Dalai Lama's Successful Knee Surgery at HSS in New York Brings Hope.




The Dalai Lama underwent a successful knee surgery at the renowned Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in New York. His arrival in the United States was marked by a warm welcome from thousands of well-wishers, demonstrating the immense global admiration and respect he commands.

The 88-year-old spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism has been dealing with knee issues for some time. According to Radio Free Asia (RFA), medical experts had suggested that a successful surgery on his right knee would not only alleviate pain and improve mobility in that knee but also help the left knee function better. They anticipated that with successful surgery and proper rehabilitation, His Holiness might be able to walk properly within three weeks.

The surgery, performed by a team of expert surgeons at HSS, was aimed at addressing the degeneration and pain that had been affecting his mobility. The Hospital for Special Surgery is globally recognized for its expertise in orthopedics and joint care, making it a fitting choice for such an important procedure.

Today, after the surgery was successfully carried out, a short briefing on His Holiness's condition was provided by his personal physician, Dr. Tsetan, and his secretary, Mr. Tenzin Taklha. Dr. Tsetan assured the public that the surgery went smoothly without any complications. "His Holiness is in good spirits and recovering well," he said, highlighting the positive outcome of the procedure.

He also mentioned that His Holiness would be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, following a brief observation period to ensure his recovery progresses as expected.

The news of the successful surgery has brought a wave of relief and joy to Tibetans and followers of the Dalai Lama worldwide. Many have been holding continuous prayer sessions, known as Men Lha Sung Nag, praying for his swift recovery. These prayers are a testament to the deep spiritual connection and reverence that millions of people have for the Dalai Lama.

The Dalai Lama’s health and well-being have always been of great concern to his followers. As a symbol of peace, compassion, and wisdom, his presence is a source of immense inspiration and guidance. His teachings, centered on kindness and non-violence, have had a profound impact globally, transcending cultural and religious boundaries.

The Dalai Lama's resilience and strength are often attributed to his deep spiritual practices and disciplined lifestyle. Despite his advanced age, he remains active in promoting humanitarian values and engaging with global leaders on issues of peace and compassion.

The successful surgery at HSS marks another milestone in the Dalai Lama's journey, ensuring that he continues to inspire and lead with his enduring message of compassion and non-violence. As he recovers and regains his mobility, his followers around the world eagerly await his return to his regular activities and teachings.

In the coming weeks, as His Holiness completes his recovery and rehabilitation, the prayers and positive thoughts of millions will continue to be with him. The global Tibetan community, along with numerous admirers and supporters worldwide, remain united in their devotion and hope for the Dalai Lama’s continued health and well-being.

This successful surgery is not just a medical triumph but also a moment of collective joy and optimism for all those who hold the Dalai Lama dear.

Kunga Dhoedon. India-China Conflict:  India enjoyed the borderless exchange of culture, goods, and language for a long time with the Tibet till 1959. Both states mutually respect each other sovereignty. Yet, in the amid of cold war chaos and the newly recognized nation India (1949) incapable to extend its hand to the neighborhood country (snow cap mountain) has to accept the fate to consider China as a new neighboring country for almost seventy years to date.

The Silk Road was not only served as a major trade route between both countries but also credited for facilitating the spread of Buddhism from India to East Asia.
