With the Dalai Lama having celebrated his 89th birthday, the global Tibetan community is on the cusp of a significant transition.
Some say it is an anachronism. To some others it is a mere fancy project. A considerable few are not sure about the future of this renovated legacy and they fume at the brouhaha over it. But not many, in their senses, can dispute the glamour and pride associated with the brand name ‘Nalanda’ that is synonymous with the grand glory of ancient Indian civilisation.
After a successful knee replacement surgery at a top New York hospital, Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama is rapidly recovering and able to walk, two of his personal physicians said on Thursday.
The proclamation came close on the heels of the visit of a high-level United States Congressional delegation to India from June 16 to 20.
The Tibetan spiritual leader said we must pay attention to deforestation and protect the environment better.
The two received a special audience from His Holiness the Dalai Lama at his residence earlier today during which the request was made as per Thiksay Rinpoche.
Till now, Dalai Lama has only granted virtual and in-person audiences from his residence in Dharamshala.
Nobel laureate and Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama on Thursday said Tibetans cannot resort to violence and banish the Chinese out of our land, however, they can definitely learn to coexist peacefully through the approach of middle way policy while we continue to preserve our own identity.
Strategically, awarding the Bharat Ratna to the 14th Dalai Lama would be a far more effective way of signalling the Indian establishment’s refusal to be cowed down by China while at the same time continuing to maintain its policy of recognising Tibet as an autonomous region of the People’s Republic of China.
