cars waiting below and driven to hotel Peninsula, Beverly Hills, where His
Holiness had a private lunch and attended a function organsied by Dr. B.K.
Modi concerning the feature film Dr. Modi is planning to make on the life of
Lord Buddha.
The function was attended by well-known Hollywood film actors, directors,
and scriptwriters. It was addressed by Dr. Modi, Thich Nhat Hanh and His
Holiness. Thich Nhat Hanh's book on the life of Lord Buddha "Old Path White
Clouds" will be the basis for the film.
His Holiness emphasised the importance of sharing the main universal message
of the Lord Buddha of inter-dependency and inter-connectness through film
medium with a wider audience and the main purpose should not be to spread
Buddhism. The guests wanted a photo opportunity with His Holiness and this was
done by groups at the end of the function and His Holiness left for Westin
Passadena Hotel.
On arrival His Holiness gave audience to about four hundred Tibetans and
Mongolians. His Holiness spoke about the special relationship Tibetans and
Mongolians and his recent visit to Mongolia. In his address to the Tibetans
His Holiness emphasised the importance to keeping our rich and unique
linguistic and spiritual traditions alive and to take greater part in the
democratic system of government we now have in place in exile. His Holiness
said that the localTibetan Associations play a crucial role in this and every
Tibetan should bear the responsibility.
The three day teaching on Jangchup Semdrel started from 12 September with
two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. During the lunch
hours some private audiences were granted. This teaching was requested by
Geshe Tsultrim Gyaltsen and his center Thupten Dhargye Ling is organising it.
The tickets for the teaching were sold out months back. All the Sangha members
