Glastonbury is the home of spiritual enlightenment for thousands festival goers who make their pilgrimage to Worthy Farm each June, but 2015s event could be a particularly enlightening experience if rumours of the Dalai Lamas appearance turn out to be true.

On his official website dalailama.com Tenzin Gyatso, the 79-year-old head monk of Tibetan Buddhism, seemingly self-announced his slot at this years festival, detailing his attendance at the event on Sunday 28 June.

His Holiness will give a talk at the Glastonbury Festival in the morning, a post on the sites schedule section read.

There is now confusion though, over whether the spiritual leader will be appearing. Festival officials refused to comment on Monday on the Dalai Lamas possible appearance and the original listing on the spiritual leaders website was removed once news began to circulate.

At present, there still remains a Glastonbury shaped gap in his diary: the Nobel peace prize winner is scheduled to give a talk on The Wisdom of Giving and Receiving in Perth, western Australia on 14 June and a public talk on Buddhism in the 21st Century in Middlesex on 29 June. Perhaps a Pyramid stage gig is still possible.

With Glastonbury synonymous with an ethos of peace and love, news of his potential arrival on Worthy Farm is a surprising yet well suited choice: pop culture has long celebrated his spiritual and environmental causes, with the likes of the Red Hot Chili Peppers performing for him in 2013, and the Beastie Boys late Adam Yauch regularly working alongside the leader to raise awareness on the plight of the Tibetan people.

While it would be his debut at Glastonbury, in 2013, the Dalai Lamas Tibetan monks The Gyuto Monks of Tibet, who are exiled with the 14th Dalai Lama in north India performed their chants in the famous Green Fields.

The full Glastonbury lineup is not expected to be revealed until April, with this years only confirmed name remaining soul singer, Lionel Richie, who makes his debut on the Pyramid stage on the Sunday. Tickets for 2015s Glastonbury, which runs from 24th to 28th June, are sold out.
