On paper you probably think that Star Trek and Dalai Lama have little in common. In the end, the first is a perennial science fiction created by Gin Rhodenberri, and the second-spiritual leader of Tibet. However, everything required was an episode Next generation To gather the best of both worlds (so to speak) together. During the shoot Star Way: The next generation The episode of the 3rd “Team Ensigns”, producers and actors Trek met with the Dalai -Lama entourage, and they were even photographed with the Brent Spiner data actor.
Star Way and Dalai -Lama
This is one fairy tale that was almost lost over time, but, in irony, it turned out to be a movie about traveling time. Working on an article about The stellar path: First contactWriter -Salon Jeff Greenwald began to hear the rumors that Dalai -Lama visited many Next generation. It was a pretty wild rumor, but an unrestrained reporter knew that this famous monk owned a telescope as a child and was interested in cosmology in adulthood. Considering this, it wasn’t much to imagine his fans the most influential TV Scientific-fiction Franchise.
The most interesting part of this rumor was the claim that when he personally visited Star Way: The next generation Set, Dalai -Lama posed for the picture with Brent SpinerThe most famous on the Android game, data. In Greenwald, there were almost no ways to reject this rumor when he received an unexpected gift. Unnamed Voyager The employee heard about the reporter who tried to collect this story and sent him an original photo via FedEx.
After Greenwald received a photo, he found that the rumors were only half. The picture really shows that the Buddhist monk entourage for a set Star Way: Next generation And photographed with Brent’s back (which was in full suit and makeup as a data), but there were no signs of the Dalai -Lama itself. At the time Greenwald thought it was a fairly fair bet that this iconic religious figure should be a fan Next generation And that his tense schedule simply did not allow his personal tour on the set.
While Jeff Greenwald had to work a lot to get this magical photo, many Star Trek fans were much easier to see this picture of the Dalai -Lama entourage. All because the image was included in the release of the United Kingdom “Team Wiring”. If you did not have these pond ribbons, this image is completely surprised, and it continues to please the fans who recently discover it every year.
