On political issues of Tibet after 1951.
Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, is respected and loved, not only by the people of Tibet, but also by millions of people around the world. Born into a peasant family, the Dalai Lama was two years old when he was recognized as the reincarnation of his predecessor. WORDS OF WISDOM captures some of the Dalai Lama's most sage and sensible thoughts on topics that range from global peace to the meaning of life and compassion. Here the Tibetan spiritual leader's words resonate with everyone from world leaders to the common man. Quotes from the Dalai Lama: "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness." "A learned person will become noble only when he or she has put into practice what has been learned, instead of just mere words."
