The Dalai Lama has issued an apology after a video showing him asking a child to “suck” his tongue sparked outrage online.
The 87-year-old Buddhist priest says he “regrets the incident” and wishes to apologize to “the boy and his family, as well as his many friends across the world, for the hurt his words may have caused,” according to a statement published by his office on Monday.
“His Holiness often teases people he meets in an innocent and playful way, even in public and before cameras,” the statement adds.
Dalai Lama is a title given by the Tibetan people to the foremost spiritual leader of the Gelug or “Yellow Hat” school of Tibetan Buddhism, the newest and most dominant of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
