He was the Dalai Lama's special envoy and chief negotiator with the People's Republic of China in the formal negotiations over the status of Tibet. In this revealing memoir, Gyari chronicles his lifetime of service to the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan cause. Gyari recounts his work conducting formal dialogue with the Chinese leadership from 2002 to 2012, as well as his efforts during the many years of quiet diplomacy preceding these historic negotiations. He details the fits and starts of the parties' relationship, addressing successes as well as failures and highlighting misperceptions, missteps, and missed opportunities by both sides. Gyari grounds his recollections of his time as special envoy in his life experience, providing a powerful account of the personal side of Tibet's struggles. He describes the Tibetan resistance to the Chinese invasion and the tumultuous early years of the Tibetan community in exile as well as his family's history and spiritual lineage. A reincarnated Tibetan Buddhist lama forced to flee Tibet during the Chinese invasion, Gyari illuminates how his political efforts fulfilled his spiritual calling. Informed by his unparalleled experiences, Gyari offers realizable-but provocative-recommendations for restarting the Tibetan-Chinese dialogue to achieve a mutually beneficial resolution of the issue. For all readers interested in Tibet's complex modern history, this book offers an incomparable look inside the decades-long effort to achieve the Dalai Lama's vision of a reunited Tibet"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Gyari, Lodi G. $q (Lodi Gyaltsen) 650 0 $a Exiles $z Xinlong Xian $z Xinlong Xian $v Biography. 650 0 $a Exiles $z Washington (D.C.) $v Biography. 600 30 $a Gyari family. 600 00 $a Bstan-Æ¡dzin-rgya-mtsho, $c Dalai Lama XIV, $d 1935- $x Friends and associates. 651 0 $a China $x Relations $z Tibet Autonomous Region. $z Tibet Autonomous Region. 651 0 $a Tibet Autonomous Region (China) $x Relations $z China. 650 0 $a Tibetans $z Washington (D.C.) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Xinlong Xian (China) $v Biography. 651 6 $a Region autonome du Tibet (Chine) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0476619 $x Relations $0 (CaQQLa)201-0375058 $z Chine. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0476619 650 6 $a Tibetains $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 $z Washington (D.C.) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0441109 $v Biographies. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 600 07 $a Bstan-Æ¡dzin-rgya-mtsho, $c Dalai Lama XIV, $d 1935- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00056710 650 7 $a Exiles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918139 650 7 $a Friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935174 650 7 $a International relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977053 650 7 $a Tibetans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01150682 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a China $z Tibet Autonomous Region. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01758817 651 7 $a China $z Xinlong Xian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01262281 651 7 $a Washington (D.C.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204505 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gyari, Lodi G.
