Dharamsala, HP, India, 23 August 2010 (Indo-Asian News Service) - Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama is 75 but still a true globetrotter, so much so that he doesn't really need to unpack. He's made 11 trips just in the last seven months - to places within India and outside to speak on peace, non-violence, Buddhism and even environmental concerns. And last year, the Dalai Lama made 20 visits abroad including the US, Germany, Italy, Japan, Switzerland, Canada and France. A light traveler, his quest for generating awareness on spiritual and Tibetan issues carries him from place to place even as China tries to forewarn the countries he plans to visit.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama Prays for the Loss of Lives in the Floods
August 14th 2010
I have been deeply saddened by the loss of many lives and the destruction of property caused by the floods in Pakistan and India. I have offered my condolences and prayers as well as token donations towards relief and rescue work. I am also very sad that there has been a massive landslide in Drugchu (Chinese: Zhouqu) in the south-east of Kanlho (Chinese: Gannan) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu province in which many people have lost their lives. It is reported that this is one of the deadliest incidents in decades. I understand that Premier Wen Jiabao visited Zhouqu to oversee relief and rescue work. I pray for all those who have lost their lives and offer my sympathy and heart-felt condolences to the bereaved and all those who have been affected by this natural calamity.
