Dear Ones,
David Michie’s The Dalai Lama’s Cat blends storytelling, philosophy, and gentle humor to present core principles of Tibetan Buddhism in an accessible, emotionally engaging way. Told from the perspective of a once-neglected kitten rescued by the Dalai Lama, the novel uses the cat’s unique vantage point to explore the nature of happiness, compassion, mindfulness, and interconnectedness.
Starving and pitiful, a mud-smeared kitten is rescued from the slums of New Delhi and transported to a life she could have never imagined. In a beautiful sanctuary overlooking the snow-capped Himalayas, she begins her new life as the Dalai Lama’s cat. Warmhearted, irreverent, and wise, this cat of many names opens a window to the inner sanctum of life in Dharamsala.
A tiny spy observing the constant flow of private meetings between His Holiness and everyone from Hollywood celebrities to philanthropists to self-help authors, the Dalai Lama’s cat provides us with insights on how to find happiness and meaning in a busy, materialistic world. Her story will put a smile on the face of anyone who has been blessed by the kneading paws and bountiful purring of a cat or for those who want a tactile up close experience of what having a cat as a close companion feels like and the wisdom that emanates from that feline source! This book is such an eye-opener, looking through a different point of view in the hologram, that moves away from such a singularly anthropomorphic and egocentric point of view as most humans hold. Come join us to take a joyful dive together into this uplifting and smile-engendering book!
