He can be welcomed by those who want him to visit sans any governmental trimmings.

It would be great if His Holiness could visit Sri Lanka! :)

This is a Buddhist country. We have extend our hands to anyone who wishes to visit our country, whether it is a Pope, muslim dignitary, Hindu high priest or any other. It is the Buddhist spirit. Dalai Lama has life long wish to visit Anuradhapura. Why cannot we allow him to come as a normal tourist? What is that got to do with Chinese Government?

Dalai Lama should be permitted to Visit Sri Lanka. He does not want state patronage. Only access to visit the Dalada maligawa and Auradhapura. Not the PORT CITY or its ruins !

Is this yahapalyana? Keep your political consideration out of weather to grant him visa or not.

Dalai Lama is not a religious figure, He is a political figure. Sri Lanka must not give visa him enter the country. China is more valuable to Sri lanka than Dalai Lama

We must not hurt China in any way.

The Dalai Lama is respected the world over as a spiritual leader and not a political one. He is not seeking political patronage from SL but just want s to visit the country as a pilgrim, unlike the Pope.

We can see whether we have a "yaha palanaya or "Yak Palanaya".

So is the Pope who heads the Vatican state and hence political figure
People Friday, 03 April 2015 11:34 AM
The government gives an extremely great welcome to the Catholic Pope, but denies visa to the greatest living Buddhist figure of our times. What are we to say?

Buddhism does not teach hate and being imbibed in politics.In Tibet two years ago, Dailai Lama priests looted and burnt Shops and caused riots. Dalai Lama movement is a politcal one with US support and CIA finacing to work against China. China had protested to even USA on Dalai Lama visit on state sponsered basis. As Buddhism teaches, middle path is the policy of life. But Dalai Lama lives in 5 star hotels and luxury travel which is contrary to the Buddhist principles.Sri Lanka has right to decide who to allow and who not to as Dalai Lama visit will hinder the relationship with China
