His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama,
please speak out against the brutal dog meat trade.
|

We are still waiting for
his holiness’s help.
His Holiness The Dalai Lama is a highly revered spiritual leader of Tibet and a human rights activist known throughout the world. He is the best known Buddhist leader of today and his teachings on practicing peace and compassion are followed worldwide.

He was born on 6 July 1935, to a farming family, in a small hamlet located in Taktser, Amdo, northeastern Tibet.
The Dalai Lamas are believed by Tibetan Buddhist followers to be manifestations of Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig, the Bodhisattva of Compassion and the patron saint of Tibet. Bodhisattvas are believed to be enlightened beings who have postponed their own nirvana and chosen to take rebirth in order to serve humanity.
We would like His Holiness to speak out against the practice of eating companion animals and the cruelty involved in the trades, and to share the Buddha’s teachings on compassion to animals to his followers and to the world.
