HIS HOLINESS: MEMORIES AND MOMENTS

This book is a personal account of a spiritual journey inspired by the teachings of Lord Buddha and the life and philosophy of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. It reflects the timeless values of peace, compassion and non-violence, and explores the relevance of Buddha Dhamma in our everyday lives.

Written from the perspective of a Bengali writer and admirer of Buddhist philosophy, the book traces the author’s journey from Kolkata to Bodh Gaya, with the hope of meeting His Holiness and seeking his blessings. It recounts the preparations, expectations and experiences of a long wait for an audience with the Dalai Lama, along with reflections on his life, teachings and remarkable contribution to world peace.

Enriched with rare photographs collected from archives and Buddhist monasteries, this book offers both a written and visual account of His Holiness’s life and journey. More than a record of a personal experience, it is an expression of reverence for the Buddha’s wisdom and a humble tribute to the enduring message of peace and compassion.

Namo Buddhaya.
