The talk that this story is about was one of the greatest stories I've ever seen told in my life. You should set some time aside to really enjoy this.

“Let’s make peace more fashionable than war. First, we need to have less war within ourselves—less inner conflict and struggle—and then we will experience more harmony with others.” - Shyalpa Rinpoche #peacesanctuary #buddhism #nepal
