''This is a great honour not only for me but for the Buddhism and surely it will help the others to know Buddhism and the sacred chants'' said Mr Tashi refusing to acknowledge that he had done something extraordinary.

''It is our prayer to the God and world I liked it and I am very happy for that.'' Lama Tashi is the Principal Chant Master of the Dalai Lama's Drepung Loseling Monastery in India -- one of the largest Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in the world with over 3,000 monks. He has travelled extensively throughout the world, teaching, performing and recording with monks from his Monastery.
