“Feel and express in every moment  your Divine Connection with the All, and with every person, place and thing.  Embrace every circumstance, own every  fault, share every joy, contemplate every mystery, walk in every man’s shoes,  forgive every offense (including your own), heal every heart, honor every person’s  truth, adore every person’s God, protect every person’s rights, preserve every person’s dignity, promote every person’s interests, provide every person’s needs, presume every person’s holiness, present every person’s greatest gifts, produce every person’s blessing, and pronounce every person’s future secure in the assured love of God. Be a living breathing example of the Highest Truth that resides within you.” – Conversations with God, Book 2  – Neale Donald Walsch

An Interview With the Dalai Lama

By: On: May 29, 2009 at 9:54 am

A few weeks ago I attended an event at MIT with The Dalai Lama. The NY Times has a video interview with His Holiness The Dalai Lama that is well worth watching: An Interview With the Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama Stresses Ethics and Values at MIT

By: On: May 4, 2009 at 4:49 pm

Last week, I drove down to Massachusetts so that I could attend the inaugural event at MIT’s Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values.

My interest in attending the event was two fold:

  • First –  To hear the Dalai Lama speak because I feel he is one of the great spiritual leaders of our times.
  • Second – Because I feel strongly about the objective and mission of the Center, which is to “inspire a new generation of 21st century leaders with compassionate responsibility for the global and long-term social, economic, and environmental impacts of their decisions.”

The Center’s inaugural event at MIT was quite different from the large event at Gillette Stadium on Saturday that drew a diverse crowd of nearly 16,000.

Peppering his talk on promoting ethics and compassion, with his wonderful sense of humor, my first impression of His Holiness, was that he possesses a quality of pure happiness and joy, that I would liken to the happiness that is reflected in a small child.

Heading to Boston to Hear the Dalai Lama Speak at MIT

By: On: April 28, 2009 at 8:28 pm

I’m heading to the Boston area tomorrow morning for a 3 days so that I can attend the inaugural event at The Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values at MIT on Thursday, April 30.

I’ve been granted a press pass from The Center, so I will have a substantial piece on the event when I return from Boston which will be published on The Democratic Daily. I’m very excited about the opportunity to hear His Holiness, The Dalai Lama speak on the topic of Ethics and Enlightened Leadership. I believe The Dalai Lama is one of the great spiritual leaders of our time and in my quest for inner peace his teaching have always resonated with me.

The Center “will promote the Dalai Lama’s vision of a better world by sponsoring interdisciplinary programs and deliberations on ethics.”

A collaborative think tank, the center is supported through the generosity of friends who recognize its potential to help shape tomorrow’s leaders. It will invite distinguished researchers, educators, entrepreneurs, policymakers, artists and others from diverse cultural, religious and educational backgrounds to contribute to its objectives through workshops and lecture series.
