Right now in Washington DC around 100,000 people are gathered at the Verizon Center for Kalachakra for World Peace, led by the Dalai Lama.
For anybody who might not be aware, I wanted to let you know that much of this 10 day event will being streamed live here.

Is there a schedule of what will be live streamed? I would love to see as much of this as possible, especially His Holiness speaking on the 9th.
There are some details on HHDL's site but they do not seem to be very specific. However, it does seem that many of the webcasts stay available on the site once they are done, which is how I plan to watch them all. It is difficult to catch them all live.
I just finished watching today’s webcast…a wonderful experience! Following the teaching, His Holiness made some additional comments to the effect that, up to now, the teaching has essentially been a public lecture, but that subsequent teachings would be more in the nature of a “guru/disciple” context. He seemed to be delivering an admonition to the audience, which I interpreted to mean that only Buddhists, or audience members with a sincere interest in taking refuge, should attend from this point onward. If anyone can confirm my take on that or offer more of an explanation on that last portion (about 2-3 minutes), I will be very grateful. Thank you in advance, Bill
