About this deal

Said Gary: “I’ve taught meditation for years and a lot of the literature around it can be very academic. I have read the first book but I think I enjoyed this one even more because of the new characters (who wouldn't love a scraggy cat claiming this life to be his ninth and absolute last? A story written by one of the UK’s leading meditation teachers from his home in County Durham is capturing the hearts and spiritual minds of dog lovers across the globe. The charming story of The Enlightened Spaniel unfolds as Indi, the narrator, and Ella set off on a journey to learn about the reason their ‘dad’ meditates. Supported by their trusted companion The Bookshelf, and guided by an unwavering belief in the teachings of the Buddha, they undertake to discover the truth surrounding the reincarnation of the Buddha’s dog.

The Enlightened Spaniel is a wise tale, filled with insights and humour, that celebrates the connection between all things that reside on Planet Earth. The Enlightened Spaniel – The Cat with One Life Left is a charming story that winds its way down a path filled with ancient wisdom, humour, and compassion for all living beings. Assisted by a host of sentient beings both human and otherwise our spaniels traverse the countryside in a journey filled with ancient wisdom, humour, and compassion for all living beings. I hope people smile when they read it and look to learn from it and incorporate meditation into their daily lives. His first book Living Mindfully: Discovering Authenticity Through Mindfulness Coaching is based on teaching mindfulness to over 5,000 clients and was published in 2017.The journey is a challenging one, but is held together by Half-Sister’s wicked sense of humour and a desire to enter into spaniel folklore. Widely known for his conversation pieces and animated drawings commissioned to record events, he is also an accomplished portrait painter. Toby Ward attended the City and Guilds of London Art School, where he won the Richard Ford Travel Award. He can often be seen out walking with his two springer spaniels, if they are not meditating or studying the Buddha’s teachings that is. He founded one of the UK’s leading organisations delivering mindfulness services, and has a personal meditation practice spanning 30 years.

Every bit as good as book one and leaves me craving for more interaction with these wonderfully flashed out characters. Half-sister deals with these issues with such compassion and guides the others through meditation techniques and the teachings of Buddha in such a sublime way that you totally believe this is actually happening!A long-standing interest in all matters relating to Tibet has led to his appointment as trustee of a charity working to assist the Tibetan people.

I love the concept that there is a 99% probability that Half-sister is the reincarnation of Right Nuisance and Amara had been reincarnated several times with the past wisdoms of his time with Indian gurus and the Dalia Lama! The conclusion of their quest hinges on the discovery of an ancient stone and the transcription of its mysterious markings. Our two intrepid spaniels, guided by their unwavering belief in the Buddha’s teachings, undertake to discover the truth. Gary’s book has been illustrated by Toby Ward, who is widely known for his animated drawings commissioned to record events, such as President Clinton’s visit to Oxford and the work of the UN Peace Keeping Force in Bosnia. After reading a book by the Dalai Lama an interest in meditation and Tibet was born which continues until this day.

A long-standing interest in all matters relating toTibet has led to his appointment as trustee of a charity working to assist the Tibetan people. Gary will be signing copies of The Enlightened Spaniel at The Mindful Living Show in London on March 15 and 16.
