This, he said, would be an expression of their deep sense of gratitude to the people and Government of India for the immense love and generosity they received in this country, enabling them to preserve their distinct culture and identity as a community and nation.

Speaking on Indo-Tibetan Cultural and Political Relations and Future of Tibet, Prof. Rinpoche likened India and Tibet relations as between one soul and two bodies. The entire Tibetan culture owed its origin and foundation to the culture of India.
