Just ran into Janet Thomas earlier this week, and she told me she & her friends are putting on what appears to be a great slideshow tomorrow (Friday, in this four-day week) at the Library at 7pm…here’s more:
Thrinley DiMarco, Kurt Schwalbe and Janet Thomas will give a slide presentation about their recent trip to India.
The presentation explores the Tibetan Diaspora in northern India as well as the complexity of life in this extremely diverse country, including a visit to Vandana Shiva’s organic seed farm, Navdanya; the culture and countryside of Bir, the parasailing capital of the planet and home to the Deer Park Institute, an Indian / Tibetan / Western cross-cultural place of learning; and Dharamsala the home, and government-in-exile of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
