H.H. The 14th Dalai Lama


I was blessed enough to be able to attend the teachings of H.H. The Dalai Lama last month. My husband, a friend and I attended the 2 day event. It was enlightening, warm and energizing. The Dalai Lama gives several talks and teachings throughout the year around the world. This past month, His Holiness tought over 2 days at The Long Beach Convention center.

To hear His Holiness teach in person was amazing. He is extremely personable and passionate and explains things in a way that makes it very accessible to everyone. I've always been so moved when I've seen His Holiness speak on television or read his words, but hearing him speak in person with much passion and conviction, gave those words such profound meaning.

If you ever have a chance to go see The Dalai Lama speak or teach, I encourage you to do so. No matter what religion you are, you will find it very enlightening. We all could learn to be kinder, respect and love all living things, and cherish the planet on which we live. In my humble opinion, It's the basis for our existence here on Earth.

Hey,

This is cybrie from nappturality. :) That's so neat you go to see the Dalai Lama..it must've been an enlightening experience indeed.
Well I was trying to organize a meet up for the nappturality SoCal women and wanted to know if you'd be interested in coming. This was the only way I could see to get in touch with you because the PMs are disabled until you actually enable them. I know you're preggers so I'm not sure if you're up to being out and about, but it would be nice to see everyone again before the year's end.
The NP site is all revamped now...I don't know if you've seen it or not. But drop by and let us know if you can come. Take care future mommy!
