The interview took place as part of their Vidya Dharma project to India. The conversation included subjects such as values, happiness, religion, and leading a meaningful life.
His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, is the spiritual and temporal leader of the Tibetan people. He was born in a small village called Taktser in northeastern Tibet. Born to a peasant family, His Holiness was recognized at the age of two, in accordance with Tibetan tradition, as the reincarnation of his predecessor the 13th Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lamas are the manifestations of the Bodhisattva of Compassion, who chose to reincarnate to serve the people. Dalai Lama means Ocean of Wisdom. Tibetans normally refer to His Holiness as Yeshin Norbu, the Wish-fulfilling Gem, or simply, Kundun, meaning The Presence.
Vidya Dharma means Path of Knowledge. This was the 2011 Journey to India taken by Mount Madonna School students. The students named their trip Vidya Dharma and spent the school year preparing for this life changing journey.
