He met Dalai in Dharamshala on Monday.

While speaking to reporters Martin Luther King III was quoted as saying by ANI, “To be in his presence, to feel his energy, to hear his thoughts of what our world must continue to do in terms of understanding how we create a better world for all of God’s children…It was amazing to see his interaction…It was amazing to be with him again.”
