Sunday

His Holiness Dalai Lama at Tibetan Childrens Village

Today we went to the Tibetan Children's Village (TCV) to listen to His Holiness Dalai Lama give some teachings. We couldn't go inside because all of the inside spaces were reserved for the students from all around India that the teachings were intended for. But we sat overlooking the tent that was erected for those sitting outside (below). I love the way dogs and cows (or buffalos) just wander through anywhere in India!!!



His Holiness stopped for some photos will some school children as he left.



And we managed to receive some blessings as he drove out (I hope)!!



To get to TCV we had to walk along a small forest path for about 20 minutes. This is Venerable Rinzin (below) showing us the short cut. He is a Kopan monk that is staying at Tushita for a few years to study and learn English so he can be a translator.



And here he is again feeding this poor crippled monkey on the path from Tushita to McLeod Ganj. He is so kind, he helped us to find an apartment today for when we move out of Tushita.
