Tibetonline.tv will provide most of its airtime to speeches and philosophic lectures of the Buddhist spiritual leader both in India and abroad, Tibetan Culture and Information Center reports.

The opening of Tibetonline.tv was initiated by the Tibetan Government which already had experience of Internet broadcasting of various events—from solemn public prayers about the longevity of His Holiness Dalai Lama to everyday sessions of the Assembly of Tibetan Deputies.

One will be able to find a vast collection of feature and documentary films about Tibet and the Dalai Lama in the Tibetonline.tv archive. There are also videos of his lectures at various conferences and forums.

Tibetonline.tv viewers will be able to watch a documentary about the life of the Buddhist religious leader "Compassion in Expulsion," the Dalai Lama's speech at the Nobel Award ceremony, a big public prayer in Sakyamuni's enlightenment place Bodh Gaya—and a lot more.
