One cannot comment on the act of the Tibetan saint as why he chose to bless a boy by kissing and at the same time asking to suck his tongue but it was not a mere act that can go ignored by people in general.
But the Tibetan spiritual personality has tendered an unconditional apology to all concerned for any awkwardness caused by his act of allegedly kissing a boy
The entire incident was before the preening cameras and understandably caused a kind of embarrassment to all present including the boy’s family. Then it goes viral and comments were obviously came difficult for the Tibetan Holi man.
The incident took place on 1 March at an event organised at the Dalai Lama temple in McLeodganj, a suburb of Himachal Pradesh’s Dharamshala, for M3M Foundation.
As part of the event, Dalai Lama interacted with more than 100 students and officials of M3M Foundation, the philanthropic arm of M3M Group, and gave them tips on how to be successful in life, according to a press release issued by the foundation.
While many on Twitter pointed out that sticking your tongue at someone is a traditional form of greeting or sign of respect, several others expressed how uncomfortable they were with the gesture – and sought an explanation from the Dalai Lama.
