If you can not endure all this lecture,( after all is about 1 hour long) skip it to 50:10 and then witness why His Holines is called Kundun "the Presence" is very touching to see how much he cares for his friends,.. very very touching, for me at least.

can not mesure love and compassion as you can not mesure the sky!

but thank you for promoting them

Measuring compassion sounds like a great foundation on which to judge people... If we find a measure we'll probably try and tweak our behavior to score high on it.
