By Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. In Love With The World by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche shares how his near-death experience changed his life.

What Guadalupe Nettel Says: “A very beautiful memoir written by a Tibetan lama who decides to leave the comfort of his monastery, where he is well-cared for, to go begging and meditating in India, like the ancient ascetics or Buddha himself. Yongey recounts that he was on the verge of dying from intoxication, and how over a couple of days, that experience completely transformed his way of seeing the world. Ultimately, it’s a book that makes us love life.” 

What They Say: “Generous, beautiful, and essential” – George Saunders
