Buddhists all over the world are supporting the Dalai Lama, who has been hospitalized in New Delhi in the middle of a world tour to promote Buddhism. While these 10 articles below can’t accelerate the Dalai Lama’s healing, they can help to highlight Buddhism and our fascination with it.
The Dalai Lama, a Nobel laureate, underwent gallbladder surgery yesterday and is in stable condition. The spiritual leader is expected to be released from the hospital early next week.
For the unenlightened who know more about the Buddha Bar than Buddhism, the Buddha Bar-themed hotel and resort series are sure to please. And for individuals who prefer to ascribe to the religion of technology, the gilded Nokia N70 is a mobile phone even the Dalai Lama would smile upon.
More traditional followers of Buddhism will enjoy reading about the religion’s cultural impact. International Blogger’s Day for Burma and the Dalai Lama’s viral handshake revolution are two such examples of the power of the Internet to advance social issues.
