[Buddha-l] Charter for Compassion

[Katherine Masis]

Theologian/historian of religions Karen Armstrong won the TED prize last year and I didn't find out about it till yesterday.  Here's her wonderful speech on the TED website, where she invites the world to launch an international, inter-faith Charter for Compassion:

A nice thing about watching this 28-minute video on the TED website (as opposed to youtube.com) is that the lower bar divides the speech into theme segments.  
This is the website for the Charter for Compassion:
