HH Dalai Lama  arrived at Bodh Gaya on Tuesday night on his annual fortnight-long visit of the pilgrim town during which he offers discourses besides organising the Kala Chakra initiation ceremony.  He told ,

“We have the power of truth. Chinese communists have the power of gun. In the long run the power of truth is much stronger than the power of gun,” came the message of His Holiness the Dalai Lama from Bodh Gaya this morning.

The Tibetan spiritual leader who arrived here yesterday was addressing a group of journalists during his pilgrimage to the Mahabodhi temple.

“China is traditionally a Buddhist country with the biggest number of Buddhist population in China. Many of the Chinese are following Tibetan Buddhism. Three years ago, Peking University conducted a survey on the Buddhist population in China. Their report concluded that there are about 300 million Buddhists; many of these Buddhists are well educated. These are the official report and the number of Chinese Buddhist population is increasing ever since.”

“So things are changing now. Moreover, many of the Chinese Buddhists consider Tibetan Buddhism as truly a Nalanda tradition and that tradition is very scientific religion,” His Holiness said.

With flowers and traditional Tibetan scarves, more than thousands of Tibetans, Himalayans and foreign devotees lined up the street leading to the holy site to greet the Tibetan spiritual leader.

On 2 January, His Holiness will give teachings on Gyalsey Thokme Sangpo’s Thirty-Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva (laklen sodunma). On 3 January, His Holiness will confer Avalokiteshvera Initiation (chenresig wang). From 4 to 6 January, His Holiness will complete The Wheel of Teachings on Manjushri Empowerments (jamyang Choekhor) based on its proximal lineage that he began in Bodhgaya in December 2018. The teachings will be held at the Kalachakra Teaching Ground in Bodh Gaya.
