Dalai Lama turns 86, commits to reviving ancient Indian knowledge
On his 86th birthday, the Dalai Lama urged people to practice non-violence and be compassionate toward each other

On his 86th birthday on Tuesday, the Dalai Lama said he's taken full advantage of India's freedom and religious harmony and is committed to reviving ancient Indian knowledge. In a virtual address from his residence in Himachal Pradesh's Dharamshala, he thanked people from across the globe who greeted him on his birthday and said he would continue to serve humanity and combat climate change.

Commitment
Taken full advantage of India's freedom, religious harmony: Dalai Lama

"Since I became a refugee and settled in India, I have taken full advantage of India's freedom and religious harmony," said the Dalai Lama. "I want to assure you that for the rest of my life I am committed to reviving ancient Indian knowledge," said the Tibetan spiritual leader, whose real name is Tenzin Gyatso.

Assurance
He also assured to work for protection of climate

"I really appreciate the Indian concept of secular values, not dependent on religion, such as honesty, karuna (compassion), and ahimsa (non-violence)," he said. "Now that it is my birthday, I want to express my deep appreciation to all my friends who have really shown love, respect, and trust. I can assure you...I'm committed to serving humanity and working to protect the climate," he added.

Compassion
Dalai Lama urged people to be compassionate

The Dalai Lama also urged people to practice non-violence and be compassionate toward each other. "I am committed to non-violence and compassion until my death. This is my offering to my friends. All my brothers and sisters should keep these two things in mind -- non-violence and compassion... On my birthday, this is my gift," he said.

Many people show me genuine friendship: Dalai Lama

"I am just one human being. Many people really show they love me. And many people actually love my smile. In spite of my old age, my face is quite handsome. Many people really show me genuine friendship," said the Dalai Lama.
