商品描述

The memoirs of renowned Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard and his extraordinary journey toward inner freedom and compassion in action.

Matthieu Ricard began his spiritual transformation at the age of twenty-one, in Darjeeling, India, when he met Tibetan teacher Kangyur Rinpoche, who deeply impressed the young man with his extraordinary quality of being. In Notebooks of a Wandering Monk, Ricard tells the simple yet extraordinary story of his journey and the remarkable men and women who inspired him along the way, including Kangyur Rinpoche, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, and the fourteenth Dalai Lama, as well as great luminaries such as Desmond Tutu, Jane Goodall, and a number of leading scientists.

Growing up, Ricard, the son of philosopher Jean-François Revel and artist Yahne Le Toumelin, regularly found himself in the company of intellectuals and artists such as Luis Buñuel, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Igor Stravinsky. Young Ricard loved nature, classical music, and science and dreamed of unlocking the mysteries of molecular biology. But, six years after meeting Kangyur Rinpoche, Ricard gave up a promising career in genetics to pursue a meditative life in the remote Himalayas. While spending half a century in India, Bhutan, and Nepal, he visited Tibet more than twenty times and spent years publishing rare Tibetan texts and photographing his spiritual teachers and the world in which they lived.

Elegantly translated by Jesse Browner and accompanied by more than fifty full-color photographs, some of which are Ricard's own, Notebooks of a Wandering Monk charts Ricard's lifelong path to wisdom and compassion. This candid and reflective memoir will inspire all readers, wherever they may be on their own journey to a meaningful and well-lived life.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

著名佛教僧侶馬修·里卡爾(Matthieu Ricard)的回憶錄,講述了他通往內心自由與行動中的慈悲的非凡旅程。

馬修·里卡爾在二十一歲時於印度達賴靈(Darjeeling)開始了他的精神轉變,當時他遇見了西藏老師康久爾·仁波切(Kangyur Rinpoche),這位老師以其非凡的存在感深深打動了這位年輕人。在《流浪僧的筆記》(Notebooks of a Wandering Monk)中,里卡爾講述了他簡單卻非凡的旅程,以及在此過程中啟發他的傑出男女,包括康久爾·仁波切、迪爾戈·堪布仁波切(Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche)和第十四世達賴喇嘛,還有德斯蒙德·圖圖(Desmond Tutu)、珍·古道爾(Jane Goodall)等偉大人物,以及多位領先的科學家。

里卡爾的成長背景是哲學家讓-弗朗索瓦·雷維(Jean-François Revel)和藝術家雅恩·勒·圖梅蘭(Yahne Le Toumelin)的兒子,他經常與路易斯·布努埃爾(Luis Buñuel)、亨利·卡蒂埃-布列松(Henri Cartier-Bresson)和伊戈爾·斯特拉文斯基(Igor Stravinsky)等知識分子和藝術家為伍。年輕的里卡爾熱愛大自然、古典音樂和科學,夢想揭開分子生物學的奧秘。然而,在遇見康久爾·仁波切六年後,里卡爾放棄了有前途的遺傳學職業,選擇在偏遠的喜馬拉雅山追求冥想生活。在印度、不丹和尼泊爾度過了半個世紀的時間,他多次前往西藏,並花了數年時間出版稀有的西藏文獻,拍攝他的精神導師及其所生活的世界。

《流浪僧的筆記》由傑西·布朗納(Jesse Browner)優雅翻譯,並附有五十多幅全彩照片,其中一些是里卡爾自己的作品,該書描繪了里卡爾一生追求智慧與慈悲的道路。這本坦誠而深思的回憶錄將激勵所有讀者,無論他們在追尋有意義且充實生活的旅程中身處何地。
