このコンテンツについて
The past few days have seen a whirlwind of activity and reverence around His Holiness the Dalai Lama, reflecting both personal milestones and the ever-present global resonance of his teachings. Most notably, the world is still abuzz from the international celebrations marking his 90th birthday, with the French Senate hosting a landmark event attended by government officials, diplomats, and Tibet support groups. The gathering honored the Dalai Lama as the “hope and resilience of Tibetans worldwide” while screening a short film on his life, recited prayers, and staged Tibetan cultural performances—underscoring his enduring message of compassion in a fractured world, as shared by the Office of Tibet Brussels and covered in recent European news reports.
Meanwhile, Emory University in Atlanta marked his birthday with the global launch of “Compassion Shift,” convening scholars, philanthropists, and community leaders over three days to unveil new digital tools for scaling compassion-based education. Lobsang Tenzin Negi, Executive Director of Emory’s Compassion Center, succinctly framed the effort as a deliberate movement to embed compassion into the fabric of society, with avid support from the Piramal Foundation and global thought leaders. The event celebrated three decades of partnership between Emory and the Dalai Lama, cementing his status as an icon of contemplation and ethics.
On the spiritual front, Dharamsala saw long-life prayers offered for him by devotees from Korea and ten Southeast Asian countries, with Buddhist leaders unanimously declaring him the “universal supreme patriarch of the Buddhist world.” The Dalai Lama responded in kind, reflecting on his life's study and his core practice of compassion and altruism. This was followed by grassroots ceremonies in Sikkim—thousand-fold prayers were organized by local monks and committees, reinforcing his spiritual influence at the region’s sacred sites.
Administrative duties remained punctuated by high-level meetings. The Sikyong briefed the Dalai Lama personally on the accomplishments of the 16th Kashag, with public reassurances of his contentment over current Tibetan leadership. The United Nations Human Rights Council, meanwhile, saw EU and other member states raise pressing concerns about China’s repression in Tibet and underscore their insistence that China not interfere in reincarnation processes—an issue recently spotlighted by the Central Tibetan Administration President, who urged Canada to take a stance.
Social media and global Tibetan communities rallied in parallel, with hashtags for the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday trending through events in Switzerland, Portland, and Sydney, while awareness campaigns highlighted his four principal commitments, especially in Indian settlements and via exhibitions in France and Shimla. No major controversies have surfaced, though the mysterious disappearance of Buddhist figures in Vietnam and continued detentions in Tibet were noted in advocacy circles. In sum, this week’s headlines place the Dalai Lama not simply as a revered figure, but as a living force for justice, education, and cross-cultural compassion whose biography is still in dynamic evolution.
