Description
Rich in historical footage - including hidden camera footage from within Tibet - traveler/filmmaker Rick Ray poses relevant and timely questions to His Holiness the Dalai Lamaduring a private visit to his monastery in Dharamsala, India. How do you reconcile a commitment to non-violence when faced with violence? Why do the poor often seem happier than the rich? Must a society lose its traditions in order to move into the future? Ray examines some of the fundamental questions of our time by weaving together observations from his own journeys throughout India and the Middle East and the wisdom of an extraordinary spiritual leader. (85m).
