Tibetan spiritual leader the 14th Dalai Lama attended a Long Life Prayer offered to him by the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT) in the morning at the Main Tibetan Temple here in the north Indian hill town Dharamshala on Wednesday morning.

Thousands of Tibetans including monks and nuns and foreign followers from different parts of the world thronged to the monastery to pray for the long life of their beloved spiritual leader.

Nico Balthazae, a Buddhist follower said, “I am here to participate in this long-life prayer ceremony for his holiness the Dalai Lama. People have come here from all over the world. It was actually requested by Lama Zopa Rinpocher as it was his wish but unfortunately, he passed away. It is very important for us for his holiness to live long and to continue the Buddhist dharma practice and we are very happy to be here.”

Roger Kunsang, CEO of the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT) said, “We requested his holiness to accept this long life pooja and his holiness very kindly accepted and that’s what we offer here this morning.”

Earlier, in May, the Rajasthan Royals (RR) squad met spiritual leader the Dalai Lama on their arrival in Dharamshala to play against Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League.
