Winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, the Dalai Lama embodies the martyrdom of a Tibet subjected to the Chinese yoke. A symbol of wisdom, he is adulated and even sacralized in the West. Who then would question this living god who claims to carry with him the hope of freedom for an entire people? Maxime Vivas dares to tackle the myth: what if the Dalai Lama is a theocrat who fills his palace coffers with gold, while the Tibetans are merely serfs denied an education? What if he was playing into the hands of the Americans and the CIA rather than the Tibetans he claims to defend? What if he has known for many years about the sexual assaults, rapes and acts of paedophilia that have recently come to light in his religious movement?Drawing on the Dalai Lama's own words, the testimonies of proselytizers and confidential documents, the author paints a vitriolic portrait of "His Holiness" and shows us that all is not so Zen in Buddha's kingdom.
