This little book, number two in the series blew me away, just like the first. I am a Harvard student of Tibetan Buddhism, yet I find these theoretically "silly" little books to be some of the most profound & moving Buddhist texts I've read. Mickie does a wonderful job with sense of place. I feel as if I've lived in McLeod Ganj myself! When people in the story meet the Dalai Lama and find tears of joy running down their cheeks, I cry too, remembering how profoundly moving it was to be in his presence among several thousand others at a few teachings I've attended. It felt as if he was smiling and speaking directly to me. Mickie captures that sense of spontaneous, reverent, hopeful happiness just beautifully. Best of all, these stories are like Jatakas stories for the modern age. They make so many Buddhist concepts accessible & easily understandable. I burst into tears so many times as Snow Lion/HHC realized something helpful while I was doing just the same. The things this book says to your Self are timeless, yet modern, and every time I pick it up I am moved to discover it saying just what I needed to hear, just when I needed to hear it. Thank you, David Michie, for a wonderful, accessible, modern addition to the Dharma!
An original, witty, fun ride explaining Buddhism in a way that is not only funny but really CLEAR. I gave it to friends who are total Christians because they still think Buddhists WORSHIP that statue of Buddha! They laughed and enjoyed the ride too. (I'm not Buddhist either...;)The most popular review gives away too many of the authors funny tidbits so I consider these SPOILER ALERTS, and I will NOT do this to you! Just read it, laugh, chuckle and learn too. With a smile on your face:)THIS BOOK MAKES A GREAT GIFT FOR ANYONE STUCK IN THEIR WORLD VIEW TO OPEN UP THE BELIEF BLINDERS A BIT WIDER!Laugher. The BEST way to teach.Thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the others!***There is a 10 person 'wait list' at my local library for this book. CHECK YOURS. If so, then perhaps DONATE this to the local library system where you live so others can have a chance to read it too? Worth a shot!Enjoy!
The Dalai Lama's Cat is an outstanding read! I must say, initially I was not compelled to read this book. In fact, it travelled with me to Arizona and to Missouri with only a few pages read. What happened on the long plane ride home was simply not a coincidence. I fidgeted in my seat, Wi-Fi wasn't offered, my neighbor was drinking heavily, and I couldn't get situated--until I picked up the book and buried my head in the pages. After a few more pages, I was hooked!You might NOT be a cat person, it's okay--don't let the name of this book deter you, and if you are a cat person--rejoice and turn the pages.Wow, advise on happiness and living life in a novel that is filled with stories (within the story). Engaging daily situations that teach from the author's perception of the Dalai Lama's beliefs, or more specifically Buddhism. The book is also a pure example of learning through stories--so pleasant to have those `aha' moments shown in tale versus telling in a non-fiction instructional guide.The tale (tail) begins with a kitten that is saved from the slums of New Delhi. A visual any reader can gain from the trailer of the movie Slumdog Millionaire. Am I shallow to say the hints throughout the book about famous people visiting the Dalai Lama kept me guessing and more than interested? Maybe a little, but I found it fascinating. Sharing the Dalai Lama's teachings within life's moments as seen through the eyes of the cat (who also learns from each happening!) and always on topics the reader can relate to. Although the work is fiction, I believe, the author, David Michie has an understanding of Buddhism, and does a fabulous job of spinning his tale with relevance toward today's times. Bravo! Well done.In the early stages of the book a nun discusses her visit to a prison (this is when I became hooked) and how an inmate had a conversation with her and compared her own living situation with his. Ultimately, the inmate informed the nun, `if it all gets too hard' she could live with them. The nun was astonished that the inmate viewed the conditions in the nunnery harsher than his conditions in jail. And the Dalai Lama made a simple statement, "It's not the circumstances of our lives that make us happy or unhappy but the way we see them." Personally, something I've relearned throughout my life, and a topic that hits home with me when I remember my time in the `chemo' circle and the other folks with me.My own immediate learning experience happened when the plane landed and I wasn't finished with the book! Had I not messed around for the entire first hour of that flight, and just picked up the book and read it--I would have been done, and satisfied. I can relate to HHC when she was taken to another location during the painting and refurbishing of the Dalai Lama's house, she behaved poorly. She hid under the blanket and did not step out of the room for a few days. On the day she finally stepped out--she met her `cat' friend, but was whisked away the following day, having no time to spend with her new friend. HHC identified that she robbed herself of the opportunity to spend time with her new friend--all over her ridiculous self-pity. Three days of sulking could have been spent with her new friend instead of wasted time hiding under the duvet.Do you believe that every living being strives for happiness and wants to avoid all forms of suffering? And the True Cause of happiness is not from any physical external thing? Deep, isn't it? Well I like the way the Dalai Lama's cat handles these topics, and you will too.I'm compelled to share with you what I learned about True Cause, but instead I will leave that as the title of this document and let you read the book, and discover for yourself the true cause of happiness (literally).Lastly, I'm so enamored with this book because of my own personal experience. The content of these pages ring within my soul. And it's so simple!When I was diagnosed with stage IV cancer and watched the pieces of my life fall away I gave in to the process. I had no choice. I had to deal with the cancer (and everything else in my life that fell apart), but I did have a choice about my attitude toward the battle--and ultimately isn't that the only thing you have control of--your own reaction? So I experienced some loss: my career, relationship, homes, finances, career, and for a while--my health. I made up my mind I would beat the cancer, but if for some reason I didn't make it--the time I had left would be wonderful. And that is how I won my battle.Now, two years and seven months later--I have no sign of disease. I'm back in the thick of my life (a different life) and I thank you, David Michie, for reminding me of the importance of love and compassion and sharing with the world the simplicity of Buddhism and the fact that happiness is right here... as my Grandma would say, "Under your nose."
Bought this after borrowing it from the library, so I can read it multiple times. The cat is purrfectly charming, and his caretakers are interesting, with small lessons on life as you read. An introduction to basic Buddhism, with the cat as "Cat"alyst. Rinpoche - precious one - a nick name I will borrow for my own little beast. The writing and story are quite good, and hold my interest. Each chapter is in itself a complete little story, and together, the stories make the book whole. I am recommending this to all my catty friends, and to those that are looking for something meaningful.I also purchased the "Art of Purring" and the "Power of Meow". Both just as good as this one.
