The World of the Dalai Lama: An Inside Look at His Life, His People, and His Vision

Whenever we encounter one like His Holiness or we encounter a book like this, both serve to ground us or to remind us again of our purpose and existance if only for a moment. Often times we take living for granted or moreso, we tend to forget ourselves in the HUM of life. This book is like a window where we can peer at our forgotten selves. When his Holiness said "the Law of Karma is infallible" it jogs the conscience and we remember. This book reminds us to look back so as to go forward with a stronger and renewed purpose. We may not know where we are going to if we do not know where we came from.
