The Lama & the Dervish: The 20 Biggest Mistakes You Can Make in Your Life, and How Not to

By Mirzakarim Norbekov and Michael Roach

A super-unique collaboration between a Sufi Muslim sage and a Tibetan Buddhist master In this incredible book, two prominent modern authors--one from the Muslim tradition of Central Asia, and the other from the Buddhist tradition of Tibet--discuss the 20 biggest mistakes that a person can make in their life, and how to avoid them.

These two masters--Mirzakarim Norbekov and Geshe Michael Roach--are two of the best known authors in the world, with millions of books in print between them. They have both lived long and oftentimes controversial lives representing their own two traditions: Islam, and Buddhism.

They come together to share with us the biggest mistakes in their lives, and offer advice for each one of us about how we can avoid these costly errors, and live a truly successful and happy life, wherever country we're from.

The book has been published in both Russian (of Mr. Norbekov's native Uzbekistan) and English (Geshe Michael's America) at the same time. The authors quickly confess to us, in the opening lines, that they originally intended to cover only 10 biggest mistakes of their long and wondrous lives; but quickly found that they could not cover less than 20 major blunders of a human life

The book has been described as incredibly funny, incredibly wise, and incredibly useful for everyone leading a normal life of challenges and wonders, on our amazing planet.
