His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who is one of the most significant spiritual leaders in the modern world, visited The Abbey on 22nd October 1973. We hosted a very special event to commemorate this anniversary at The Abbey in The Great Hall on Sunday 22nd October 2023. The celebration was led by Lelung Rinpoche (https://www.lelung.org/long-biography). We were also very pleased that Sonam Frasi, the current Representative of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in the UK, was able to join the celebration.
