Theatrical Release Information:
Dalai Lama: Harmony in Diversity

The home video release Dalai Lama: Harmony in Diversity presents the May 29, 1997 speech of His Holiness, Tenzin Gyasoto, the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet, as he delivers an inspirational speech on the state of the world - and mankind's future - before a packed audience of dignitaries and laypeople at St. John the Divine Cathedral in Manhattan. In this sensitive and moving homily, Dalai Lama discusses the growing spiritual, racial, and cultural diversity of the human race, and the peaceful co-existence that can emerge if we learn to embrace this diversity by building our societies on common beliefs and goals. When this occurs, he says, we will in time become a "human garden," breathtakingly resplendent in our differences, and can move toward a more advanced era, free from violence, bloodshed and strife. The Dalai Lama speaks with great wisdom, poignancy, profound insight, and occasional traces of humor; his words will move all who hear him. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
