In the original, the title of this book begins with a quote from the Beatles: Imagine all the people… Which immediately sets the tone for conversations between the head of the French company TATI, businessman and journalist Fabien Ouaki and His Holiness the Dalai Lama
This is not a sermon: the interlocutors try to discuss problems and solutions without going beyond secular, universal morality. These are very sincere, direct, interested conversations of two modern people about what equally concerns atheists and believers, young and old, West and East. The topics are very different: power, sex, dreams, wealth, death, reason, the path in life. But the Dalai Lama talks about everything in such a way that we have no doubts: this person can really easily “imagine” the life that could be and that should be. Moreover, he himself has already reached this life.
