The persona of His Holiness The 14th Dali Lama, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Gendun Chopel
All three delicately rising and uplifting nations with inspirational harmony to tell.
The 14th Dali Lama, an advocate of Buddhism for humanity, displays loving action
Erasing profanity, insanity, inhumanity, brutality, and uplifting compassion.
Founder of Plum Village, nominee for the Peace Price, Zen master, and great poet
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called him "An apostle of peace and non-violence."
"Lotus of The Sea Fire, " at Princeton University and Columbia all should know it
Venerable Thich Nhat Hanh, Buddhist University, Saigon, showed love—not offense.
Hermitage life with a yogin-poet, Zhabkar Tsokdruk Rangdrol, uplifts the Dharma.
Translator of Tang Annals segments into Tibetan from Chinese. —"Blessing Karma! "
His enlightening historical golden pen translated the "Blue Annals" into English
Avoiding Samsara, a lotus sutra, enlightened Buddha tree, Gendun Chopel,1903!
The higher level of spiritual motivation: the goal of Nirvana, a vehicle of Mahayana
Limitless compassion, the enlightening mind of the Dharma, moving to Bodhicitta!
© His Excellency, Professor, Ambassador, Dr. Joseph S. Spence, Sr (Epulaeryu Master) !

The application of intuitive knowledge of the middle path brings harmony to mind, body, and soul, with the ingenuity of self-exploration to overcome hindrances during the journey along the way.
