This era of universal admiration and respect for a spiritual leader is unparalleled in history.
The Dalai Lama turns eighty on July 6, 2015. To recognize and celebrate this milestone, the Art of Peace Foundation is producing an album to honor the Dalai Lama’s vision of compassion, non-violence and peace. It is a moment for musicians and the world to show their appreciation for the Dalai Lama, what he represents and the benefits received from both his teachings & Tibetan culture.
