Awful
Revisado: 03-28-16
I can't believe they made a series out of this. Way too trite. I have no idea why it was set in the future - that added nothing to the story. And the romance and the tough cop bit were just silly. Everyone was a caricature instead of a real person. Just awful.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 259
As the holidays draw near in Caerphilly, Mother volunteers to take part in a big Christmas-themed decorator show house - each room of a temporarily untenanted house is decorated to the hilt by a different decorator for the public to tour. Of course, Mother insists that Meg pitch in with the organization, and she finds herself surrounded by flamboyant personalities with massive egos clashing and feeling their professional reputations are at stake.

Nice Christmas story

I really enjoy this series. I enjoy the intertwining of small town life with a mystery. This story was no exception.

Tibetan Buddhist master Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse, one of the most creative and innovative lamas teaching today, throws down the gauntlet to the Buddhist world, challenging common misconceptions, stereotypes, and fantasies. With wit and irony, Khysentse urges readers to move beyond the superficial trappings of Buddhism - beyond the romance with beads, incense, or exotic robes - straight to the heart of what the Buddha taught.

Better than the usual Buddhism books
Revisado: 07-05-15
I will have to work on really understanding all the concepts but I appreciated hearing about core Buddhism concepts.

Fine, but not what I was expecting
Revisado: 02-13-12
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I enjoyed this book. Some of the stories I found interesting and thought-provoking. But it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. It was in essence readings from either personal diaries of the enlightened person themselves or from someone close to them. It spans a number of centuries, and it covers people I hadn't heard of before (which I would say was a positive factor).
For me (and this might be a personal thing) I felt very removed from the people being portrayed. I would love to have been able to ask questions of these people, but most didn't have as a goal teaching or enlightening others. So it was sort of like being an observer of a very different group of people that you didn't really have a way of connecting with.
That said, it did make me think, and I found the stories of some of these people amazing. So overall I'm glad I listened to it.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
Almost every individual story had an interesting aspect. I personally liked the story of the man who figured out that he was happiest when he loved, so he started working really hard on loving everyone, including his enemies. I'm not sure I buy that he also figured out that all actions seemed to stem from his own thoughts, so he was then able to control what happened through his own thoughts. I also had trouble following the poems of the guy from India, although I recognize that they were beautiful poems.
Did Mystics, Masters, Saints, and Sages inspire you to do anything?
I'm not sure it inspired me to do anything, although parts did make me think.
