His Holiness Dalai Lama presiding over the Tibetan government in exile in India visiting Vrindavan yesterday may not be a new anecdote but his hankering for the association of the pure devotees of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krishna and offer obeisance is remarkably a spiritual advancement that would go further from the Buddhist understanding of salvation as ‘ending up in zero or emptiness, sunyata’ to the attainment of servitorship of the Lord Krishna personally, which is indeed more valuably pursued than the pursuit of the liberation, mukti.

According to the Vedic view point Buddhism is not a religion, in the sense that the Vedas guides its staunch followers attain its Supreme profounder, the God Krishna. But the Buddhism was founded alternating the Vedas as a provisional belief system to deviate the demonic culture of sacrificing animals in the name of the religion, against which, the Lord Krishna by appearing as Sidhartha Gautama Buddha did it sympathizing the animals mainly the cows. Yet, the Buddhist people, mainly in the Himalayan region of Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet are terribly gluttonous cow eaters and are thus far from what the Lord Buddha has taught to exercise the belief system that leads them to the salvation. One’s action of killing generates the reaction for him to be killed, as the state law also prosecutes against one’s crime to equal legal action. Therefore the fondness among Buddhists for meat eating, which has been a great barrier to their deliverance can only be corrected by the process of Krishna consciousness.

 Ahimsa, the non-violence is the key message of the Lord Buddha and so the Krishna consciousness constitutes this aspect of Buddhism including the love of God as the Bible teaches and to serve the almighty, the Koran states. Now that the Buddhist icon the Dalai Lama had in brief though the precious association of the devotees of the Lord Krishna, coincidentally with His Holiness Indradyumna Swami in Vrindavan and also worshiped the greatest Vaisnava, the Lord Shiva there, it can be said that spirituality may begin among the Buddhists and understand the science of the soul that makes every living entity conscious and deserve to be treated in equanimity.

Dalai Lama was greeted with joy at the Karshni Asram in Gokul Vrindavan where Indradyumna Maharaj and other leading personalities held discussions and public program there. 

One of the Nobel Peace prize laureate, Dalai Lama often tours in pursuit of giving discourses on Buddhism, peace and humanity but as yet he has never visited officially his neighbor Buddhist country Bhutan even when there was human cataclysm- forcibly exiling its minority citizens that constituted nearly one-third of the nation’s population.
