 The 14th Dalai Lama Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

As of late October 2025, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama remains a figure of immense global significance, with recent activities reflecting both his enduring leadership and the challenges faced by his followers. The past few days were marked by a significant gesture of diplomacy, as he wrote to Sanae Takaichi on October 22 to congratulate her on becoming Japans first woman Prime Minister, praising her decades of public service and the nation’s global role in peace and nuclear disarmament, a move widely covered by TibetTV and The Tibet Post.

On the community front, October 17 saw the Dalai Lama preside over the thirty-ninth Mind and Life Dialogue at his residence in Dharamsala. The event brought together over 120 scientists, scholars, business leaders, and contemplative practitioners for open exchange on the intersection of science and human consciousness, emphasizing his sustained effort to bridge science and spirituality. This gathering, as reported by his official office and highlighted on the Tibet This Week broadcast, illustrates his continued intellectual engagement and relevance, despite his advanced age.

Public appearances remain profound for those in attendance. Recent weeks saw the Dalai Lama attending a significant long-life offering ceremony on October 8 at the main temple in Dharamsala, escorted by representatives praying for his longevity, a poignant moment for the Tibetan community and its diaspora, chronicled on his official news site. Moments like these offer deep reassurance to his followers and signal his determination to remain present in public, even as he limits travel outside India.

Outside India, admiration continues. October 18 marked the eighteenth anniversary of his receiving the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal, celebrated by Tibetan communities in Massachusetts and India with commemorative gatherings and traditional performances, as reported by TibetTV. The honor remains a milestone in his international recognition for nonviolence and universal compassion. In Europe, Rome hosted a special screening of the Dalai Lama's documentary Wisdom of Happiness at Cinema Barberini just days ago, drawing attention from the international film and faith communities.

The shadow of Chinese repression looms large over his legacy. In a troubling development reported by ANI and the Tibetan Journal, Chinese authorities launched sweeping raids in the Amdo region of eastern Tibet last week, forcibly confiscating framed photos of the Dalai Lama from monasteries and private homes. These actions have left Tibetan residents fearful, underscoring Beijing’s relentless campaign to erase symbols of Tibetan faith and loyalty. While no arrests were confirmed, communication was cut off with the afflicted communities, leaving their present situation uncertain.

As for other news, there have been no confirmed new statements on his health, social media activity, or business dealings, and he remains focused on interfaith outreach and high-level correspondence. Speculation persists about potential future travels, but no immediate plans have been announced. According to firsthand reflections published by eHospice on October 23, recent visitors once again highlighted his warmth, humor, and sense of purpose, reinforcing the enduring public perception of his character.
