    . . . some experience of gas.
    [Laughter.]

    [Monks chanting.]

    Man: But what does happiness mean
    to a Buddhist such as the Dalai Lama?
  • 1:24 - 1:29
    [♫ Singing ♫]
  • 1:29 - 1:32
    Man: In your experience,
    what makes you truly happy?
  • 2:51 - 2:53
    Man: A point he rather
    inadvertently proved
  • 2:53 - 2:57
    through an unexpected story - about gas.
  • 3:05 - 3:06
    [Audience laughing]
  • 3:12 - 3:18
    [Laughing]

    [♫ Singing ♫]
  • 4:43 - 4:47
    Man: Despite this, he says there is a lot
    to be happy about
  • 4:47 - 4:49
    if we only look in the right places.
  • 5:07 - 5:12
    Man: And yet, we have been taught to fear
    anyone and everyone - a reality he says
  • 5:12 - 5:16
    that is impacting one of the fundamentals
    of human happiness.
  • 5:43 - 5:47
    Man: It's little wonder then that loneliness
    has become the number one cause
  • 5:47 - 5:49
    of depression in the West.
  • 6:39 - 6:43
    Man: But the thought leader says
    there is hope if only we could seek
  • 6:43 - 6:45
    a slightly different goal.
  • 7:10 - 7:14
    Woman: Your Holiness, I have
    to thank you so much.
  • 7:14 - 7:18
    I have learned much
    from meeting you today.
  • 7:18 - 7:23
    I have learned, for instance,
    that we are all on the same road
  • 7:23 - 7:27
    with the ultimate goal,
    but we are all different travelers.
  • 7:27 - 7:30
    Dalai Lama: And also the same
    experience of gas.
  • 7:30 - 7:38
    [Laughter.]
  • 7:38 - 7:41
    Woman: I don't think
    I'll ever forget this day.
  • 7:43 - 7:46
    Man: Hi, I'm Mike Worsman,
    founder of A Million Smiles.
