In one my earlier editorials I had written about our Palampur visit, which was unforgettable for many reasons. The most memorable and rewarding event was our visit to Dharamsala-the place where the present Dalai Lama established his centre to protect the interest of the Tibetan people after he came into exile in 1959. It was the kindness and courtesy of Dr. P.S. Ahuja, Director of IHBT (Institute of Himalayan Bioresources Technology) that this sight-seeing trip to Dharamsala and McLeod Gunje was arranged. Instead of merely making it a tourist day-out, we decided to utilize this trip to visit the monastery of the Dalai Lama, to meet him and to request him to contribute to our journal Science and Culture.
