The exiled Tibetan community living in Dharamshala are elated as spiritual leader Dalai Lama earns his first Grammy for the spoken-word album "Meditations: The Reflections of His Holiness the Dalai Lama" on Monday.

In response to the Dalai Lama's achievement, Deputy speaker of Tibetan parliament in-exile Dolma Tsering told ANI, "It's historic moment and it's a matter of great joy, not only for Tibetans but for the whole humanity. So I also want to express my congratulations to his holiness for winning this Grammy award"

"This is certainly a new platform that he has been able to reach to share his message of universal brotherhood and compassion," added Tsering.

The album was nominated in the category of Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording, for the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, held on Monday (Local Time). The event took place at Los Angeles.

The Dalai Lama collaborated with sarod maestro Amjad Ali Khan and his sons Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash on this album, which is a combination of spoken words and music to celebrate the values of peace, compassion and hope.

In response to the award the Dalai Lama's office posted a message from the Spiritual leader saying, "I receive this recognition with gratitude and humility. I don't see it as something personal, but as a recognition of our shared universal responsibility. I truly believe that peace, compassion, care for our environment, and an understanding of the oneness of humanity are essential for the collective well-being of all eight billion human beings. I'm grateful that this Grammy recognition can help spread these messages more widely."
