The Dalai Lama at 80
Clip: 8/20/2015 | 7m 30s
The Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader is unsure the world needs a new Dalai Lama.
He says he is "totally retired" from any political responsibilities as the leader of the exiled Tibetan Buddhist community, but old age has not diminished his role as an active and outspoken advocate for world peace and inner happiness. The Dalai Lama says all major religions teach the practice of compassion, love, forgiveness, and tolerance, and he’s not sure there is a need for a new Dalai Lama.
