And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you.
Because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.

💐People live their lives not by their own minds, but out of fear of others' opinions and criticism. They do what society approves of, not what is right for them.
The world's strongest prison is not made of iron bars, but of the fear of others' opinions.🙏

@DalaiLama I pray that His Holiness’s esteemed doctors will concur that he needs more freedom, rest, & privacy from anyone who’s intruding on his privacy in his old age, and that he’s earned the right to decide how and with whom to spend his time.
Medical Bulletin — New Delhi, 8 June 2026 — His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s personal physicians—Dr. Tsetan D. Sadutshang, Dr. Tamdin Tsewang, Dr. Tsering Lhadon, and Dr. Tenzin Tsundue—together with Mr. Tenzin N. Taklha, Secretary to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, provided a brief update on His Holiness’s condition following his successful left knee replacement surgery earlier today at Apollo Hospital, New Delhi.
In June 2024, His Holiness underwent a successful right knee replacement surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City and made an excellent recovery.
Following today’s procedure, His Holiness returned to his hospital room in stable condition. His recovery is progressing well, and he remains in good spirits.
The medical, nursing, and administrative teams at Apollo Hospital have been providing exceptional care, support, and attention. We are deeply grateful for their professionalism, dedication, and kindness.
His Holiness the Dalai Lama was formally presented the Grammy Award at his residence in Dharamsala on June 3, 2026. by Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, accompanied by Amaan Ali Bangash, Ayaan Ali Bangash and Kabir Gill Sehgal.
