I’ll admit, I wasn’t paying much attention to the discussion panel and panelists. It was sweaty hot and it smelled very NASTY on the balcony. Never the less I found some way to entertain myself (with Rebecca 😀 )
But I can say that, during the times I paid attention, I heard some pretty interesting things:
I specifically liked the fact that every one of these panelists had troublesome and tough backgrounds yet they each found a way to contribute and build the community. Tashi Chodron contributed much to through film, books, artwork and cultural events. Katrin Hansing, Charles N. Li, and Bruce Payne are professors. They struggled for their careers and once successful, they decided to help the community build as well.
