"My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness."
- His Holiness the Dalai Lama
In the late 1930s, in a remote farming village in Tibet, a young boy was recognized as the reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama, and the world gained one of its greatest advocates for compassion and peace. This authorized graphic novel brings the extraordinary life of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama to readers, tracing the long, perilous road into exile that brought him to India, a country he has called home for over six decades. Through it all, he has remained an unwavering champion of the Tibetan people, refusing to let their identity be erased and holding on steadfastly to the hope of a brighter future.
Revered by the world as the living embodiment of compassion, His Holiness the Dalai Lama's message speaks as urgently today as it always has: that peace, kindness and the oneness of humanity are not just ideals, but the only way forward. Told through vivid, evocative art inspired by the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, this is the unforgettable story of a life that met hardship with strength, and has become, for millions, living proof that compassion can survive against the greatest of odds.
Tom Taylor studied at EAVE and trained under Andrew Laszlo, A.S.C., and Terry Rawlings. He has written numerous screenplays for film and television. Notably, he holds the record as the youngest writer to sell a screenplay, Castaways, to a TV station. He was also nominated for the ELSA Award for his work on the TV series Editorial Stuff.
Taylor founded Wild Cat Studio, where he develops, writes, and produces graphic novels. The studio's work is published and distributed in 45 countries and translated into over 14 languages. Since childhood, he has had a deep interest in Buddhism and its application in daily life.
He is married and has six children, eight horses, three dogs, three rabbits, and nine cats.
Maty Namai studied graphic design at the High School of Advertising and Arts, where he developed a strong focus on comics. Early in his career, he contributed comics to magazines such as ABC and Playboy. He later collaborated with Tom Taylor on graphic novels for Wild Cat Studio, Albatrosme
