The Great 14th: Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama in His Own Words
His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama has, since his forced exile from his homeland in 1959, been credited as an author of over 100 books and appeared in dozens of international documentary films (including the strange Russian film, Sunrise/Sunset, released in 2008), not to mention the fictionalizations of his life shaped by Martin Scorsese and Brad Pitt.

The Dalai Lama, whose name means Ocean of Wisdom, is part of the full title "圣 识一切 瓦齐尔达喇 达赖 喇嘛" (Holiness Knowing Everything Vajradhara Dalai Lama) given by Altan Khan, the first Shunyi King of Ming China in 1578 AD.,[4] is also known to Tibetans as Gyalwa Rinpoche, The Precious Jewel-like Buddha-Master, Kundun, The Presence, and Yizhin Norbu, The Wish-Fulfilling Gem.
