The 11th Panchen Lama Bainqen Erdini Qoigyijabu, a senior living Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism, delivered his first-public speech outside the Chinese mainland on Thursday, to promote Dharma - Buddha's teachings - in Hong Kong.
He made the keynote speech in Mandarin at the third World Buddhist Forum, which opened on the same day.
The Panchen Lama voiced his concern about a contemporary trend to put "materialistic technology" ahead of the "science of the mind".
