The Dalai Lama lives in Dharamsala, India.

Think about the Dalai Lama.

Both monks were held in Drapchi prison.

At the age of four, he was installed as the 14th Dalai Lama.

Four monks who reportedly disappeared in 1996 were allegedly accused of having produced pro independence posters and leaflets containing prayers for the health and safety of the child reported as disappeared, recognized by the Dalai Lama on 14 May 1995 as the reincarnation of the late Panchen Lama.

One of the first letters was from the Dalai Lama.

India s Dalai Dilemma

In the great teaching of his Holiness the Dalai Lama that he always teaches everywhere, he says that that is the common religion of humanity kindness.

A line that the Dalai Lama once said, he said, Love and compassion are necessities.

The Dalai Lama often states that compassion is his best friend.

And of course, we went and saw him and it was amazing.

And it brings you into the presence of what's been called God, Nirvana, Rama, Tao.

China would also have drawn comfort from the fact that, within the murky world of intra Tibetan politics, its anointed Karmapa, oddly, had the Dalai Lama s backing. Historically, the Dalai Lamas and Karmapa Lamas vied with each other for influence until the Dalai Lama s Gelug school gained ascendancy over the Kagyu order.

Earlier, in 1995, China installed its own Panchen Lama after its security services abducted the Tibetans six year old appointee, who has simply disappeared, along with his family.

The Dalai Lama was once in Portugal, and there was a lot of construction going on everywhere.

A letter came through from the Dalai Lama saying, This is an amazing thing. Come and see me.

The Dalai Lama, the Panchen Lama, and the Karmapa Lama are the three highest figures in Tibetan Buddhism, representing parallel institutions that have intermittently been at odds with each other throughout their history. And China, seeking to tighten its grip on Tibet, has worked to control the traditional process of finding the reincarnation of any senior lama that passes away.

I think the Dalai Lama should have heard that. I wish he'd been there to hear that.

Think about the enormous moral authority of the Dalai Lama and it comes from his moral humility.

Twelve in their ecclesiastical or cultural or tribal attire affirming one message.

(e) Sangye Tenphel, a monk, who allegedly died in custody on 6 May 1996 as a result of beatings by prison guards, and Kelsang Thutop, also a monk, who reportedly died in prison on 5 July 1996 because of insufficient medical treatment.

And it just so happened, on the fifth week, there was a public teaching by the Dalai Lama.

And this is well, at the time I did this 10 years ago that was 36 years after the Dalai Lama had left.

Now, China is waiting for the current Dalai Lama who is over 75 and has had bouts of ill health in recent years to pass away, so that it can anoint his successor, too. But the Dalai Lama, the charismatic face of the Tibetan movement, has made it clear that his successor will come from the free world, thereby excluding Chinese ruled Tibet.

107. During the period under review, the Government provided information on three cases which concern the disappearance of the boy, Gedhun Nyima, who was reportedly recognized as the reincarnation of the tenth Panchen Lama by the Dalai Lama in 1995, and his parents.

Because if compassion was a chore, nobody's going to do it, except maybe the Dalai Lama or something.

The trumpet.

His whole monastery was thrown into prison at the time of the uprising, when the Dalai Lama had to leave Tibet.

And I'd snuck in because it's totally illegal to have a picture of the Dalai Lama in Tibet it's the quickest way you can get arrested.

Indians are acutely conscious that, on this subject, the Chinese are easily offended. While India facilitated the highly publicized visit by Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the US House of Representatives, to the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala last month, it almost simultaneously canceled a scheduled meeting between him and Indian Vice President Mohammed Hamid Ansari.

I saw it when the Dalai Lama came to the Riverside Church while I was a pastor, and he invited representatives of faith traditions from all around the world.

So I snuck in a bunch of little wallet sized pictures of the Dalai Lama, and I would hand them out.

The children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, we perish! We are undone! We are all undone!

The children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, Behold, we perish! We are undone! We are all undone!

And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.

And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.

CL Now I'm not suggesting that the cat is hearing that trumpet the way we're hearing it.

So, for instance the Dalai Lama gets up every morning meditating on compassion, and he thinks that helping other human beings is an integral component of human happiness.

Well well well.

Trumpet.

(horn)

(bugle)

But she jumps to action when called to duty!

Tell that horn to go away.

And with the blessing of Trulshik Rinpoche, we began a pilgrimage to a curious destination, accompanied by a great doctor.
