In this work, the Dalai Lama explores the Buddhist conceptions of mind and consciousness, guiding the reader through the traditional presentations of mental phenomena. It reveals a Buddhist view of the inner world with implications for cognitive science, psychology, emotion research, and philosophy of mind. The volume interweaves passages from great Buddhist thinkers such as Asanga, Vasubandu, Nagarjuna, Dignaga, and Dharmakirti. The Dalai Lama's introduction outlines scientific and philosophical thought in the history of the Buddhist tradition, with essays by John D. Dunne providing additional context.
The 5th Dalai Lama, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso (1617–1682) was recognized as the 5th Dalai Lama, and he became the first Dalai Lama to hold both Tibet's political and spiritual leadership roles.
