"Then I Am Not A Tibetan!" - Dalai Lama

Pointing at the Amdo Province in the Map of Tibet, His Holiness the Dalai Lama with all his wisdom and sense of humour told Sethu Das, Founder of Friends of Tibet (India) who escorted him to the exhibition hall: "This is the region where I was born, But China does not consider Amdo a part of Tibet...then I am not a Tibetan!" His Holiness was in Kochi to address a gathering of 'Friends of Tibet' members and 'Wellbeing' Beneficiaries at the Holiday Inn on November 25, 2012. The Dalai Lama spoke about 'The Art of Happiness' at this event organised by the 'Friends of Tibet Foundation for the Wellbeing'.
