Adventure Today Means Finding One's Way Back

Unlike Many Spiritual Leaders, Dalai Lama Is Never Been In A Position To Just Sit On A Mountain Top Handing Out Wisdom. He's Had To Live Out His Principles In The Middle Of This Very Complex Situation, Every Day For Sixty Years Or More. I Think It's Something That Moves Many People About His Example.

He [the Dalai Lama] Has Made It His Mission To Say, "we Can't Afford To Squabble Over Minor Differences, We Have To Concentrate On What We Have In Common, Our Common Mission, Our Common Culture - And Indeed What We Have In Common With The Rest Of The World."

Perhaps The Greatest Danger Of Our Global Community Is That The Person In La Thinks He Knows Cambodia Because He's Seen The Killing Fields On-screen, And The Newcomer From Cambodia Thinks He Knows La Because He's Seen City Of Angels On Video.

The More Ways We Have To Connect, The More Many Of Us Seem Desperate To Unplug.

All Good Trips Are, Like Love, About Being Carried Out Of Yourself And Deposited In The Midst Of Terror And Wonder.
