    Description

    Penguin Books The Open Road The Global Journey of the Fourteenth Dalai Lama by Pico Iyer

    Pico Iyer has been engaged in conversation with the Dalai Lama (a friend of his father's) for the last many decades-about his message and its effectiveness. Now, in this insightful, impassioned book, Iyer captures the paradoxes the Dalai Lama embodies: he is a religious leader who warns against being needlessly distracted by religion; a Tibetan head of state who suggests that exile from Tibet can be an opportunity; an incarnation of a Tibetan god who champions globalism and technology.Moving from Dharamsala, India, to Lhasa, Tibet, to venues in the West-where the Dalai Lama's pragmatism, rigour and scholarship are sometimes lost on an audience yearning for mystical visions-The Open Road illuminates the hidden life, the transforming ideas and the daily challenges of a global icon.
