The Dalai lama speaks...

H.H. arrives to speak to the tibetan youth.

We post up under a shady tree to absorb his presence, engage his words, and smile with his laughter.

We listen half the time in English and the other in Tibetan.

Even though i can not understand the tibetan, i prefer to listen to his voice directly.
I sit up tall, close my eyes, and practice absorbing the vibration of his words.

And with this I feel the great calm.
As expansive as the Ocean.

For a moment all time ceases.

And I just am, no beginning
no end.
just am apart of it all.

and with this I find release.

before the curious thoughts exhaust my mind again.

Ah, it is these moments that recharge my spirit

in this time of waiting.
