The year 2020 has brought sharp focus to our collective struggles: a global pandemic, environmental destruction, threats to democracy, reckonings with racial inequality. How is it possible to blossom, lotus-like, from the mud of suffering? The Dalai Lama offers us an incredible example of how to live with compassion, courage, and ethical conviction in the face of tremendous adversity.
A beacon of hope for a troubled world. A Nobel Peace Prize winner. And for many Buddhists, the human manifestation of the bodhisattva of compassion. His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama is loved worldwide for his unwavering commitment to non-violence, and his example of the power of compassion. Now for the first time, Lion’s Roar and Tibet House US, and with the express endorsement of the Dalai Lama, are bringing together an extraordinary gathering of experts to celebrate the Dalai Lama’s vision and profound wisdom in this historic online summit.
Our panel of 21 teachers, spiritual leaders, scholars, and devoted students of the Dalai Lama offers an unprecedented opportunity to explore his life and teachings. Drawing on decades of personal experience, they offer expert insight, teachings, guided meditations, and opportunities for reflection, allowing you to slow down and discover for yourself how the Dalai Lama’s teachings can touch your heart and enrich your life.
