Tibetan Buddhism

To turn this tide, Lama Tsomo has created the latest addition to her Ancient Wisdom for Our Times series: Deepening Wisdom, Deepening Connection. Building on the ideas and practices in the first two books—Why Bother: An Introduction and Wisdom Compassion (Starting with Yourself)—this new volume actively engages listeners, expanding our understanding and guiding our practice in the several key areas.

Von der Wiedergeburt der Seele. Der Dokumentarfilmer und Bestsellerautor Clemens Kuby hat vielfältige Belege gesammelt, die das Konzept der Reinkarnation begreiflich machen.
