Reseña del editor:

The essence of His Holiness the Dalai Lama's teaching in a beautiful gift volume in the Our Own Words series. In this challenging collection of the Dalai Lama's wisdom, one of the greatest spiritual leaders of our time reflects on suffering, happiness, love and truth and emphasises the need to transform the human mind if we are to find real fulfilment. His Holiness the Dalai Llama was born on 6th July 1935. At the age of two he was recognised as the reincarnation of the thirteenth Dalai Lama and enthroned in 1940. Following the suppression of the Tibetan national uprising in 1959 he escaped to India where he was given political asylum. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989. At the heart of all the Dalai Lama's teaching is the plea for compassion and non-violence, the essential goodness of the human heart and the need to live well and die well. This collection reflects the breadth of his teaching but also its utter simplicity and is an ideal introduction as well as an inspiring companion.
