A truly insightful adventure into the life of one of the champions of Humanity. For someone who's life seems so public, there was so much that I didn't know about the Dalai Lama that I learnt through this film. I read 'The Universe in a Single Atom' a few years ago and it was in this book that I first learnt of his immense grasp and balance of scientific inquiry and spiritual reverence. Exploring everything from Darwinism and karma, quantum mechanics and philosophical insight into the nature of reality, neurobiology and the study of consciousness. This film, very aptly titled, goes deeper that the book, looking at his childhood and early experiences with great scientific names. Showing a side of the Dalai Lama that many people would not know. Well done! <3

It was so inspirational to be reminded of what we can learn, from and about, the world that we share with everyone. The Dalai Lama is a true gift to humanity. His teaching and common-sense science approach to the world are traits sorely needed in today's society, especially of the U.S. I need to watch again to see what I may have missed. I appreciate his sharing - I wish more people would watch and relate...

In a world that is polarized by negativity, it is inspiring and encouraging to see the open dialogue and genuine playful curiosity that the Dalai Lama brings to advanced scientific inquiry without any hesitation. The Dalai Lama, through his involvement bridging the gap between science and spirituality offers an example of how we all may approach the unknown. This film sheds a light on the vast interconnections we all share and how more knowledge does not threaten the truth, it illuminates it. Through the discoveries in the film, we can all learn to face the future with an open mind and a heart of compassion. I love his repeated expression at learning something new... "Oh, Wonderful!"
