The inaugural ceremony of the four-day International Conference on the Cultural and Historical Significance of His Holiness the Sixth Dalai Lama, Gyalwa Tsangyang Gyatso, was held on Wednesday attended by scholars, monks and delegates from India and across the world.
“The first-ever International Conference began with the sacred Mandala offering. This gathering marks a global effort to build a clearer and well-researched understanding of his life, legacy and timeless relevance,” Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu, who attended the inaugural ceremony of the conference took to social media later to express his thoughts.
“Offered prayers at the sacred Tawang Monastery ahead of the International Conference on Gyalwa Tsangyang Gyatso, the Sixth Dalai Lama born here in Tawang. A blessed beginning to honour his timeless spiritual and cultural legacy,” Khandu stated on X (formerly Twitter).
“Tawang, the birthplace of His Holiness the Sixth Dalai Lama, Gyalwa Tsangyang Gyatso, today becomes the centre of a global academic dialogue on his cultural, historical, and spiritual legacy,” the Chief Minister stated.
‘Not many, even across the Monyul and Buddhist world, knows much about the cultural, spiritual and literary depth of His Holiness the Sixth Dalai Lama.
The world remembers his poetry, but not the fullness of his teachings and wisdom. It is time that changes,” he stated.“Born in 1683, in the 17th century, His Holiness continues to inspire humanity through his timeless teachings, poetry, and compassion. May the light of the Sixth Dalai Lama guide humanity forever,” he added
