Why The Founding Fathers, Gandhi and the Dalai Lama Are All AGAINST Gun Control Preface: I was raised to be against guns. My parents hated guns, and believed that they only lead to crime and to accidental shootings. Raised in a blue state, I had the stereotype that militias were made of crazies … and so the “right to bear arms” as part of a “well-regulated militia” seemed like a nutty anachronism. And [...] Unlikely ‘swearing’ came at the very end of a speech at Brown University on World Peace It is a phrase you would not associate with one of the holiest men alive. Indeed, it must have caused the stenographer a little consternation when the Dalai Lama apparently finished his speech with a very frank ‘f*** it’ to an audience of students at Brown University in Rhode Island. Still, the stenographer had to transcribe what [...] “The 2045 initiative has received the blessing and support from the Dalai Lama, as it prepares to announce the second Global Future 2045 Congress, being held in New York, June, 2013. Dmitry Itskov, founder of 2045, met His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, in his residence in Dharamsala, a small mountain town in northern India. They discussed the three major steps of 2045 Avatar Project.

Former monk Tenzin Khedup, 24, and Ngawang Norphel, 22, held out Tibetan flags and shouted pro-independence songs as the flames [...] In an exclusive interview with this week’s Sunday Telegraph, the 76-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner, revealed he had been passed reports from inside Tibet warning that Chinese agents had trained Tibetan women for a mission to poison him while posing as devotees seeking his blessings. The Tibetan Buddhist leader said he lives within a high security cordon in his temple palace grounds in Dharamsala, in the Himalayan foothills, on the advice of [...] Oct 8 (Reuters) – China is built on lies and its officials are hypocrites, the Dalai Lama said on Saturday, speaking via videophone after visa problems prevented him from joining Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s birthday celebrations in South Africa. “Some Chinese officials describe me as a demon,” the Tibetan spiritual leader said to loud applause as he put his index fingers either side of his head to mimic devil’s [...] (CNN) — China spoke out strongly Sunday against a meeting between U.S. President Barack Obama and the Dalai Lama, saying it “hurt the feelings of the Chinese people and harmed Sino-U.S. relations.” “This action seriously interfered with China’s internal affairs,” said Ma Zhaoxu, a spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, in a statement, adding that officials have lodged formal complaints with their U.S. counterparts in [...] (Reuters) – China’s Foreign Ministry warned U.S. officials on Thursday not to meet with visiting exiled spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, saying it hoped Washington “appropriately dealt” with Tibet-related issues. China reviles the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Dalai Lama, saying he supports the use of violence to establish an independent Tibet. He strongly denies either accusation, insisting he seeks only true autonomy for the remote region. The [...] It may be just as well that the Dalai Lama has given up his political role after the revered Tibetan spiritual leader Tuesday referred to Australia’s female prime minister as a man. Questioned on whether he was disappointed that Julia Gillard would not be meeting him during his visit, the globe-trotting icon replied: “No.” “If your prime minister has some kind of spiritual interest then of course my [...] Usually what we hear from the Dalai Lama is an insistant yet soothing voice for compassion and peace. So Tsering Namgyal, a journalist based in Minneapolis, was jolted by the Dalai Lama’s talk to 150 Chinese students this month at University of Minnesota. Writing at Religion Dispatches, he says: Midway through the conversation, His Holiness, much to their surprise, told them “as far as socio-political beliefs are [...] by Havakasha Those who think there is no need to worry about the environment, and who pass off global warming and climate change as a liberal fantasy are going to be sorry they didnt Tibetan Glaciers Melting, Dalai Lama Claims 04/ 2/11 06:54 AM ET NEW DELHI — The Dalai Lama said Saturday that India should be seriously concerned about the melting of glaciers in [...] |
