The Kalachakra Initiation at Bodh Gaya which His Holiness the Dalai Lama was scheduled to give in January next year has been postponed for one year. The Kashag, or Cabinet, of the Central Tibetan Administration asked for the postponement in response to requests from the Heads of the four schools of Tibetan Buddhism and Bon tradition, and Tibetans inside and outside Tibet, that His Holiness’s programme should be less exhaustive.
