"The Second Dalai Lama was the greatest of all the early Dalai Lamas."-- The Fourteenth Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso

"Having known Glenn Mullin and his work for many years, I am delighted to see yet another volume of his wonderfully heartfelt and readable studies of the works of the Dalai Lamas. The Second Dalai Lama sometimes signed his works...'The Mad Beggar,' referring to that state beyond all attachment..."-- Richard Gere
