In a message on the first day of Losar (Tibetan New Year), the Dalai Lama said, “Despite facing great difficulties in exile and living under a powerful Communist Chinese regime, our people, the majority of whom are in Tibet, have remained unscathed while I have been the leader.

The faith and aspiration of our people have remained undiminished Despite undergoing great difficulties in exile and living under a powerful Communist Chinese regime, the majority of whom are in Tibet, while I have been the leader.”

He said that although the Communist Chinese rulers, after the ‘(so-called) peaceful liberation’, had wished that “we Tibetans forget our religious faith, we have held onto our convictions and our culture even more firmly this is very good. Today, there is a renewed interest in Buddhism, not only among Tibetans, but even among some Chinese,” he said.
