Dalai Lama


We went to see the Dalai Lama on Friday at Key Arena for the Seeds of Compassion conference. There was a panel discussion with his holiness and a group of other people talking about how parents and educators can bring compassion into the lives of children and families. I really wanted to see the panel that was scheduled for later that day concerning compassion in the media with Dave Matthews and NBC's Ann Curry, but I think it was all booked up.

Anyways, it was amazing to see him in person - very powerful energy about him. Also really cool to hear from these local leaders of different social organizations and hear about all of their efforts to improve our world. Here's a little video clip of him speaking (not at said conference).
