The exiled Tibetan spiritual leader was introduced on the main stage by Patti Smith after earlier delivering a speech in the Peace Garden.
Patti Smith presented the Dalai Lama with a cake in advance of his 80th birthday on July 6 and led a rendition of Happy Birthday.
The Dalai Lama said he was an admirer of Patti Smith and her band.
“I very much appreciate those singers and musicians – most of you with white hair,” he said.
“That voice and physical action looks very beautiful.
“That gives me encouragement. Myself, now 80 years old, I should be more like you.”
