Publisher's summary

In the latest installment of the Dalai Lama's Cat series, His Holiness' Cat ('HHC') is on a mission: to think less, to experience more, to live in the moment. She soon learns the proper phrase for this: being mindful, or a concept better known to her as the power of meow. What ensues is a journey to discover her own true nature, to gain a deeper understanding of her mind, and to experience life's greatest joy: the here and now.

Throughout, she shares encounters with familiar inhabitants of Dharamsala as well as a whole new cast of characters: a senior exec from one of Silicon Valley's most famous social media companies (hint: the name rhymes with 'litter'), the Pope's beloved dog (who shares a shockingly similar title: HHD, His Holiness' Dog), and a public health inspector who threatens to have our poor narrator banned from the Himalaya Book Café.

In this follow-up to The Dalai Lama's Cat and the Art of Purring, listeners can escape to the enchanting and exotic world of the Dalai Lama's monastery in the Himalayas and take a peek inside the mind of a delightfully imperfect creature on the path to enlightenment. By accompanying HHC on her journey, you will learn new ways to relate to your own mind: slowing down, finding peace, and abiding in the boundless radiance and benevolence that is your own true nature.

A continuation of the story

It nice to hear about mediation from a cat. It was nice to see everything from HHC prospective. We follow HHC as she goes through her life. We get some insight into the life of HHC through her past lives and what is happening in her current one. Plus we get to see all the same characters as they go through their lives. We get to see how everyone is learning and growing. We get to see how anger channeled by someone comes back to bite them. We see how being present keeps one calm to solve an issue.

Fun and Uplifting !

I have now read all of the books in the Dalai Lama’s Cat series. I have loved them all ! The stories are uplifting and sometimes humorous. I have come to know and love the characters while learning some of the basics of Buddhist philosophy. If somehow David Michie was able to continue the series I would be delighted. I have recommended the books to a number of friends and will continue to do so.

The Power of Meow, book 3 in a fun teaching series

Hopefully you have started with book 1 and also read book 2 of this series. The story line is excellent because the author is a keen observer of felines and humans, and canines too.

The life lessons that are included within the story are brilliant choices and there was one lesson in one of the 3 books that resulted in instant recognition and some reflection on my interactions with people and poor choices I have made - and recognition may help me behave better in the future.

There are many threads woven into the saga, and the one about reincarnation and the same people and animals incarnating into subsequent lifetimes was fascinating.

The bonus, of course, is the gentle teaching about meditation and its benefits, and the practical teaching of meditation too.

Beautifully narrated, professionally produced, a real pleasure to listen to.

EXCELLENT

This is the third book in the series of five and this book is as good as the previous two.
So much wisdom brought in a way that is so entertaining.
I highly recommend this book and the previous two, and undoubtedly the next two books, the last in the series of five.
The author as the narrator is a pleasure to listen to.
My thanks to all involved, JK.
