‘The ultimate source of happiness is within us.’ DALAI LAMA‘We grow in kindness when our kindness is tested.’ DESMOND TUTUArchbishop Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama have been friends for many, many years. Between them, they have endured exile, violence and oppression. And in the face of these hardships, they have continued to radiate compassion, humour and above all, joy.
