Human Education in the Third Millennium

Blessings his is Holiness the Dalai Lama. I hope you staff forwards/reads this I feel important idea regarding this movement of education in Indian philosophy; for, I am unable to reach out to you on google plus where we were friends for many years. **The Law of Explosive Growth**

“To Add growth, lead followers. To Multiply growth, Lead Leaders." is a quote from chapter 20 "The Law of Explosive Growth." from the book 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John C Maxwell. It refers to creating leader by train leaders to lead. At one point John Maxwell speaks of an initiative to create 1 MILLION LEADERS which he did in a relatively short period, and this is where I thought of what you are trying to do, and how the concept of leadership applies to the forwarding of the core of your talk in this above conversation of Human Education in the 3rd Millennium . The idea is rather simple. As Mr Maxwell found as he attempted his goal of 1 MILLION LEADERS he needed to find leaders to teach leadership to reach his goal, and as you have gathered educators from around the world to this meeting above to hear these concepts that you speak of above in Human Education in the Third Millennium in such leaders is what you need and them being educators is next in importance. If any one of these world renowned educators reads this, or anyone of their students they can see the viability of this idea and expand on it to fit the requirements of their community. I will give an example. Your Holiness tells a story of looking in a medicine cabinet and finding sedatives of a wealthy and well to do family in Sweden and thus remarking that "The mind needs to be calm." not taking medication. In America and many other countries were have veterans who are killing themselves due to PTSD, and having to take massive medicines to combat not having a calm mind. It is imperative that these teachings that are thousands of years old be brought to American and other Western Nations so this tragedy can be combated. If you choose leaders to do this and formed it in a way like SUN TZU teachings the effect would be 1 MILLION TEACHERS! Your dutiful devotee. God Bless, John aka THOR.
