We also want to take this op- portunity to thank Betty Bland for her nine years of hard work and invaluable service. Her many achievements will be remembered, her equanimity and high spirits missed. We wish her a happy and peaceful retirement and many years of "flexible time"!

Special Members' Event with the Dalai lama
We have finally determined the timing for the Special Members' Event. It will be at 8 am on July 18th at the Harris Theater. It will take place immediately before the panel discussion with the Dalai Lama. It has been our hope that we could find a time and place where it would be possible for the Dalai Lama to meet with our members. This has not been a simple process. His Holiness' schedule is demanding and the security issues surrounding his visit are extensive. Although we cannot guarantee that His Holiness will attend this meeting, we are convinced that this timing will be the most likely option for our members. Attendance at the event will be restricted to members of the Theosophical Society who have purchased tickets for the Harris Theater panel discussion.

is but the most partial expression of an overshadowing
greater life, we perceive a new vision of community."
