Dharamshala: His Holiness the Dalai Lama has expressed His sadness about the devastating earthquake that has struck Myanmar leading to the loss of so many precious lives while many others have been injured.
“I offer my condolences to the families of those who have lost loved ones and pray for all those in Myanmar and neighbouring countries such as Thailand who have been affected by this tragedy,” he wrote.
“Meanwhile, it is heartening to know that in addition to UN agencies, countries, such as India are, sending humanitarian aid to help the relief efforts in the quake zones.
“As a token of my solidarity with the people of Myanmar I have asked the Gaden Phodrang Foundation of the Dalai Lama to offer a donation through appropriate channels towards the rescue and relief efforts.”
His Holiness’s message concluded with His prayers.
