- His Holiness the Dalai Lama gives the Opening Prayer in the U.S. Senate. From C-SPAN2 coverage, watch the complete Senate session here: www.c-span.org/video/?318155-1...
As a Tibetan, I want to thank the US Senate for inviting HH the Dalai Lama to give the Opening Prayer today and thank the Senate and the USA for their support in our struggle for human rights, freedom and democracy. Long life to His Holiness, God bless the America, and free Tibet!
America is surely losing fast, what it took so long to give to others. Cherish what you have, and above all avoid the same mistakes of allowing it all to be taken away.
Tibet is free🇨🇳
"For as long as space remains, for as long as sentient beings remain, until then may I too remain, to dispel the miseries of the world". Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Jew, Hindu, or whatever belief system you follow, fill your heart with love for all beings, and joy will fill your soul, and you shall be at peace.
If only more people knew this great truth. Love and goodness to all.
What a wonderful blessing to have the Dalai Lama share his prayers to the US Senate and to the world! And I love the gentle humor of the Dalai Lama;-)
Long live H.H. the Dalai Lama ! Thank you for sharing this wonderful video ! Thumps up for C-SPAN !

Thank you Dalai Lama. If you have made it to the U.S. Senate perhaps you are one step closer to the hearts and minds of our world leaders. I give credit first to you and yours and secondly to those open to accept and listen. Well Done !!
Great respect for this man many don’t understand the culture. It’s beautiful! Long
Live hh Dalai Lama
First Prayer:
With our thoughts we make our world.
Our mind is central and precedes our deeds.
Speak or act with a pure mind and happiness will follow you
like a shadow that never leaves.
Second Prayer:
May there be joy in the world with bountiful harvest and spiritual wealth. May every good fortune come to be and may our wishes be fullfilled.
Third Prayer:
As long as space remains, and as long as sentient beings remain, until then may I too remain and help dissipate the misery of the world.
correction: DISPEL instead of dissipate
Thanks 🙏. Peace be unto all.
What a beautiful prayer by a beautiful man. May this prayer remind this country's leaders of their true role. May their thoughts, words and deeds be joy filled and may they all help to dispel the misery of man.
May each of those who are offended by the prayer, or by the Dalai Lama's attendance at the Senate, may they each mind their thoughts, their words and their deeds and may they each follow Christ's command to love each other.

It feels like my life has changed in such a beautiful way just from seeing his teachings.

oh, how sweet. and so noble and brave of the senate to let him speek and pray. brave because of the chinese and noble to extend the tradition of the prayer to other faiths as well. that is pure secularism. america, so proud of you..
Im curious to know wich gov employees aplauded and wich who did not. Thank you for bringing your prayer and wisdom to the senate the house can use it too.
Beautiful to the His Holiness The Dalai Lama within the Senate. I love to see the US freedom of religion at work.
On the "pursuit of happiness", one thought: "if it's your horse, don't chase it".
Wow good humanity
Long Life to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
"For as long as space remains, For as long as sentient beings remain, Until then may I too remain. To dispel the miseries of the world."
Thank you x 3 His Holiess Dalai Lama and so it is so be it.
Amen
very impressive!
Thoughts do create - intentions matter - interesting that the senate invited the Dalai Lama - shows intention?
The Senate has an opening prayer? I thought the USA had a separation between religion and government?
The Congress does not recognize any official religion, in accordance with the United States Constitution's Establishment Clause, however they do have a general opening prayer which is read at the beginning of each session in spiritual fashion rather than in religious. In accordance with this delineated freedom, a Christian preacher, Jewish Rabbi, Muslim Imam, Buddhist Monk, or any other religious official may offer the prayer as a means of emphasizing the hopeful mission of the Congress for that session. Typically, the benediction is given in reference to any and all gods, as His Holiness does here. There is technically no place in the United States Constitution which specifically states "separation between religion and government," so this is not in violation of federal precedent. This is also a tradition which dates back to the formation of the United States government, and frankly all other age-old governments, when religion was a more uniform and unquestioned concept.
hope the americans learnt something
Yes, that Buddhism isn’t the answer.
THANK YOU BASED DALAI LAMA
Yeah Americans learn a lot from Dalai. If the going gets rough we too can talk to our dead guy dorjes through epileptic sheizured oracles lol
what a great nation the usa has become :D
i hope we see a muslim leader leading the congress prayer one day.
what
not even one fucking cheer.... sad love you Buddhist buddy
the prayer in congress has for decades been offered to the only true God Jesus Christ our country was founded on Christian principles and that’s the way it should stay
The Dalai Lama is more Christlike than any of the "Christians" commenting here with their fear and their judgment. He didn't offer prayer to "false" gods, he didn't do anything that any Christian should even object to. His prayer said "Help disband the misery of the world." For those of you who call yourselves Christians and then spew your vitriol and your radicalism, that should be your aim as well. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. Filthy hypocrites.
We are here to bear the testimony of the Truth that we are all filthy hypocrites and sinners, but by the Grace of the only true living God through Jesus Christ, we are saved. We are here to warn you because we really care about you.
The Dalai llama isn’t holy and like all of us needs Jesus Christ as his personal saviour.
I respect Buddhism as a philosophy. But why did the Lama offer his prayer to Buddha and all other gods? Who are these other gods? He did not name them! What does he really believe in?
To my knowledge. In Buddhism, everyone is God. Its a pretty nice thought really. Don't worship a single, judgmental God, a God that will send you to eternal hell if you do not accept them.... Worship and love each other and yourself.
He said that to not offend anyone. However, after reading some of these comments, some would be offended regardless of what he said. What does he believe in? Peace., loving-kindness, compassion
learn trumpers learn. End The Lie embrace truth
Jer 1:14 Then Adonai said unto me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.
Jer 1:15 For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith Adonai; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.
Jer 1:16 ******** And I will utter My judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken Me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.**********
Wow!! Wow!! There's a change in America!! Go Obama -Horus!!
"pan-religion"....
:(
JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND ONLY YESHUA/JESUS WILL WE WORSHIP!
Was his message one that Christ would find wrong?
Believe as you will, but the Lama's message was that of love and goodness.
You may not agree with the method of worship, but both the Christ and the Buddha spoke near-identical messages.
Listen to his words and see the meaning, not the delivery.
ThoughtUncommon
"the Buddha" is not Elohim/God in the flesh and also it did not die and rise up from the grave in 3 days. "the Buddha" did not speak the earth planet stars and all that is seen and unseen into existence. There is only 1 true Elohim. The others are counterfeits. All other so called gods are in the grave still and will be judged by the only true one. Yahweh,
Actually, closer to source material, the name would be Brahma, from the Hindu faith; not Yahweh. These tales are from long before the stories of Yeshua Ben Hur/Jesus and the Bible.
Yeshua was a teacher along the same lines of Siddartha.
I'm not going to try to explain it to you, your mind is made up.
Boo hoo a Buddhist opened with a prayer cry some more you douche
Buddha by no mean is God. Dalai Lama should know that very well. --There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.(Proverbs 14:12). Buddhism is one the most deluded and dangerous worldviews. The teachings kill your soul silently.
Hm... not sure you know anything about Buddhism.
Lmfao another Chinese govt paid maniac trying to undermine His Holiness
Again I'm amazed at the audacity of a group of people we elect to represent us slapping the majority of us in the face by allowing pagan prayer over our government. We allow a prayer that in it's content is directly opposed to biblical teaching. Forgive us God for what we have become and move over this land with revival and change the hearts of this land which You so richly have blessed.
WHAT A SHAME!!!I am a Chinese chrisitan living in China mainland. When I heard this, I feel shame for A CHRISITIAN NATION as US. The congress should belong to Jesus. Why did you invite an IDOLWORSHIPER to give the opening prayer?
We are not a Christian nation. There is no mandated state religion. Each person is free to give God whatever name they want. At the end, we all pray to the same God. I don't see anything shameful in the Dalai Lama's prayer. He spoke beautiful words of love -- not judgement and shaming like you did. May be you can learn something from him.
Because Zuowei Li, the USA traded Father God for the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and the pride of life. This Country is under the judgement of God and great the destruction there will be when He pours out His wrath. Shalom brother
I LOVE US. MAY GOD HAVE MERCY AND BLESS US.
Zuowei Li The U.S. is a country that legalizes the killing unborn babiesby the millions and has legalized in most states Homosexual marriage to mention only 2.
This country, as I live here and I know, has removed prayer from schools and teaches children in the 4th and 5th grades how to not become pregnant, and even allows them to cross dress, This country has wandered away from the Bible and unless THEY REPENT, they will be thrown into the Lake of Fire!
Luk 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
Luk 17:27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
Luk 17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
Luk 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
Luk 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
THE U.S. NEEDS TO REPENT AS JUDGEMENT IS COMING TO IT!
Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Rev 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
MAY GOD HAS MERCY ON US. AND RECOVER HER.
Amen
Amen ...and a lot of loving prayers.....
