Inspirational teachings and wisdom of the leading Buddhist teacher of
our time.
One of the most influential Buddhist leaders of our time, His Holiness
the Fourteenth Dalai Lama is a Nobel Peace Laureate and the exiled
spiritual head of the Tibetan people. A tireless teacher and writer, he
is the author of dozens of widely acclaimed works, including The Book
of Joy, The Art of Happiness and The Heart of Meditation--and this
compact collection brings together a selection of inspiring short
teachings from many of his popular books. Addressing a broad range of
subjects, such as nonviolence, impermanence, religion, politics, and
human rights, these wise words show the power of goodness even in the
most uncertain of times.
