I hope that the Dalai Lama Center creates an environment that generates within people a true understanding of the value, joy and fulfillment of seeking a life of compassion and meaning. My sense is that the Connecting for Change dialogue was a great example of what the Center can be and stand for.”
— Rud Browne, CEO, Ryzex (an Inc 50 Company)

"I truly believe that individuals can make a difference in society. Since periods of change such as the present one come so rarely in human history, it is up to each of us to make the best use of our time to help create a happier world."

- His Holiness the Dalai Lama
