English: Dharamshala or Dharamsala (Hindi: धर्मशाला, pronounced [dʱərəmˈʃaːlaː] or [dʱərmˈʃaːlaː]; Tibetan: དྷ་རམ་ས་ལ་) is a city in northern India. Dharamshala means "Rest House for pilgrims". It is the seat of the district headquarters of the Kangra district in the state of Himachal Pradesh located in the upper reaches of the en:Kangra Valley. The town is divided into two three parts — Upper Dharamsala called McLeod Ganj, the middle Kotwali Bazar and the lower Kaccheri area. McLeod Ganj is known as the residence of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. Dharamsala houses the headquarters of the Tibetan Government in exile about two kilometers below the town of McLeod Ganj. Dharamsala is the closest one can get to Tibet while still in India. Once a British hill station, Dharamsala received an influx of Tibetan refugees after the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1959. Today, Dharamsala is a popular destination for Indian and foreign tourists, particularly those seeking spiritual salvation.

Durvasa Rishi had come here from Maharashtra to cool his right side. Pointing to a slab of stone, she [shri Mataji] said Durvasa Rishi had done tapasya on this shila (stone slab) and that is why the city was called Dharam shila ( धर्म शिला ), but the British pronounced it as Dharamshala!
From the book : "The Tenth Incarnation", by Yogi Mahajan, Paperback, in Volume I, Chapter 14, page 89

  • Dharam shila ( धर्म शिला ) is a name meaning "Dharma Rock", "rock of righteousness" or "pillar of virtue," and suggests strength and a strong moral compass. The names meaning itself is powerful: a steadfast rock representing righteous conduct.
