New Delhi - The Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled spiritual leader, was Monday discharged from a hospital in India's western city of Mumbai, four days after he was admitted with "abdominal discomfort."

The 73-year-old Nobel peace laureate smiled and waved at crowds of his followers and onlookers as he left the Lilavati Hospital, his aides said.

"His Holiness left the hospital on Monday morning and is now resting at a hotel," senior aide Chimme R Chhoekyapa said by telephone from Mumbai.

"The Dalai Lama is in good health. Doctors said he has no physical problems but have advised him rest," he said.

The Tibetan leader's office has cancelled all his engagements so that he could have a few more days of rest in Mumbai, Chhoekyapa added.

The Dalai Lama was admitted to the hospital on Thursday evening after complaining of fatigue. His office cancelled planned trips to Mexico and the Dominican Republic.

The Dalai Lama had recently returned to India from an 11-day visit to France. Doctors told local news outlets that he had responded to the treatment "very well" and there was no cause for concern.

The Tibetan leader has lived in India since fleeing his homeland in 1959. His government-in-exile, which is not recognized by any country, is based in the northern India hill town of Dharamsala. (dpa)
