This first-ever series of in-depth dialogues with Samdhong Rinpoche, the current Prime Minister of the Tibetan Government-in-Exile, presents his refreshing views on a wide range of pressing topics including the problems of the present political world order, the philosophy of "non-violence" (Ahimsa) and "truth-insistence" (Satyagraha) and the plight of Tibet in the face of the communist Chinese invasion. Informed throughout by his deep belief in the principles of Tibetan Buddhism, "Samdhong Rinpoche" holds to an uncompromising vision of the Truth - the way the world could be if it renounced its destructive path of unprincipled pragmatism and worldly compromise. Venerable Professor Samdhong Rinpoche was born in 1939 in the Tibetan province of Kham. At the age of five he was recognised and enthroned as the reincarnation of the fourth Samdhong Rinpoche. In 1959 he fled to India to escape the repressive Chinese government in Tibet. There he was commissioned by His Holiness the Dalai Lama to serve as a teacher to monks in exile. In 2001, Rinpoche was named Prime Minister of the Tibetan Exile Government, the first political leader to be directly elected by the people in exile. "Rinpoche is a great scholar, with a deep and vast understanding of Buddhist philosophy, both Sutra and Tantra; not only a scholar but a great practitioner, living in the meaning." - Lama Zopa Rinpoche, one of the world's most beloved Tibetan teachers. This book includes a foreword by His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama.
