When The Dalai Lama Met A Child

April 12, 2022 16:51 IST

For two years, His Holiness The Dalai Lama kept away from the public. His medical team advised the 86-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader that it would be inadvisable in the times of coronavirus to meet people who come from all over the world to see him.

Last month, on March 17, His Holiness appeared in public for the first time since the pandemic began to deliver a sermon on the Jataka Tales.
