«Der Weg zum sinnvollen Leben» is the Dalai Lama's spirituality book, published by Herder Verlag GmbH in paperback (191 pages, in German).
The Dalai Lama invites readers to become familiar with death and not be fooled by the idea of permanence: since the moment of dying is uncertain, it is advisable to meditate on one's own life and not waste it on procrastination. The book argues that taming the mind and accepting the end allows one to live the present fully. The volume, subtitled «Das Buch vom Leben und Sterben», is edited by Jeffrey Hopkins.
The original title of the work is «Advice on Dying: And Living a Better Life», originally published in 2002. This German edition from the Herder spektrum collection appeared in 2006.
For readers interested in Tibetan Buddhism, Eastern philosophy and spirituality, as well as reflection on death and the meaning of life.
The 5th Dalai Lama, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso (1617–1682) was recognized as the 5th Dalai Lama, and he became the first Dalai Lama to hold both Tibet's political and spiritual leadership roles.
