Switzerland. Basel. St. Jakobshalle. His Holiness the Dalai Lama during the Buddhist ritual. Avalokiteshvara (Chenresig in tibetan) particularly embodies compassion of a Buddha indiscriminately directed to all sentient beings. Avalokiteśvara is a bodhisattva who embodies the compassion of all Buddhas. Avalokiteśvara is one of the more widely revered bodhisattvas in mainstream Mahayana Buddhism, as well as unofficially in Theravada Buddhism. 8.02.2015 © 2015 Didier Ruef

The 14th and current Dalai Lama is Tenzin Gyatso, recognized since 1950. He is the current Dalai Lama, as well as the longest-lived incumbent, well known for his lifelong advocacy for Tibetans inside and outside Tibet. Dalai Lamas are amongst the head monks of the Gelug school, the newest of the schools of Tibetan Buddhism. The Dalai Lama, also called " Ocean of Wisdom" is considered as the incarnation of Chenresi, the Bodhisattva of compassion who is also the protective deity of Tibet. 7.02.2015 © 2015 Didier Ruef
