THE BLADE WHEEL OF MIND TRANSFORMATION DVD set

by His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama

Over the course of three days' teaching hosted by Tibet House U.S., His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama transmits and explains the seminal Buddhist text known as the Blade Wheel of Mind Transformation--a teaching characterized by its focus on practical advice for turning adversity to advantage on the spiritual path--from ignorance and suffering to enlightenment and freedom. Includes an introduction and a summary by Robert A.F. Thurman.

Filmed live at the Beacon Theatre, New York City.

Tenzin Gyatso, His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama, is the spiritual and temporal leader of the Tibetan people. Since fleeing the Chinese Communist takeover of Tibet in 1959, he has dedicated his life to teaching compassion and understanding, placing special attention on interreligious dialogue and the sciences. His tireless efforts to find a peaceful resolution to the conflict in his homeland earned him the Wallenberg Award (conferred by the U.S. Congressional Human Rights Foundation), the Albert Schweitzer Award, the Congressional Medal of Honor, and the Nobel Peace Prize.
