The Buddha wanted his students to investigate, to see for themselves whether what he said were true. As a student of the Buddha, the Dalai Lama promotes the same spirit of investigation, and recognizes that new approaches are needed to allow seekers in the West to experience the relevance of the liberating message in their own lives. This volume stands as an introduction to Buddhism, and provides a foundation for the volumes to come.

Winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, he is the now in his eighties and continues to travel and teach extensively. Thubten Chodron has been a Buddhist nun since 1977.
