The Pope and the Dalai Lama Throughout History - How Similar Are They Really? (Reupload)

What do the Dalai Lama and the Pope really have in common? And where do their historical and political roles diverge? In this video, we dive into the fascinating similarities and key differences between two of the world's most influential spiritual leaders - the Pope, the head of the Catholic Church, and the Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Whether you are curious about Buddhism vs. Christianity, the Vatican vs. Lhasa, or you just love learning about powerful figures in world history, this one's for you! The host, Dr. Alexander K. Smith, holds a PhD in Tibetan and Himalayan history from the University of Paris, France, and an MA from Oxford University.
