达兰萨拉（亚洲新闻）—藏传佛教领袖达赖喇嘛致函仁爱会总会长普雷马修女表示高度赞赏圣女、为德勒撒修女列圣品感到高兴。强调自己是德勒撒修女的“崇拜者”。一九八八年，他曾在牛津见到过圣女，立即意识到她是“榜样”，“揭示了真正的通过爱德事业履行爱”。以下为贺电全文：
I rejoice at this recognition as an admirer of her dedicated service to humanity, particularly the way she cared for the poorest of the poor. I join you in celebrating her extraordinary life.
Meeting Mother Teresa it was clear she was an exemplary person. I was reminded of this when I made a special visit to the Missionaries of Charity in Kolkata last year to pay tribute to her and the Sisters’ work. She revealed the true practice of love in her charitable activities. Although she is no longer physically with us, her spirit lives on in the work you all do.
In conclusion I take the opportunity also to express my abiding respect for the humanitarian service of the Missionaries of Charity, praying that it may continue as long as there are poor among us who need help.
