Inhaltsangabe

Enlightenment doesn’t always come in the form we expect it. It need not be a self-styled guru or a complicated contraption measuring some mysterious quality. Sometimes it’s as close as the chocolate lab bounding happily through the backyard, or the feisty terrier contentedly curled up on one’s lap for a nap. In the foreword to this thoughtful, wonderfully illustrated gift book, Dr. Bernie Siegel says, “Dogs are healers. . . . They seem to have figured out how to live beautifully so much better than we humans have.” Loosely modeled on 1980’s underground classic The Lazy Man’s Guide to Enlightenment, this charming book celebrates the simple wisdom and that special combination of natural earthiness and subtle spirituality that characterizes humankind’s best friend. Distinctive black-and-white dog images by acclaimed photographer Zackary Folk are accompanied by captions of down-to-earth spiritual wisdom “from” the dogs to their often confused “owners.”

CHAPTER 1

Approach your journey with a beginner's mind.

Keep your face to the light and your paws on the ground.

Listening with compassion is as important as having the right words.

When life turns you upside down, be open to new perspectives.

Play often,

and never take yourself too seriously.

Admit to your faults: What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine too.
