Description
September 21, 2006 was the United Nations Day of Peace. Woodstock, New York was fortunate to have a visit on that day from "a simple monk" who is one of the leading spokesmen for peace and understanding in our human world: His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. This DVD chronicles both his public talk in the town of Woodstock and a Buddhist teaching and ceremony at KTD Monastery, the sponsor of the visit. In his public talk, His Holiness focused on loving kindness and compassion as well as understanding among religious traditions. Prior to bestowing the empowerment of Chenrezig on the crowd assembled at KTD, he gave a teaching on essential points of Dharma, Buddhist history and logic. Recorded and produced by Karma Kagyu Institute.
