Laurence G. Boldt Knihy

Vom Reichtum. der uns glücklich macht Laurence G. Boldt lädt dazu ein, sich wieder mehr wesentlichen Werten und Quellen zu öffnen, aus denen jede Art von Fülle hervorgeht. Materielle Fülle ist hier jedoch nicht das Hauptziel. Sie ist nur das natürliche Nebenprodukt einer tieferen seelischen Fülle, die wir innerlich spüren, und die sich in allen Bereichen unseres äußeren Lebens widerspiegelt. Der Autor versteht es in beeindruckender Weise, die tiefgründigen Einsichten alter taoistischer Meister auf die Erfordernisse der heutigen Zeit anzuwenden. Er konfrontiert uns mit der Tatsache, dass immer mehr Menschen den Kontakt zur Natur, zu ihren spirituellen Wurzeln und daher zu ihrer Würde und ihrem sozialen Umfeld verlieren.

Through his integration of Eastern philosophy and practical advice, Laurence G. Boldt sought to help readers find personal satisfaction in their work and personal lives. In this book he applies those principles to the subject of abundance.

If, as the I Ching says, thoughts are spirits, then this collection of highly distilled thoughts from history's greatest philosophers and religious figures will certainly put you in good spirits. Laurence Boldt has long made a practice of applying Zen principles to everyday life. Here he applies wisdom from all corners of the world to twenty-five aspects, or qualities, associated with the Zen tradition. The result is a soup of the most hearty and wholesome kind, well-seasoned with age, and filled with delicious surprises: "Where your talents and the needs of the world cross, thence lies your vocation." —Aristotle "A man with outward courage dares to die: A man with inward courage dares to live." —Lao Tzu You'll also find Flip Wilson on living in the moment; Will Rogers on the beginner's mind; Helen Keller on courage; Chekhov on self-confidence; Colette on joy. Each chapter includes an entertaining and informative essay that explains the principle and its application to Zen wisdom. The rest is up to you. Read it in one gulp or savor each morsel. Either way, Zen Soup is sure to whet your spiritual appetite as it nourishes your soul.
