Our Wish-Fulfilling Gem Part 2
OUR WISH-FULFILLING GEM This remarkable book offers an intimate and comprehensive chronicle of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama’s public life during a transformative decade. Following his decision to relinquish political authority, the Tibetan spiritual leader devoted himself more fully to his core commitments: promoting human values, inter-religious harmony, and the preservation of Tibetan culture. Written by a devoted follower, this volume traces His Holiness’s journeys across India and the globe—from remote refugee settlements to global summits and university arenas.

An inspiring account of humility in action, this book is a testament to the enduring influence of one of the world’s most revered spiritual figures.

Yet, many of those debates took place separately. This volume, which is predominantly a joint product of academics and the military of the Faculty of Military Sciences of the Netherlands Defence Academy, shows new venues by bridging the putative political-military divide. Drawing on theory, empirics, and personal experiences t...
