  In these dialogues with French screenwriter Jean-Claude Carriere, the Dalai Lama, spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, provides an insight to an inner calm and clarity of mind. Discussing issues such as women's and human rights, democracy and fundamentalism, terrorism and violence, the population explosion, and the environment, he aims to show not only how the ancient but practical spiritual intelligence of Buddhism can adapt to understand our world, but how we may broaden our minds to understand Buddhism, and through it gain a better understanding of the world.
