The Dalai Lama has returned to his headquarters in the north Indian hill town of Dharmsala after a brief stay in a hospital in the capital for treatment of a chest infection.
Hundreds of exiled Tibetans lined the streets of Dharamsala carrying ceremonial scarves and incense sticks to welcome the Dalai Lama on Friday.
The 83-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader told reporters that he had fully recovered, but that the illness had been "a little bit serious".

He did not give any details.
The Dalai Lama usually spends several months a year traveling the world to teach Buddhism and highlight Tibetans' struggle for greater freedom in China.

But he has cut down on his travels in the past year to take care of his health.
