Synopsis

The great leader as we've never seen him before.

This is the extraordinary documentation of the evolving friendship between the Dalai Lama and the man who followed him across Ireland and Eastern Europe, on a pilgrimage to India's holy sites, and through the Dalai Lama's near fatal illness. On this remarkable journey Victor Chan was awarded an insight into His Holiness-his life, his fears, his faith, his compassion, his day-to-day practice-that no one has reported before. We've heard the public voice of His Holiness--now we are invited to listen in on his personal explorations, and to take instruction on the Tibetan art of living.

From AudioFile

Victor Chan, a rather callow reporter and seeker, develops a long-term relationship with the Dalai Lama. In his humble and fumbling way, Chan brings us close to the Dalai Lama's entourage and inner circle. Over the years, as Chan matures, we encounter the Dalai Lama's simplicity, wisdom, and continual challenges, voiced ably and sensitively by Shishir Kurup, whose slight Indian accent adds a sense of place to the narration. Predictably, the seeker, Chan, finds deeper meaning and answers for all of us in his journey with His Holiness, one that is easy to absorb in this appealing audiobook.
