About this book
Over several days in Dharamsala, the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu share an unusually candid conversation about joy, suffering, compassion, illness, fear, and mortality. Their exchange is shaped by different religious traditions but united by a practical conviction: lasting happiness is cultivated through attention, service, gratitude, and connection rather than comfort alone. Douglas Abrams supplies context and narrative continuity, while the two spiritual leaders bring humor and personal stories to difficult questions. This accessible, hopeful book suits reflective bedtime reading and readers drawn to applied wisdom rather than abstraction.
