On 6th July we will mark the 90th birthday of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the beginning of the ‘Year of Compassion’ in his honour. As a spokesperson for peace, compassion and human values, His Holiness occupies a special place in the hearts of millions - Buddhist and non-Buddhist alike. In Rigpa we will celebrate his dharma accomplishments by practising together and several centres will host festive activities.
