10 WYS

22 Oct 2010 by Geertje, No Comments »

10 WYS: the Wisdom revolution is a book about the 10 biggest themes of our time. Its 10 chapters deal with subjects such as love, pain, our body, suffering in the world, sex and creativity. These great questions are approached from a Buddhist perspective. It’s exactly the non-dogmatic, practical insight that the Buddhist tradition offer that could transform our culture into one that values wisdom and compassion even more than information and self protection.”

For this book I teamed up with my dear friend Lisette Kreischer from Veggie in Pumps to provide each chapter with ecofabulous lifestyle and food-tips to make this Generation Y wisdom even more applicable.

10 WYS: the Wisdom revolution is being published in Holland in November, 2010, and I’m happy to say that it already received enthusiastic reviews from both popular media as well as the Buddhist circles. What is highlighted is its down-to-earth, recognizable and funny style. This is enhanced by the visual aspect of the book –richly illustrated by one of Holland’s most talented young illustrators, Mietze B. teaming up with the fabulous Ilse van Klei.

We are already firmly on the WWW and social communities. Come out and join the Wisdom Revolution through our special website:
