Dalai Lama Our Future, Who Is Responsible?

His Holiness the Dalai Lama returns to Australia in December 2009
Sydney Public Talk
Thursday 3rd Dec 2009 - 2- 4pm
Visits by His Holiness the Dalai Lama are eagerly awaited by people
all over the world. Where-ever he travels, people from all walks of life,
young and old, those with religious faith and those without,
greet His Holiness as a truly great man of compassion and wisdom.
Here in Australia we are very blessed. His Holiness the Dalai Lama is
returning to Australia in December 2009 for the third year in a row!
This is a special opportunity to deepen our connection with one of the
great leaders of our time and engage with His Holiness' message of
love, compassion, tolerance and wisdom.
His Holiness is an advocate of individual and universal responsibility -
this is his message, the very basis of his teachings and those of the
Buddha. Over the course of the visit, His Holiness will present,
demonstrate and discuss the very nature of being and how responsibility
for our future lies with each of us.
The theme of His Holiness' visit this year is Our Future, Who is Responsible? It is one of helping us to become aware of and accept our responsibility as global citizens for our own actions, for what is happening in the world in which we live and for all the other living beings that we share our world with.
In a world that confronts us each and every day with difficult and often
upsetting situations, the wisdom of the Dalai Lama challenges us and invites us to seek alternatives which not only achieve our own well being but which also contribute to the good of all.
The Sydney public talk His Holiness will present, demonstrate and discuss
our 2009 visit theme, how responsibility for our future lies with each of us.
The Dalai Lama makes no claim to be anything other then a 'simple Buddhist monk' but his practical advice for living and working in these current times, is highly sought after and universal.
Do not miss the opportunity to hear one of the most respected and thoughtful figures of our time. Reconsider what is important to you and how you can make a difference to Our Future.
There are also Teachings sessions on Tuesday 1 December and Wednesday 2 December.
