'Whatever the Chinese may say, I have my own karma' — Dalai Lama | Radio Free Asia (RFA)

Описание: “I've gone through lots of ups and downs, but there’s nothing wrong with my health and my determination,” said Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama as he addressed thousands of devotees. “So whatever the Chinese may say, I have my own karma.”

The Tibetan spiritual leader also said he would live to be 130 years old, speaking through a translator.

On Wednesday, September 10, 2025, Tibetan youth worldwide, Ithaca Namgyal Buddhist Institute and Lhokha (Southern Tibet) Association offered a Long Life Prayer to Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama for his continued health and longevity. The ceremonial gathering took place at the Main Temple in Dharamsala, India.

Arriving by golf cart from his residence, the Dalai Lama presided over the well decorated ceremonial gathering attended by thousands of devotees including abbots of religious sects, monks and nuns, administrative leaders, students and general public.

Among 5,000 Tibetan youth registrants across 33 countries, approximately 1,000 traveled in person to join the ritual as a demonstration of respect and appreciation.
