Among humanity there are so many different varieties of people that we need a variety of approaches to achieve the same goal. That goal is compassionate humanity and compassionate human society. Thats what I believe, and thats my message. His Holiness the Dalai Lama This little book commemorating His Holiness the Dalai Lamas visit to the Town of Woodstock, on the United Nations International Day of Peace, September 21, 2006, will serve as a reminder to the people of Woodstock, and their friends and neighbors, about the importance of the universal values of love, compassion, and warm heartedness. Mr. Tashi Wangdi The Office of Tibet, New York . Thats my story. I would only add that, after thinking about it, I believe His Holiness was blessing all of us. I have never seen the people in my town so open to such a positive message. I'm sure His Holiness appreciated it. So really, to those of you who ask what was it like for you? Jeremy Wilber Town Supervisor Woodstock, New York.
