Als im Exil lebender Führer des tibetischen Volkes und einer der weisesten Gelehrten des Buddhismus geniesst er weltweit grosse Anerkennung. Kein anderer Fotograf der Welt ist dem Dalai Lama so nahe wie der Schweizer Manuel Bauer, der sich seit den 1990er- Jahren mit dem Buddhismus, mit Tibet und dessen spirituellem Anführer auseinandersetzt.

Es erlaubt einmalige Einblicke in die internationale Reisetätigkeit des Dalai Lama, seine öffentlichen Auftritte und den medialen Rummel, der diese begleitet. Zudem zeigt es private Seiten der öffentlichen Person und lässt uns auch an den wenigen Augenblicken teilhaben, in denen der Dalai Lama mit sich und seinen Gedanken allein ist. Texte von Thupten Jinpa, langjähriger Dolmetscher des Dalai Lama und Buddhismusgelehrter, und Christian Schmidt, Schweizer Journalist und Tibet-Kenner, erweitern unseren Blick auf das Thema. Im Mittelteil des Bandes wird ein Kalachakra, ein faszinierendes Sandmandala- Ritual, das der Dalai Lama mit seinen Getreuen 2014 im indischen Ladakh abhielt, erstmals ausführlich fotografisch dokumentiert und erläutert. 376 pp. Englisch.
