Waking Up

Length: 4 min.

"How can we collectively wake up?" asks British-born Tibetan Buddhist nun Ven. Tenzin Palmo from the foothills of the Himalayas in northern India. With heartfelt passion for human potential, Tenzin Palmo describes how we all desperately want happiness, but we undermine that possibility through ongoing participation in a society that rewards greed, aggression and egotism.
