Book description
In his characteristically endearing and informal style, His Holiness
the Dalai Lama examines the nature of the human mind and emphasises the
need to transform it if we want to lead more fulfilling lives. In the
form of several discourses delivered over a period of nine years, he
talks about suffering, happiness, love and truth, and imparts practical
wisdom on issues ranging from religious tolerance to 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, and the interdependence between action and
result. Wise, inspiring and always candid,
The Transformed Mind
gives us hope and solace in this new millennium. His Holiness the
Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people. He has resided
in exile in Dharamsala, India, since 1959 when Chinese forces invaded
Tibet. His tireless efforts on behalf of world peace have brought him
international recognition, including the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989.
