Description
One of the Dalai Lama's slogans is: "If you want to be happy, be compassionate." In this lecture, Professor Thurman discusses how to do this by opening our hearts to others, especially our enemies. Our enemies aren't just other people, but within ourselves. By transforming anger towards all our enemies we can find true happiness and also help others do the same.
