Kurzbeschreibung
Matthieu Ricard, a photographer and Buddhist monk, recently spent one year in retreat at the Pema Osel Hermitage (the place of the lotus of light) near Kathmandu. Surrounded by spectacular scenery, nestled between lush valleys and the towering Himalayas, Matthieu meditated daily, waiting for the light that illuminates the path to awakening. Each day from his sublime viewpoint, he contemplated the different subtleties of light, at morning, before dusk and at evening. At the rhythm of one image per week, he has thus immortalized the magnificent landscapes surrounding him. These photographs, taken from the hermitage's terrace and surroundings, are the fruit of this long 'wait without waiting', and of the elation of bearing witness to nature's harmony mixing intimately with the peacefulness of meditation.

A bit of a disappointment
20. September 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Anyone familiar with 'Buddhist Himalayas' (Mathieu Ricard's and Olivier and Danielle Follmi's absolutely outstanding book of photography) will be disappointed by 'Motionless Journey.'
The photography, the printing, and the written content of 'Motionless Journey' are all decidedly sub-standard when compared to 'Buddhist Himalayas'.
Compared to 'Motionless Journey' ($45; 70 illustrations, about 160 pages), 'Buddhist Himalayas' ($55; 140 illustrations, 424 pages) is a bargain. Compared to almost any photographic book, 'Buddhist Himalayas' is a bargain. And a delight, page after page after page.
I bought 'Motionless Journey,' sight unseen, because of 'Buddhist Himalayas.'
As you've probably gathered, it was a bit of a disappointment.

Wonderful!
14. Mai 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I have always enjoyed Matthieu Ricard's photography. This book gives a visual taste of what he must have experienced while on retreat in the Himalayas. It is a beautiful book to take time with. It was also nice to know that Matthieu Ricard's share of the proceeds are entirely donated to various humanitarian projects in Tibet, Nepal, India and Bhutan. May his life and practice continue to be of benefit to all.

Meditation on each page
12. Oktober 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
After I liked so much "Tibet an inner journey" by Matthieu Ricard, I bought that book. What a wonderful book. While the photos in "Tibet" tell the story of a journey thru Ricard's wonderful and sensitive camera's lens. "Motionless Journey" tells a story of motionless journey. Great mountains, clouds, birds and light/dark and color games. Highly recommended. Just look at the photos and feel it. Enjoy
