Though religion can certainly help in this, the Dalai Lama demonstrates that there are universal principles we can draw on which transcend the dilemma of belief or unbelief. And whilst many have been content to speak of spiritual matters as something mysterious or evanescent, the Dalai Lama explains his approach in terms that are as clear and concise as they are compelling.
With wit, gentle good sense and with penetrating insight, the Dalai Lama shows how the truths that have stood the test of generations of practise can provide us with the tools to live happy, fulfilled and meaningful lives. In the process, it becomes apparent that he does not merely espouse the 'feelgood' religiosity some accuse him of. The reader is left admiring not just the wisdom of the author, but the wisdom of the culture he represents.  aBuddhism9240342  aReligion and Mythology9240343  aGyatso,Tenzin9240344  2ddccBK  c240499d240499  00102ddc40708OTHaALbALcSKd2025-09-15g499.00l0o294.3 LAMApD06343r2025-09-24 16:30:33v499.00w2025-09-24yDB
