DALAI LAMA ON INDIAN CIVILIZATION

Dalai Lama on Indian Civilization

Praising India, he said it didn't need to look out for answers.
"Indian civilization, when compared to the western and Chinese
civilizations, is much more sophisticated. It is the world's
treasure." He repeatedly described himself as a chela of Indian
tradition. "I describe Indians as the guru, we (Tibetans) are chelas
of Indian guru," he said. "Essentially we learn from you."
