Library The 14th Dalai Lama (Tenzin Gyatso)
Written work
A Human Approach to World Peace
A short essay of 1984 condensing his thought on peace: the world's great problems arise from the human mind, outer peace depends on inner peace, and compassion and universal responsibility are a practical necessity, not a religious luxury. It anticipates the arguments of his 1989 Nobel lecture.
