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 that India is the land of 'ahimsa' and 'karuna', ideas that can contribute much to the flourishing of humanity.
Speaking at the Moravian Church, the Dalai Lama spoke about the global warming that has engulfed Europe and various other countries. He stressed the need for helping each other as a universal responsibility that is very important in the existing scenario.
The Tibetan spiritual and temporal leader lauded the Ladakh Administration, CEC, MP Ladakh, and DC, Leh for their efforts towards the collective development of all sectors in the region.
The Tibetan leader’s comment is considered significant as it has come in Ladakh ahead of the 16th round of Corps Commander level meeting between India and China.
Replying to questions about China objecting to his visit to Ladakh, the Dalai Lama said that reaction is usual.
