The Dalai Lama, leader of the Tibetan Buddhist faith, will speak in Indianapolis. His talk, entitled "Compassion as the Pillar of World Peace," will be held at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum at the State Fairgrounds on June 25.

The speech is co-sponsored by The Center for Interfaith Cooperation, The Indiana Buddhist Center and Compassionate Indy.

The Dalai Lama last visited Indianapolis in 2010, when he spoke for a crowd of 10,000 at what was then Conseco Fieldhouse. He spoke on parenting, health and letting go of anger and worry. "I lost my whole country. There's no use to worry too much," he said at the time.

Information on how to get tickets will be forthcoming.
