I find that this book will provide me with a great insight into the teaching of Dalai Lama. Dalai Lama's life is summarized into small 2-4 page chapters in order for the reader to gain appreciation into his life and what led to his amazing journey.

No matter what your belief system, The Dalai Lama is a man to be respected. His life has served as an example of peace and the willingness to speak up for the betterment of all people. His life story is extremely interesting: born into a large peasant family, discovered to be the reincarnation of The previous Dalai Lamas, trained to be a monk, and then forced to leave his home so that he could bring his words to the world.

The Dalai Lama's Little Book of Inner Peace covers a wide variety of topics including some of The Dalai Lama's childhood memories and concerns as he faced exile. Other sections detail the political upheaval in Tibet and the greater global issues that need to be addressed. For those new to Buddhism, The Dalai Lama introduces key concepts.

The Dalai Lama's Little Book of Inner Peace is a fascinating book. I feel like I have a greater insight into The Dalai Lama both as a world leader and as a man.

The Dalai Lama is truely one the Greatest Human Beings of our time. This is yet another book of inspiring messages to sit quietly and reflect upon.
