A 90th Birthday Present for the Dalai Lama

Is there a man more constant and faithful to his cause and his people than Tenzin Gyatso, the Dalai Lama? He will turn 90 on July 6. The 14th in a line of Tibetan god-popes stretching back six centuries, he has for nearly 75 years contended with China, a cruel and remorseless foe, with valor, patience and stamina. Along with Pope John Paul II, he has been the most politically active spiritual leader in the postwar world, proof that men of God can be consummate politicians without losing their spiritual clarity.
