Inner World is an offering of the Dalai Lama reciting mantras and giving short teachings all woven to a bed of music for the very first time. Released to honor his 85th birthday celebrations on July 6th, 2020, the album will be a great dedication to the decades of his vision and work for world peace and educating the heart. Including previously released tracks "Compassion" and "One Of My Favorite Prayers", when asked why he accepted the request to make the album, the Dalai Lama answered, "The very purpose of my life is to serve as much as I can." He also added, "Music can help people in a way that I can't."
