Our hearts break watching the horrific flooding in Nepal and Tibet. The images and videos are devastating. When disaster strikes one community, it touches all of us. We are bound together, all tied into a single garment of destiny. We're holding the Nepali and Tibetan people in our prayers.

[Karmapa @karmapaorg]

Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, shares this message following the recent floods near the border between Nepal and Tibet.

Dear Dharma friends,
I was deeply saddened to learn of the devastating floods and debris flows that have struck communities near the Nepal-Tibet border.

In a very short time, homes, roads, bridges, and livelihoods have been swept away. Many people have lost their lives, many more remain missing, and countless families have been separated from their loved ones or left without shelter and basic necessities. The suffering caused by such a disaster touches not only human beings, but also the many animals and other living beings affected by the destruction of their environment.

I cannot imagine the confusion, fear, and profound sense of loss that those affected, and the families of those who are missing, must be experiencing. All I can offer is my heart, my prayers, and a humble reflection based on the Buddha’s teachings.

According to these teachings, life is not defined by an absolute beginning or end. It unfolds continuously, in dependence upon causes and conditions. Physical forms arise and pass away; yet this does not mean that all connection, meaning, or love is lost.

When we lose those dear to us, it is only natural that our hearts feel heavy and disturbed. Their physical presence may no longer be with us, but the love we shared, the meaning they brought to our lives, and the qualities they embodied continue to live within us. We can honour them by carrying these qualities forward with compassion, courage, and care for others.

My prayers and thoughts are with all those touched by this calamity: those who have died, those who are missing, the injured, the bereaved, and all those who have lost their homes and means of livelihood.

I also wish to express my deep appreciation for the tireless work of the rescue teams, medical workers, police, army personnel, local communities, and volunteers. Their courage, compassion, and selfless efforts bring support and hope at a time of great hardship.

I ask all our monasteries, centres, and Dharma friends in Nepal, Tibet, India, and throughout the world to keep everyone affected in their hearts. Please dedicate the merit of your Dharma practice and your aspirations to the victims of this disaster, and to all those working to bring relief.

I encourage all those who are able to offer material support to do so through reliable relief organisations. Whether or not we are able to contribute materially, our prayers and aspirations can bring benefit.

May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering.

With prayers,

Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa

A child doesn’t need a reason to laugh, to play, or to feel joy. That kind of presence isn’t immaturity - it’s pure wisdom.

Somewhere along the way, we start believing happiness depends on success, approval, or things we own. But real happiness doesn’t come from getting more - it comes from remembering what’s already within us.

In my new course, Happiness Prescription, I’ll guide you back to that childlike joy - the one rooted in being, not in doing.

World Mental Health Day 2025, is a reminder of the harsh reality of a crisis that's spiraling out of control.

Over 1 billion people worldwide are living with mental health disorders like anxiety and depression - conditions that rank as the second leading cause of long-term disability.

91% of people with depression don’t have access to adequate care, with mental health getting just 2% of healthcare budgets globally.

This isn't just numbers - it's lives lost, families shattered, and economies bleeding $2.5 trillion annually.

We have effective tools, but systemic failures - stigma, shortages, and underfunding - are letting millions of people down.

We can do better.

@KeithGrossman @RiverdaleCS Thank you for your devotion to the community and always being joyful …. It can change lives ❤️✨

[Keith A. Grossman @KeithGrossman]

In 2023, I had the honor of doing the Commencement Speech for the graduating class at @RiverdaleCS.

Titled, "How to navigate change and uncertainty," below is a condensed version of the speech removing sections related to gratitude and appreciation that do not make sense out of context.

My hope is that you find find value in this!

***

Wow.

What an honor.

In 1998, I was you.

And, I started at Riverdale in first grade, much like some of you.

If you told me 25 years later, I would be here speaking to the Class of 23, I would be speechless. I do not know if I would believe it. Personally, I am humbled.

Thank you.

As I thought about what I wanted to address today, I settled on the topic:

How to navigate change and uncertainty.

But when I thought about how to articulate that in a Commencement speech, I realized that I had no clue. So I figured if this was a speech about change and uncertainty, I would simply ask ChatGPT how to proceed!

So I opened up my computer and typed in: “What is the best structure for a Commencement Speech” and here is what it told me …

FIRST. You need an introduction. Grab people’s attention. Start with a captivating opening line, personal anecdote, or an inspiring quotation and establish a connection.

Hi! My name is Keith Grossman and I am the President of Enterprise at MoonPay, a Web3 Payments and Infrastructure company, and a Board Member of New York Cares and Griffin Cares. Previously, I was the President of TIME and prior to that was the Global Chief Revenue Officer at Bloomberg Media.

I went to Cornell where I was a Government Major and can find an appropriate Winston Churchill quote for any occasion and will use one to end this speech!

SECOND. ChatGPT suggested I “Establish a theme.” Which I agree - but now I feel as though I went out of order.

The theme of this speech is “How to navigate change and uncertainty.”

So I will jump to THIRD: “Share Personal Insights or Stories.”

My career has been defined by “Saves, Turnarounds and Evolutions.”

I never had the professional luxury of stability. When I joined the Media Industry in 2002, it was the height of the https://t.co/JhsLIEQgGE bust and I joined … WIRED - a brand focused on Technology!

On my very first day, I was informed that the CEO of Conde Nast had assured the team at WIRED the previous week that it was OK, that it would not close, but if you look back in history that assurance was empty. The reality was we were on our own and had to figure a way out of the mess we were in.

Everyday I came to work not knowing if the brand would survive.

Everyday I watched another technology brand go out of business.

Everyday I watched more people lose their jobs.

It was this exposure to the quote-on-quote “real world” that shaped my professional career and belief system.

And, I quickly realized the following:

The only thing you can control is your own time; and, what you do with it.

The best question you can repeatedly ask yourself is “Why?”

And, love is the only commodity you cannot hoard; the more you hold onto it, the less you have, the more you put out into the world, the more you get in return.

The last is a quote by Warren Buffett, however, it is a highly recommended way of operating through life.

Personally, I can look at my career and realize it was shaped by only a handful of moments that were presented to me because of hard work, focus and grit.

And, I specifically use the word GRIT because that is the title of Angela Duckworth’s incredible book and an underlying pillar of the Riverdale ethos:

Have a growth mindset.

Embrace curiosity.
