In October 2012, His Holiness the Dalai Lama visited the
Kurukulla Center for Tibetan Buddhist Studies in Medford, Massachusetts. He
spoke in front of approximately 1,800 people in both English and Tibetan,
focusing on the values of Tibetan Buddhism. Comcast secured the sole rights to
videotape the event, which was streamed live on Project Open Voice web sites.
For the one-year anniversary of his visit to Medford, Comcast’s
Local Media Development department has produced a package that will educate
consumers on the Dalai Lama and his impact around the world. The package consists
of three primary products across web, digital and VOD platforms.
The full, 72-minute event of the Dalai Lama’s
speech and program at the Kurukulla Center is available to Comcast subscribers nationally
via Xfinity On Demand, and available to the general public at Comcast’s Xfinity
Asia microsite.

A ten-minute highlight reel, including
preparation for the event and interviews from various religious leaders and
community members, available at AMessageOfSpiritualWisdom.com.
##
A free, educational eBook on the Dalai Lama’s
life and history, co-produced with NBC Publishing. The eBook includes an introduction
by Ann Curry of NBC News. His Holiness
the Dalai Lama: A Message of Spiritual Wisdom can be downloaded at the NBC Publishing website.

The Dalai Lama is a well-known figure, with millions of
followers on social media and around the world. Yet his history, background,
and the scope of his accomplishments often go unnoticed. A Visit to Medford
will take viewers through how the Dalai Lama was chosen, his political and
cultural history, and how he brings communities together through his message of
peace and nonviolence.
