An initiative to provide an insight into Tibetan culture and

"To meet the challenges of our times, I believe that humanity must
develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must
learn to work not just for our own individual self, family or nation,
but for the benefit of all mankind.
Today we are so interdependent, so closely interconnected with each
other, that without a sense of universal responsibility, a feeling of
universal brotherhood and sisterhood, and an understanding and belief
that we really are a part of one big human family, we cannot hope to
overcome the dangers to our very existence – let alone bring about
peace and happiness."
- His Holiness The Dalai Lama

Programme overview
In keeping with the rich Indian tradition of Gurukul, this project aims to enrich formal
education processes by facilitating inspirational contact with masters of different spiritual
traditions, particularly Tibetan Buddhism. The participants, mainly university students,
live in Tibetan monasteries and nunneries where they learn about Tibetan culture, art and
philosophy.
Participants have privileged access to teachers of ancient Buddhist traditions of Tibet. By
observing the teachers’ way of life at close quarters, students envision new definitions of
success, achievement and fulfillment.
Gurukul has been held annually for a month in Dharamsala, the home of HH the Dalai
Lama and the headquarters of the Central Tibetan Administration. Here, participants
receive an extended introduction to Tibetan culture and religion by actively engaging in
daily activities of Tibetan life in the monasteries and nunneries, and with communities in
exile. They have the privilege of an audience with His Holiness.
Through discourses, lectures, films and other learning media, Gurukul participants gain
insights into the innovative ways in which a community in exile copes with displacement
and strives to keep its traditions alive.
Gurukul participants will:
Live in Tibetan monasteries and nunneries.
Take classes in Tibetan Buddhism at the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives.
Engage in the dialogue between Modern Science and Ancient Buddhist
Philosophy.
Learn Tibetan handicrafts such as wood carving, thangka painting and appliqué.
Interact with Buddhist masters and Tibetan officials.
Experience traditional dialectic debates and spiritual chanting.
Attend special teachings by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Students also have the opportunity to give something back to the community. They are
encouraged to teach English to monks, nuns and refugees from Tibet, and volunteer with
service and welfare projects.

Programme Details
established in exile in 1959, after the Chinese occupation of Tibet. In March 1969, the international
relations section of Chisee Khang was placed under the Bureau of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in
New Delhi. With the overwhelming demand for information on Tibet by the international community
as well as Tibetans, in understanding political, human rights and environmental consciousness, the
Department had started publishing the ‘Tibetan Bulletin’. Thus, in 1971, the information section was
expanded with the inclusion of Sheja Publication, and renamed ‘Information and Publicity Office’. On
4 April 1988, the Office was further expanded and the international relations section of the Bureau in
Delhi was made a part of it again. It was thus that the Office came to be renamed the Department of

About the Organisation:
In February 1960, at Bodhgaya (where Lord Buddha achieved enlightenment), His Holiness the Dalai
Lama outlined a detailed programme designed to introduce the exiles to the practice of democratic
self-rule to the large group of Tibetans gathered there. He advised them to set up an elected body
with three exile representatives for each of the three cholkas and one each for the four Buddhist
religious traditions.
The Assembly of Tibetan People's Deputies' building was completed in the early 1980s during the
seventh ATPD. It is a modest structure at the centre of a horseshoe-shaped cluster of buildings
housing the various departments of the Secretariat of the Government-in-Exile.
