 | | It was exactly 90 years ago, in 1906, that our home region and our monastic seat, Kumbum chamba-ling, were graced by the visit of His Holiness Thubten Gyatso, the 13th Dalai Lama. |
 | | Now, 90 years later, at this auspicious time of Your Holiness' visit, Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, I am honored to offer you these words of welcome-moreover, I recognize in this, something of the wishes and hopes of His Holiness Thubten Gyatso, the 13th Dalai Lama. |
 | | Furthermore, I was born as your brother, in the same village and to the same parents. |
