Dalai Lama Expresses Determination to Live 110 Years During Long-life Ceremony in Dharamsala, India. Reflecting a very positive attitude, he said: "The First Dalai Lama, Gyalwa Gendun Drup, who lived to be 84, had no wish to be born in a pure land. Since I have the opportunity to benefit beings, it will be good if I’m able to live longer. I make prayers to him for his blessing that I may live another 10–15 years," He told visitors that during a dream, a Tibetan Goddess told him that he would live to be 110 years of age. Noting that he has dedicated his life to the service of others, in particular the welfare of the Tibetan people, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate observed:
“I feel that I have contributed something for the well being of people around the world, and in particular to the Tibetan people and their cause, over the last 60 years.”
In good health, the Dalai Lama expressed wishes to continue being present on the planet in order to be of help to others.
