NEW DELHI, India (CNN) -- Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama has been cleared to resume international travel after a medical checkup showed he has recovered from a recent abdominal ailment, his spokesman said.
The Dalai Lama normally spends several months a year traveling the world to teach Buddhism.
"He is fine. He'll be starting his international travels at the end of this month," spokesman Tenzin Taklha told CNN in New Delhi.
The Dalai Lama underwent the medical examination in the Indian capital of New Delhi as a follow-up to his hospitalization in August in Mumbai for abdominal discomfort.
Doctors have advised him to rest before resuming his travel schedule, his spokesman said.
The 73-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader will return Thursday to the north Indian hill town of Dharamsala, where he lives in exile, the spokesman said.
