The fourteenth Dalai Lama was born on the fifth day of the fifth month of Wood Hog year of the Tibetan Calendar (July 8, 1935), just as the soul of the thirteenth Dalai Lama was taking flight. The present Dalai Lama is the fourteenth of a line of priest-kings who have ruled Tibet more or less independently of China since the fifteenth century. China’s claims to Tibet date back to the thirteenth century, when the Mongol conquerors of China proper made Tibet a part of their empire also. Ever since, China has sought to assert her authority when her empire has been strong, but has always been rejected by the Tibetans when she has been weak. The apostle of non-violence His Holiness the Dalai Lama is the spiritual as well as the worldly King of the Buddhist of Tibet. Dalai Lama represents the symbol of resistance against the occupation of Tibet by China. He has spent his whole life in offering non-violent resistance to the Chinese authorities who have declared that Tibet is an autonomous region of China. This book is a great story of non-violent and spiritual resistance of a great monk against a mighty military power. This book is based on the lectures of His Holiness the Dalai Lama at various places in the world. The lectures have been arranged lectures have been arranged systematically and it is hoped that they will provide light and hope to the entire humanity.
