I saw a documentary about Dalai Lama meeting at his home with a group physicists, chemists, economicists, teachers, activists, social workers, etc. from all over the world with many different backgrounds. They were meeting about changing the world and resolving many of the world's problems. The documentary was very well done and narrated by Harrison Ford. It really makes you think about what they are discussing. However, it seemed like most of the problems they were dealing with were related to how they interacted with each other. It was humerous and it seemed like when they left the didn't resolve any of the world's problems but learned how to interact with each other and realized how they can make a difference as individuals using what they learned at retreat. One of the quotes is that "everybody thinks of changing the world but no one thinks of changing themselves". There is more information and trailers at www.dalailamafilm.com.
