- Richard Moore from Derry, Ireland, blinded as a boy by a rubber bullet, is decribed as "my hero" by the Dalai Lama, after he forged a friendship with the man who shot him.
This short documentary looks at Richard's visit to India to meet the Dalai Lama alongside the ex-solider. Richard runs the charity www.childreninc...
This documentary was aired on UTV Northern Ireland in October 2010. Watch another video of Richard with the Dalai Lama during his 2011 visit to Dublin here: • Dalai Lama & Richard M... and his video to Limerick here: • Dalai Lama The Power o...
Tears just rolled down my cheek when poor Richard is being described about the sight of Dharamsala while in the moving taxi. He has a heart of gold. Respect to you, Richard la. Two best friends of Tibet share the same first name: More and Gere.
Two wonderful men. It's wonderful that the Dalai Lama and Richard are good friends. It's so sweet when the Dalai Lama holds Richard's hand. wonderful video
My son met Richard when he came to give a talk at my sons school, my sons only 10 but is fascinated by Richards story, he's going back to the school today with Charles the soldier that shot him and my son has been so excited! I think his interest stems from stories from my mother who's Irish and was caught up in an Ira bomb in the 70s! If Richard can forgive Charles I think it shows anyone can be forgiven! I'm glad he does talks at school as I think it's a very good lesson for children to learn x
Richard Moore you are world hero We. all tibetian very. very very proud of. you.
dalai lama is my hero and inspiration. May he live long.
I just met this man earlier today, he came to visit the school I go, and he gave us a crazy presentation about what happened
I actually got the chance to shake his hand :)
Very inspiring. This video moved me to tears. As the Buddha once said: "
Having hatred in our hearts is like holding onto to a burning hot coal
with the intention of throwing it at somebody, we are the ones who get
burned! "
TRUTH
Thank you for this quote
Daniel D -what a joke. tears for Mr lama.
♥️🙇🏻♂️
Charles you are so brilliant to understand that forgiveness sets you free ❤
Heart warming.
Despite being a hardened bastard, this story has me tearing up.
Forgiveness is a gift to your self. Richard is real hero. H. H. Dalai Lama. 🙏 great spiritual leader with Buddhist dharam and modern science like quantum physics. 🙏🙏
Heartwarming
You can see how Charles feels that remorse for hurting Richard. The way he talks is heavy, not joyful. You can see how the guilt has followed him. But, he let the Norwegian soldier be heard so they could understand each other. I love when the blinded boy says how his sight can be taken but not his vision.
WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING
Awesome!
Love it
this is a chain, then dalai lamanis my hero
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Self immolation due to total loss of the will for all earthly possessions and making an undeniable statement that forces doors to open in our minds shut.
❤️ 💕 💗
Wonderful
Thank you. My sight is challenged with glaucoma but most difficult challenge is forgiveness around grandson's father dying from gunshot. This is a long process. It requires vision. We are not separate we humans. ❣️
A beautiful story.
wonderful

Respected you guys very very lucky.
Wow
Jai bhim nmo budhay😊😊😊
Wow. Richard gives up hate and stones, and lives a life more fulfilling than most. "Little Billy" from the same documentary becomes a psycho and gets shot in Long Kesh...
charles is my hero.
Why you tar everyone with the same brush?
the pope would not do that love the dalai lama
= no true scotsman fallacy, the fact is Buddhist monks HAVE committed self-immolation. In Pali texts, Arahants self-immolate when the Buddha died. Also the sanskrit text speaking of the monk who achieved movable arahatship and fell out of Nirvana 6 times. When he attained Nirvana again he killed himself to make sure he wouldn't fall from Nirvana.
Considering this & considering that Buddhists from MANY separate traditions have self-immolated you have no leg to stand on and claim such things.

What a time-wasting. Better to work and give somethings to the humanity. Not eat without doing anything. Mr Lams has never worked a single day, and why is her holy?
