Freedom in Exile: the Autobiography of the Dalai Lama by Dalai Lama (Paperback,

In 1938 a two year old boy was recognised through a traditional process of discovery as being the reincarnation of all previous Dalai Lamas, the spiritual rulers of Tibet. Taken away from his parents, he was brought up in Lhasa according to a monastic regimen of rigorous austerity and in almost total isolation. Here, in his own words, he describes what it was like to grow up revered as a deity among his people, reveals his innermost feelings about his role, and discusses the mysteries of Tibetan Buddhism. This book is secondhand and in good condition. It is signed and dated inside front cover "Barry Moon 27 November 1991" There is slight foxing to the cover and a crease to the front bottom corner of the cover, but other than that, all pages are clear and in good condition, and the binding is good.  If you're interested in books on Buddhism, please take a look at my other listings, and please keep an eye out as I am sorting through a number of books at the moment.
