He spoke at Otago uni and the Dunedin (NZ) town hall where I went to listen to him on the 11th June.
An interesting chap, he didn't pull any punches as he criticised all religions for their greed, corruption and divisionism which alienates one religion/group from another.

He got quite harsh in condemning religious violence and murder in the name of a beneficent supreme being or religion, which he quite rightly indicated as being divisive hypocricy

Halfway through his talk a young wannabe artist in the dress circle seats near the stage managed to get past security, interrupted the talk and unfurled a weird painting on canvas, of some sort of floating demi-god with spaklies, a kind of "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" effect, dangling it for the Dalai Lama to get a good look at, then offered it to him.

The Dalai Lama, waving the black baseball cap he'd been given by the Kiwis, basically told him he didn't want the work, so the chap rolled up his picture and sidled off, no drama.

Not much of an artist that chap, a bit of a poser, as he didn't even know how to roll up a painting on canvas, (painted side out, not inwards, to prevent cracks forming in the painted surface).

Other than that minor disturbance, no dramas, the Dalai Lama's as open, bright and witty as ever.
