Voice For The Voiceless: Over Seven Decades Of Struggle With China For My Land And My People

Beskrivelse

His Holiness the Dalai Lama shares the remarkable story of his lifelong battle with China to protect Tibet and its people. Spanning over 75 years, this book details his personal journey and the ongoing struggle for Tibetan freedom.

A powerful account of the Dalai Lama’s enduring fight to preserve Tibet’s identity and rights in the face of Chinese oppression.

In Voice for the Voiceless, the Dalai Lama recounts his experience confronting the People's Republic of China from a young age. At just 15, he witnessed the communist invasion of Tibet in 1950, met Chairman Mao at 19, and fled to India at 24, beginning his life as a leader in exile.

Over nearly seven and a half decades, he has engaged with successive Chinese leaders-Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao, and Xi Jinping-in his efforts to safeguard Tibet’s people and culture.

This book serves as a poignant reminder of Tibet’s unresolved fight for freedom and the hardships endured by its people. It offers an intimate look at what it means to lose one’s homeland to a harsh occupier and to forge a new existence in exile.

The Dalai Lama reflects on the existential challenges facing his nation, its culture, and religion, while also sharing his vision for the future. Voice for the Voiceless stands as a heartfelt testimony from a global icon, revealing both the pain and hope that fuel his people’s quest for dignity and liberty.
