Then from the outer gate His Holiness, the Dalai Lama came walking in. And as I planted flowers, he just kind of stood there. And a while I looked over at him and said, 'Daisies.'"

Her eyes shine at the memory and a big smile spreads across her generous mouth. "And he nodded. I kept planting and by the end of the dream it was obvious a lot of time had gone by because I had planted all the daisies. I got up and scrubbed all the dirt off my hands and my knees and I went to walk inside and ..." -- he voice becomes quiet --"he turned around and left the gate."
