Man: But what does happiness mean to a Buddhist such as the Dalai Lama?
[♫ Singing ♫]
Man: In your experience, what makes you truly happy?
Man: A point he rather inadvertently proved
through an unexpected story - about gas.

Man: Despite this, he says there is a lot to be happy about
if we only look in the right places.
Man: And yet, we have been taught to fear anyone and everyone - a reality he says
that is impacting one of the fundamentals of human happiness.
Man: It's little wonder then that loneliness has become the number one cause
of depression in the West.
Man: But the thought leader says there is hope if only we could seek
a slightly different goal.
Woman: Your Holiness, I have to thank you so much.
I have learned much from meeting you today.
I have learned, for instance, that we are all on the same road
with the ultimate goal, but we are all different travelers.
Dalai Lama: And also the same experience of gas.
[Laughter.]
Woman: I don't think I'll ever forget this day.
Man: Hi, I'm Mike Worsman, founder of A Million Smiles.
