The first-ever International Conference on the Cultural and Historical Significance of His Holiness the Sixth Dalai Lama, Gyalwa Tsangyang Gyatso, began with the sacred Mandala offering. Born in 1683, in the 17th century, His Holiness continues to inspire humanity through his timeless teachings, poetry, and compassion. May the eternal light of the Sixth Dalai Lama, the light of love, poetry, and inner wisdom continue to guide humanity toward peace and spiritual awakening. | Pema Khandu
