Just not my cup of tea. Naturally, the quotations from His Holiness are wonderful. But for my tastes the book is precious. But, if you like cute/pretty books with positive messages that you can put on a coffee table for visitors to see, this one is definitely 5 stars for you. ( )

Book description
Dit boek is een kennismaking met de Dalai Lama zelf, in zijn eigen woorden.
Hij vertelt over zijn leven en werken, over zijn teleurstellingen en zijn hoop.
Vervolgens bespreekt hij in kort bestek, en zeer begrijpelijk, wat de kern van zijn
levensbeschouwing is. Als religieuze leider van Tibet, tevens hoofd van de ÉfeTibetaanse regering in ballingschap, is de Dalai Lama wereldwijd geliefd en H gerespecteerd. Hij ontving in 1989 de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede.
H De vele schitterende foto's uit Tibet en India, van natuur, cultuur en religie, H maken van dit boek de mooist denkbare ontmoeting met ^Ltn^tKiu*».. ..a. de wereld van de Dalai Lama.
