As a child, I was fortunate enough to attend a teaching given by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. It was based on “The Letter to a Friend” written by the great Indian master, Nagarjuna. I did not understand it all, but at the end, His Holiness summarized the essence of Buddhism in this way: “Try to help others. If you are not able to be of help, then at least do them no harm.”
This advice touched me deeply, and ever since I have tried to remember it at least once a day. Now it comes to mind effortlessly. It gives me the strength to address the many difficulties with which a simple Tibetan refugee is faced as he struggles for his people’s freedom.
I hope and wish that this book, based as it is on the teachings and declarations of His Holiness, will bring happiness to all beings, and will help to bring to an end the tremendous sufferings of the Tibetan people.
Dawa Thondup
Representative of His Holiness the Dalai Lama
