The Meaning of Life from The Dalai Lama

The Meaning of Life from the Dalai Lama

6/24/2018

Reading a somewhat technical book by the Dalai Lama about the nature of the universe as related to science and spirituality sparked an interest to learn more about him.

A google search yielded a very relatable article by Douglas Preston that described a visit by the Dalai Lama to the Santa Fe, New Mexico ski basin in the days when he traveled with only a handful of wing-tip-shoe-and-suit-clad monks.

A young server who brought him cookies and hot chocolate after a chairlift tour of the area asked him about the meaning of life.

While this article is an entertaining read, if you're short on time, you can scroll down to its last few paragraphs to get the Dalai Lama's surprisingly simple response.

Enjoy!
