A Force for Good: The Dalai Lama's Vision for Our World
A Force for Good: The Dalai Lama's Vision for Our World

Compassionate energy harnessed for global transformation.

If you’re seeking a dose of optimism in a world that often seems harsh, "A Force for Good" could provide that uplift. It's not just about personal happiness; it's an action plan inspired by the Dalai Lama. Think of it like a roadmap to channeling your best intentions for the planet’s and humanity’s benefit, all steeped in the gentle but profound wisdom of one of the world's spiritual leaders. It’s a book that doesn't just want to change you; it wants to change the world through you.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
