In this book, based on a series of talks that he gave at a Tibetan Buddhist center in Delhi during the 1990s, the Dalai Lama examines the nature of the human mind and emphasizes the need for each of us to transform ourselves if we wish to lead more fulfilling lives. In his disarmingly personal style, he discusses suffering, happiness, love, and truth, and offers practical wisdom on issues ranging from religious tolerance to the world economy. Stressing the need for compassion and non-violence, the Dalai Lama reiterates the essential goodness of the human heart and teaches us how to live and die well, reminding us constantly of the responsibility of our actions and thoughts.
