In April 2006, the prominent cultural anthropologist Noriyuki Ueda sat down with the Dalai Lama for a two-day conversation. THE DALAI LAMA ON WHAT MATTERS MOST is the result of that long and lively conversation in Dharamsala. In this little book, the Dalai Lama men explores what matters most in this life-from compassion, to the right use of anger, to the creation of a just society-with uncharacteristic candour. THE DALAI LAMA ON WHAT MATTERS MOST includes the Dalai Lama’s thoughts on: embracing anger to precipitate social change, the role of competition in spiritual life, conditional versus unconditional love, soulless materialism, and exercising self-restraint in his position of power. This book offers a unique perspective on the Dalai Lama’s political and spiritual views. On of the real pleasures of this book is His Holiness’ uncharacteristic candour. "I’m not only a socialist, but also a bit of a leftist, a Communist." In addition, it guides the reader through the complex reality of what it means to practice compassion in the here and now.
