The two Karmapas have already worked together to reunite the Kagyupas. They know that without unity and harmony, the lineage will not grow and it may even degenerate. Recently, the two Karmapas also jointly written a long life prayer for Sharmapa, this shows the two Karmapas have put down their differences and want to work together to resolve the conflict. Dorje Shugden ban only brings damages and creates suffering to the Tibetans, there is no benefits. When will the CTA lift the ban? When will they really do something beneficial to the Tibetans?

CTA and Dalai Lama are playing politic power control here. Why would the politician and Dalai Lama intrude into other lineage’s recognition of their successor? What is it got to do with CTA on spiritual matters? and for Dalai Lama, why get involved in other lineages tradition? When has Karmapa recognition involved the Dalai Lama?

All these look bad and that’s why many Tibetans lose faith in the Tibetan leadership. What they see is separation. Who wants to leave with the leader that always creates suffering for their people?

Tibetan leadership should stop all these and deal with the real matter which is to request a dialogue with China and get Dalai Lama and Tibetans back to Tibet. Do what you supposed to do and stop what that hurt the Tibetan. You have lost your country and now you want to lose your people?

Unlike 5 years ago, Tibetan leader Lobsang Sangay is not invited to Prime Minister Modi’s swearing-in ceremony this time. It is clear that PM Modi of India snubs the Tibetan leadership once again in favour of deeper ties with China. The Tibetan leadership finds itself increasingly isolated as nobody wants to offend China by lending any support to the ungrateful Tibetans.

PM Modi snubs Tibetan leadership for swearing-in ceremony

DHARAMSHALA, May 30: The Indian Prime Minister who is fresh off of a massive win in the Indian Lok Sabha elections has done a U-turn by not inviting exile Tibetan government’s President to the swearing in ceremony due to be held later today, in a bid to not anger Beijing.
The President of the exile Tibetan government, known officially as the Central Tibetan Administration, Dr. Lobsang Sangay’s absence today at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi marks a stark contrast to 2014 when the elected Tibetan leader was seated in the former rows at the ceremony when PM Modi was sworn into office the first time around.
The invitation to Dr. Sangay in May 2014 drew strong objection from the Chinese government who lodged an official protest censuring New Delhi’s disregard for the so-called ‘One-China policy’. Many said at the time that the invite was posturing at most, of Modi’s intent to India’s neighbor and biggest rivals both in Asia and global arenas.
The New Delhi-Beijing relations post the Doklam stand off and Wuhan summit has meant that India has given a cold shoulder to the exile Tibetan set up, thereby taking a step back in using the much-touted ‘Tibet card’. The shift in policy has markedly been seen on the ground with New Delhi issuing an advisory to senior leaders to avoid His Holiness the Dalai Lama or pushing the CTA to shift the “thank you India” ceremony from New Delhi to Dharamshala last year.
The head of the Tibetan polity who extended pleasantries to PM Modi on his win, however may have anticipated the snub. Days after Modi’s historic election win, Sangay flew to the United States and is scheduled to return on June 5 to India next week.

1st Time Dalai Lama Finally Admits His Illness Was Serious

In the past it is customary to cover up the Dalai Lama’s illnesses. It could be to not worry his flock. It could also be to not show the world he is just another vulnerable human being. Or it could be he does not want to disappoint people to show he is not a god? Whatever the reasons, the Dalai Lama and regime are well known for covering up his serious illnesses. In the past few years he had cancer of the prostate and that was covered up till the press dug it up. Now with this new video just out April 2019, Dalai Lama admits he was recently very ill. It was serious.

Unfortunately the Tibetan cause will die with the Dalai Lama when he passes. He did nothing to groom up a new leader as he is a dictator. A ruler for life. He has been in power for over 60 years. He will never groom up another person to replace him because he is touted as a god.

The recognition of the 17th Karmapa is supposed to be very serious, holy and transparent. Why the rush especially when there’s disagreement raised by one of the key people?

June 7, 1992: Shamarpa challenged Tai Situ Rinpoche’s claim of having discovered a secret prediction letter indicating Ogyen Trinley to be the rightful 17th Karmapa.

June 29, 1992: the Shamarpa personally informed the Dalai Lama of his intention to find and recognize the genuine reincarnation of the 16th Karmapa

July 23, 1992: instead of respecting the Shamarpa’s stance, the CTA formally issued a special official notification confirming Ogyen Trinley to be the rightful 17th Gyalwa Karmapa.

I think this is the only valid explanation. CTA doesn’t want their people to question them on their incapability to fight for Tibetan cause, the best way is to make Tibetans stupid and split them up. Then even some of the Tibetans have questions over certain issue, they would not cause any big impact.

All these are purely political play among the power seeker. Knowing that people will flop over and taking side, hence this is being set up to control people’s mind and to split Tibetan apart. Any other reason if having two Karmapas? They are being set a 2 different political parties although the two Karmapa themselves are not intended to.

When people stand together and unite, they are strong. When people are split and take side, they are weak. When you are weak, outsider can attack you easily and take over. That’s what happening to Dorje Shugden practitioners. When a group of people have same faith, talk with the same mind and unite, very powerful. But Tibetan never unite. They have been played off by their leaders for their own benefits. Hence fail to return to their home land.

What did I just read? Instead of uniting Tibetan, spreading Tibetan Buddhism, turning the Dharma wheel, spreading Dharma to every corner to the world, this is what they like to do? Interrupting other lineage’s successor, and showing over power? Come on CTA, mind your own business first, you are already full of s**t, yet you want to show your power over in spirituality? Come on, I think His Holiness should concentrate in spiritual practice and not get involved so much in politics? Him and his government just made the whole religion look more and more complicated. This is not Tibetan want to see. This is not Buddhists want to see. When is this going to end?

It’s always harmful to mix spiritual with politic. The Dalai Lama should just stay on with spiritual and within his own school. Why should he get involve in other’s lineage? It’s apply the same concept here where would the Dalai Lama be ok when the Karmapa intervene in Gelupa matter? If not, why interfere others?

Obviously all these action by CTA and Dalai Lama are purely with political agenda. The funny thing here is that Tibet has lost their country and now living in exile on other’s people land which had a tenure for another 40yrs plus India is befriending China what would be the faith for the Tibetan in India?

And the most important key question that the Tibetan and also all the people around the world that concern on world peace, religious freedom, human rights and humanity is ‘why the Tibetan leadership discriminate/separate/being violent/support self-immolation’ to their own Tibetan? Why further create all this unnecessary problem for their people which by right the Tibetan leadership should unite all Tibetan and work out on how bring their people back to their homeland.

The Tibetan in India is really in a negative state and it’s really shameful for the Tibetan leadership who divert their priority from protecting their people, uniting their people, improve the welfare of their people in to creating more trouble for their people.

Karmapa issue has becoming more know in the public eye these day. No matter what CTA and His Holiness should not interfering Kamar Kagyu intener problem and cause the Kagyu sect divided. CTA has using politic power to control all the religious affair but not bring unity for religion affair. The result of Karmapa issue uncontrol and growing bigger become one of example failure of Tibetan government in exile.
