His extraordinary presence alone is worth going for; but his speech was a disappointment because he spoke almost inaudibly through an interpreter who had a flat expressionless voice and the only microphone. Janet. Isle of Arran For some reason, I fully understand him. He does speak with a rather heavy Tibetan tongue, and his interpreter is flat because the subject matter is rather intense, with virtually no room for inflection. I have a DVD set they made regarding the Four Noble Truths. I wish H.H. spoke English all the way through, but he couldn't translate all the words into English. There are many words which don't directly translate, so his interpreter is absolutely brilliant how he finds ways to mirror the sentiment in the speech. I still may go, but we have to see what is happening then. I live a day at a time. |
