I followed this link - but it didn’t open. I don’t know if this was a temporary hitch
love HummingBird
It opened for me O.K.
Joan Roshi - This was indeed a powerful panel. Thank you so much for pointing it out! It's was especially helpful and fun for my occidental monkey-mind to absorb the shining, simple experience which these truly dedicated souls bring to light. I needed the reminders so I don't out-think my purpose. And the humor was WONDERFUL!
And I see you are still your charismatic self with the wonderfully-powerful presence you've had since I met you. Please accept my thanks for your courage and confidence.
Roshi Joan, hands together and thank you.
HummingBird, perhaps you need to have FlashPlayer installed on your computer. The link worked for me as well.
I finally got the chance to actually sit down and watch this video. It was so interesting to see Desmond Tutu alongside His Holiness or should I say His Holiness alongside Desmond Tutu. Tutu is a real hoot, very emotional and expansive, whereas HHDL is precise and scholarly. These two elders were fun to watch.
The questions were thought provoking. I was left contemplating how I personally came to awareness of compassion.
