#TBT with Lama Marut.

We love Throw Back Thursday here at Beyond Words! It gives us a chance to revisit authors and books that are close to our hearts. Last fall we had the pleasure of talking with A Spiritual Renegade’s Guide to the Good Life author Lama Marut on our weekly show Beyond Words Presents.

For those of you unfamiliar with Lama Marut, he is extensively trained in the spiritual traditions of India and Tibetan Buddhism. He holds a Ph.D. in Comparative Religion and taught for over two decades in the academic world, first at Columbia University and later at the University of California, where he retired as Professor Emeritus in 2004. He lived as a Buddhist monk for eight years and has served for the past fifteen years as a spiritual teacher to students around the world. Lama Marut is currently the Spiritual Director of eight “Middle Way Centers” located in North America, Australia, and Singapore

His new book, Be Nobody comes out June 2014, but in the mean time you can hear a fresh perspective on the questions we all have regarding the quest for happiness on Beyond Words Presents. Watch the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hB-nDbw0oiU.
