(CNN) — The Dalai Lama was hospitalized Wednesday in western India. Arriving accompanied by a police escort at Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital, the 73-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader emerged from his car wearing his trademark red garb, waved to onlookers, and walked without assistance into the entrance. On Wednesday, a posting on his Web site said the Dalai Lama had been “experiencing some discomfort in the past couple of days” that his physicians attributed to exhaustion and, as a result, would cancel his engagements for the next three weeks. It said he would instead complete medical tests that were begun earlier this month. |
