Answers: Discussions With Western Buddhists
It is probably best not to mistake the chapters of this book for  discussions in the generally accepted sense of the word: they  are, rather, stilted dialogs that serve as vehicles for the  exposition of Tibetan Buddhist doctrine as understood by its  most famous practitioner, the reigning Dalai Lama. Topics  addressed include the essence of Buddhism, the role of the guru,  and the situation of Tibet. The Dalai Lama's many answers should  prove of great interest to his followers in this country.
