The Last Dalai Lama?

rendition of ‘‘Happy Birthday.’’ Onstage, Tenzin Gyatso, the

14th Dalai Lama, blew out the solitary candle on a large

[5] birthday cake while clasping the hand of Patti Smith, who

stood beside him. The world’s most famous monk then poked

a thick finger at Smith’s silvery mane. ‘‘Musicians,’’ he said,

‘‘white hair.’’ But ‘‘the voice and physical action,’’ he added

in his booming baritone, ‘‘forceful.’’ As Smith giggled, he

[10] went on: ‘‘So, that gives me encouragement. Myself, now 80

years old, but I should be like you — more active!’’
