The author of The Mind of the Guru: Conversations with Spiritual Masters, Rajiv Mehrotra here selects the best of the Dalai Lama's writings on all aspects of life. "The Dalai Lama reaches out to a global following with a vision that is transforming, secular, and accessible to all," notes Mehrotra, who organizes these teachings into four sections: the Vision, Buddhist Perspectives, Practice, and World in Harmony. Throughout, the book highlights eloquent applications of the principles of ancient Buddhist thought to contemporary issues, all expressed in the Dalai Lama's uniquely compelling voice.
