LIU Global Students Meet with Dalai Lama in India
BROOKLYN — Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a rare private audience with a revered and inspirational world dignitary. But two weeks ago, several students at LIU Global had just that opportunity when they met with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and political leader of the Tibetan Buddhist, in India.
The “simple monk,” as he describes himself, spoke with the students about compassion on Saturday, March 2, for 45 minutes.
“He left us with a message: to use our positions as Americans to make the world a better place for future generations by spreading compassion,” said student Carly Wyman. “It was truly an inspiring meeting that will stay with me for the rest of my life.”
