Hanging With His Holiness

April 14th, 2008 | Category: Experiential, Personal, Religion

The Dalai Lama

So tomorrow morning, between the hours of 730-930AM, I will be attending a private prayer breakfast with His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

I help with a small group here on the University of Washington campus known as the Secular Student Union, and one of my local contacts informed me that the Dalai Lama would be coming to Seattle for a 5 day event. Through one of her contacts, I was invited as an ambassador of the Humanist/Atheist/Agnostic/Freethinking youth of Seattle. It’s a small event, unadvertised, and should be quite intimate.

We had to submit to full background checks, and the security tomorrow morning will be heinous, but it will definitely be worth it.

I’ll give a report tomorrow.
