Dalai Lama to Visit US for Knee Treatment, Pausing Public Engagements

The 88-year-old spiritual leader will travel to the United States this month for medical care, with no public appearances scheduled until his return.

The Dalai Lama's office confirmed his trip to the US for knee treatment, starting this June.
He will not hold any public engagements from June 20 until his return to Dharamshala.
The Dalai Lama was advised against travel last October due to flu but has since recovered.
The visit follows his January trip to Bodhgaya, a significant Buddhist site in India.
The Dalai Lama fled to India in 1959 and has long advocated for Tibetan cultural autonomy.
