Modesta wants to discover the infinite richness of life and sets about destroying all social barriers that impede her quest for the fulfilment of her desires.

A timeless tale of redemption and the spirit of Christmas A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens' beloved novella, captures the essence of the festive season and the transformative power of kindness and compassion.

This transformative book looks at one of the most undervalued aspects of childhood, joy. Using the latest neuroscience and biochemistry this book shows that joy, far from being an abstract concept, is one of the key motivators for every aspect of learning and development throughout childhood and something we ignore at our peril. The book gives concrete strategies for increasing the levels of joy in our children and highlights the catastrophic damage that a decline in joy can cause in our children especially in a post pandemic world. Suitable for anyone who works with children, this book puts forward a compelling argument that Joy is profoundly important for all of our children and can fundamentally help our children to thrive. Warning - may contain evil clowns!

Twelfth Night is one of the most popular of Shakespeare''s plays in the modern theatre, and this edition places particular emphasis on its theatrical qualities throughout. Peopled with lovers misled either by disguises or their own natures, it combines lyrical melancholy with broad comedy. The introduction analyses its many views of love and the juxtaposition of joy and melancholy, while the detailed commentary pays particular attention to its linguistic subtleties. Music is particularly important in Twelfth Night, and this is the only modern edition to offer material for all the music required in a performance. James Walker has re-edited the existing music from the original sources, and where noe exists has composed settings compatible with the surviving originals. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Young Ricard loved nature, classical music, and science and dreamed of unlocking the mysteries of molecular biology.

The concern for the well-being of others could be the saving grace of the 21st century. Matthieu Ricard''s Altruism, an erudite, brilliantly ranging synthesis of philosophy, psychology and ages old wisdom, is a radical call to kindness, which has the potential as a new global movement to answer the biggest problems of our time: the economy in the short term, life satisfaction in the mid-term, and the environment in the long term. As the faultlines of inequality and nationalism leave us ever more divided, Ricard challenges us to be better people - and in the process, make the world a better place.

Matthieu Ricard, žijící střídavě v klášteře Žečhen v Nepálu a ve Francii, je pova­žovaný za jednoho z největších znalců buddhismu v Evropě. Po dlouholeté výzkumné praxi v oblasti buněčné a molekulární genetiky se vydal na cestu buddhistického mnicha. Již více než třicet let se pohybuje mezi velkými duchovními mistry v Himálaji, působí jako dalajlámův tlumočník, překladatel a vydavatel. V Knize o štěstí, která byla přeložena do více než deseti světových jazyků, se věnuje otázce, která je stará jako lidstvo samo: co je štěstí a jakými prostředky jej lze dosáhnout.

Meditace je jedním z nejúčinnějších a nejosvědčenějších způsobů, jak poznat svou vlastní podstatu, lépe porozumět sobě samému a nalézt klid, harmonii a radost. Přestože se i ti největší mudrci učí meditovat po celý život, věnujeme-li meditaci trochu času každý den, dokážeme změnit svůj pohled na nás samé a na svět kolem nás. To je také smyslem tohoto přístupně napsaného pojednání, které je praktickým úvodem do meditace a zároveň duchovním a filozofickým průvodcem. Matthieu Ricard zasvěceně představuje - jak mu umožňuje jeho přímá zkušenost se západní i buddhistickou kulturou, důkladná znalost posvátných textů a styk s duchovními mistry - univerzální povahu meditace, která se zakládá na rozvoji dobrých lidských vlastností, altruistické lásce a soucitu. Ukazuje také, jak právě v naší individualistické a materialistické spo­lečnosti může být meditace prospěšná každému z nás, protože nám pomáhá objevit a rozvíjet naše nejhlubší aspirace.

Život a učení toulavého jógina, učence a básníka Patrula Rinpočheho - vysoce uznávaného tibetského buddhistického mistra meditace z 19. století - v příbězích, které shromáždil a přeložil francouzský buddhistický mnich Matthieu Ricard. Ten příběhy postupně sbíral po více než třicet let na základě osobních vyprávění velkých učitelů současnosti i z písemných zdrojů. Patrulův životní příběh odhaluje ryzí charakter vysoce realizovaného mistra, který předává dharmu ve všem, co dělá, a který učí prosté kočovníky i významné lamy často nekonvenčním, někdy až humorným způsobem, vždy však s neúprosnou autentičností.
