The Dalai Lama is one of the world's foremost speakers for peace, and Thupten Jinpa has frequently been by his side, speaking the actual words.
Jinpa is the Dalai Lama's chief english translator, and a speaker and researcher in his own right.
Jinpa translated for the Dalai Lama in Eugene two years ago, and returns this week(May 10th) to speak on "Fearlessness and Compassion: Cultivating the Courage to Change the World."
He joins us by phone prior to his Eugene arrival.
