In Tibet werden die Worte großer Meister in Büchern gesammelt, die den Titel "Ratschläge des Herzens" tragen. Diese Tradition greift der Dalai Lama hier auf. Was dabei herauskommt, was sich so verständlich und schlicht anhört, ist nichts weniger als die Summe seiner Gedanken - Gedanken, die jeden von uns auf seinem Weg begleiten können, egal, woher wir kommen und was wir glauben.

Dalajlama patří k největším duchovním autoritám současnosti. Nuceně pobývá v exilu, a snad právě proto může dobře zprostředkovat učení tibetského buddhismu lidem na Západě. Vnáší jeho myšlenky do kontextu s jinou duchovní tradicí, ale ukazuje je jako univerzálně platné nezávisle na čase a místě. Tato kniha pojednává o tom, že jedním z klíčů k duchovnímu prozření a osvobození je poznání sebe sama - úkol, jehož důležitosti a obtížnosti si byli od antiky vědomi i evropští myslitelé.
