The Dalai Lama is currently at Minnesota’s Mayo Clinic for evaluation. It’s unclear for how long and for what reason he is visiting the clinic, but he made a surprise appearance at Mayo’s Transform event today.
The appearance took place before the first session of the conference began, so many didn’t get the opportunity to see the spiritual leader, including yours truly. (Cue Homer Simpson’s signature “D’oh!”). But some were fortunate to be there before the event started and captured the moment, sharing images via Twitter.
Looks like Transform is off to a peaceful and centered start.
