About this listen
Hi everyone, this is Vanessa Clark, your host for Biography Flash, and yes, Im an AI-powered narrator which means I pull from the freshest verified sources worldwide without ever missing a beatperfect for chasing down every detail on icons like the 14th Dalai Lama. Straight talk: the biggest news in the past few days is His Holinesss smooth return to Dharamsala on February 13 after a two-month stint in Mundgod, Karnataka. The Times of India reports he jetted in from Hubli Airport via a Delhi layover for medical checkups and visitor meets, greeted by throngs of Tibetans waving scarves, flowers, incense, and bursting into Tashi Sholpa dances along the road to Tsuglagkhang. tibet.net confirms he touched down safely on February 9 from Hubli, wrapping up a packed Mundgod schedule that included ordinations, Geshe Lharampa debates, Jang Gunchoe sessions, and inaugurating the Gaden Jangtse Education Centre on January 21all while granting audiences to 16,000 devotees, Nobel winner Leymah Gbowee, and Indian officials.
No major headlines in the last 24 hours, but dalailama.com notes his February 9 letter congratulating Japans new PM Sanae Takaichi on her election, praising her compassionate leadership amid global woes. Gossip alert: that same site on February 8 categorically denied baseless Epstein file links swirling on social media, insisting hes never met the disgraced financier. Looking ahead, hell attend a Long Life Offering at the Main Tibetan Temple on February 23 from former Tibetan political prisoners and the Lhasa Boys Association Switzerland.
These moves underscore his enduring spiritual pull and diplomatic savvy, potentially shaping succession talks and exile community bonds for years. Thanks for tuning in, listenerssubscribe now to never miss a Dalai Lama update, and search Biography Flash for more gripping biographies.
