He treated the Earth gently. He treated everything that way. Though wide-reaching, his footprint on this planet was always thoroughly considered, considerate. A paradox in so many ways; sweet-tempered, mellow, benign, profound. Somewhere in Tibet, his body lies buried in his homeland. Somewhere in Massachusetts his memory lies, also in his home.
I feel hushed, reading this; very moving.
