“Tenzin Gyatso, who turns eighty-two on the 6th July 2017, is the longest living Dalai Lama to date. His Holiness is the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people.
In 1989, he won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to restore peace to Tibet. He is renowned across the world as being a prominent campaigner for compassion and peace. He makes an effort to promote compromise between conflicting ideologies wherever possible and is known as the one of most progressive religious leaders in modern times.
The teachings he offers the modern world are based on humility, kindness and above all, love. He speaks clearly and his lessons are simple. As a modern moral authority, he teaches people to live without judgement and to embrace humanity.
““The purpose of all major religious traditions is not to construct big temples of the outside, but to create temples of goodness and compassion inside, in our hearts.” Dalai Lama
