Zorgzaamheid is het medicijn dat wij en de wereld om ons heen dringend nodig hebben. Dat is de boodschap van Tibetaans boeddhistisch leraar Tarthang Tulku. Begin dit jaar verscheen de Nederlandse vertaling van zijn nieuwste boek: Caring.
The times we live in are particularly challenging. While some people today have an abundance of material prosperity, almost everyone is poor when it comes to inner resources. Anxiety, loneliness, guilt, and frustration dominate the emotional landscape. There is a global shortage of joy, inner peace, and the kind of deep caring for self and others that heals the heart and inspires creative action. How sad this is! For at the very heart of being is the open instant, a boundless source of Great Love.
