The Dalai Lama will share the Orpheum stage in the morning with nine high school students from the Lower Mainland. He will listen to the students’ personal stories of acts of compassion and courage and answer questions from them and other students who will tune in via webcast from locations across British Columbia. This will be one of the few times the Dalai Lama has shared the stage solely with students.
