Dalai Lama delivers religious discourse in Dharamsala

Dharamsala, Sept 30 : Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama delivered religious discourse here today.

Organised by the 'Tibetan Buddhist Center Singapore', the five-day discourse is the first event of Dalai Lama, after recovering from abdominal pain that sent him to hospital last month.

People from across the world thronged here to attend the sermons.

Dana, a native of Switzerland said," it is important for the Chinese also because there is an increased interest in Buddhism in China and if they request his holiness is open to give teachings to everyone without any discrimination."

The focal point of the sermons was his teachings on Nagarjuna's Commentary on Bodhicitta (Jangchup Semdrel) and Kamalashila's the Middling Stages of Meditation (Gomrim Barpa).

The Dalai Lama has called a special meeting of Tibetan exiles in November or December to discuss this year's political unrest in Tibet and the future of the Tibetan movement.
