This past weekend His Holiness<\/strong> the Dalai Lama<\/strong> Tenzin Gyatso, came to Minnesota with a message of \u2018One Heart, One Mind, One Universe\u2019.<\/p>\n

The Dalai Lama<\/strong> completed a series of talks and appearances this past weekend at the University of Minnesota, where thousands showed up at each event. The Dalai Lama\u2019s visit was co-sponsored by both the University of Minnesota Center for Spirituality and Healing and the Tibetan American Foundation of Minnesota. Together they held four events from May 6-9, 2011.
\n<\/strong>TAFM held an official welcome for the Dalai Lama on May 8, with a \u201cMedicine Buddha Empowerment\u201d initiation, a cultural ceremony designed to promote personal and societal healing. The Dalai Lama<\/strong> spoke that afternoon in a public address on the topic, \u201cPeace Through Inner Peace,\u201d in addition to appearing before the Second International Tibetan Medicine Conference: Healing Mind & Body, a conference on Tibetan medicine and spirituality.<\/p>\n

The Dalai Lama<\/strong> said in his Sunday afternoon address that he has visited four America universities now that have launched a Tibetan Healing Initiative<\/strong> much like his own Tibetan Medical Institute of His Holiness in Dharmsala, India.<\/p>\n

Thupten Dadak<\/strong>, a founder of the TAFM, said the Sunday event was well-received, with about 6,000 tickets sold. The Saturday evening program drew more than 8,000 participants.<\/p>\n

After 300 years of ruling under the Dalai Lama<\/strong>, the 14th Dalai Lama has decided that he wants Tibetan to operate under a purely democratic system. He will remain the spiritual leader as the 14th reincarnation of the Buddha of Compassion.
