Visiting the Dalai Lama

OUR journey to visit His Holiness the Dalai Lama began with a flight to Amritsar, India on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.

A small delegation of Malaysians, alongside friends from Sweden and America, had been very generously invited by the Office of the Dalai Lama in Southeast Asia (based in Singapore) and the Vajrayana Buddhist Council of Malaysia to have an audience with the Dalai Lama. This delegation consisted of representatives from Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (Abim), the Allied Coordinating Council of Islamic NGOs Malaysia (Accin), the Interfaith Spiritual Fellowship (Insaf), the Interactive Muslimah Association (Iman), Global Peace Mission (GPM), the International Students of Islamic Psychology (Isip), and Projek #BangsaMalaysia.
