The problem of the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation in La$_2$CuO$_4$ is revisited in connection with the recent measurements of the NQR relaxation rate for temperatures up to $ 900\mbox{K} $ [T.\ Imai {\em et al.}, Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett., in press]. We use an approach based on the exact diagonalization for the Heisenberg model to calculate the short wavelength contribution to the relaxation rate in the high temperature region, $ T \! \agt \! J/2 $. It is shown that the spin diffusion accounts for approximately 10\% of the total relaxation rate at $900 \mbox{K} $ and would become dominant for $T\! >\! J$. The calculated $1/T_1$ is in good agreement with the experiment both in terms of the absolute value and temperature dependence.
