		<description>The Tibetans have risked so much to escape Tibet and arrived in India hoping they will have a better future here. The CTA is supposed to take care of them but they allow fights among the Tibetans. It is sad to see Tibetans are being abused and attacked by their own people.</description>

		<description>Dear Dalai Lama,

Since you started the cruel ban against the 350 year Dorje Shugden practice, how has it benefit your Tibetan society and Buddhism in the world? &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Things have become worse and most educated Tibetans can see this.&lt;/font&gt; They don&#039;t speak out not because they don&#039;t see your ban as wrong, but you instill fear in them and not respect. It is like fear of a dictator. I am sorry to say so. Everyone is divided. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There is no harmony.&lt;/font&gt; Before your ban there was more harmony and unity.

By enacting the ban, you split the monasteries, split so many families, split regions in Tibet apart, split your disciples from you, split your own gurus from you, split Tibetan Buddhism apart. You have created so much disharmony.

It is not democratic what you have done to ban a religion within your community. You always talk of tolerance and acceptance and democracy and yet you do not accept and tolerate something different from your beliefs. When people practice Dorje Shugden you ostracize them, ban them from seeing you, ban them from using Tibetan facilities. You know you have done that. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;There are videos that capture your speech and prove this point.&lt;/font&gt; You even had people expelled from monasteries just because they practice Dorje Shugden. Some of the monks you expelled have been in the monastery for over 40 years. Many older monks shed tears because of this.

Many young educated Tibetans lost confidence in you as they saw the damage the Dorje Shugden ban created and they lose hope. Many have become free thinkers. They reject what you have done. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many people in the west left Buddhism because of the confusion you created with this ban against Dorje Shugden which is immoral.&lt;/font&gt;

You could of had millions of people who practice Dorje Shugden to support, love and follow you, but you scared them away. They are hurt and very disappointed. They loved you and respected you deeply before the ban. It has been 60 years and you have failed to get Tibet back. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;Your biggest failure is not getting Tibet back after 57 years in exile.&lt;/font&gt; Now you are begging China to allow you to return to Tibet to the disappointment of thousands of people who fought for a free Tibet believing in you. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;So many self-immolated for a free Tibet and now you want Tibet to be a part of China with no referendum from Tibetans.&lt;/font&gt; Just like a dictator, you decide on your own.  It was your government and you that lost Tibet in the first place. Your policies and style of doing things do not benefit Tibet and Buddhism. You have been the sole ruler of Tibet your whole life and you still have not gotten our country of Tibet back for us. Our families and us are separated. Yet you create more pain by creating a ban to further divide people. Please have compassion.

No other Buddhist leader has banned or condemned any religion except for you. It looks very bad. You are a Nobel laureate and this is not fitting of a laureate. You should unite people and not separate them by religious differences.

&lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;You said Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi did not do right to the Rohingya people in Myanmar due to religious differences, but you are doing the same thing to the Shugden Buddhists within your own society.&lt;/font&gt; There is a parallel in this. You separate the Shugden Buddhists from the others in Tibetan society.

You have lost so many people who would have loved and supported you. You have lost so much support around the world. The Shugden Buddhists who love you number in the millions. When you are fast losing support from governments and private people, it will not do you well to lose more.

After you are passed away in the future, the rift you created between the Dorje Shugden and non-Dorje Shugden people will remain for a while and that will be your legacy. Disharmony. You will be remembered for this. Not as a hero but a disharmony creator.

Dorje Shugden will spread and further grow, but you will be no more as you are a human. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;No one wishes you bad and in fact we hope you have a long and healthy life, but we have lost so much hope and have so much despair because of you.&lt;/font&gt; All the hundreds of Dorje Shugden lamas, tulkus and geshes are maturing and there are hundreds of Dorje Shugden monasteries in Tibet who will not give up Dorje Shugden. You have made a mistake. These hundreds of teachers and teachers to be will spread Dorje Shugden further in the future.

The gurus that gave us Dorje Shugden as a spiritual practice and you have called these holy gurus wrong and they are mistaken in giving us Dorje Shugden. &lt;font color=#cc4125 class=&quot;bbcode-color&quot;&gt;How can you insult our gurus whom we respect so much? If they can be wrong, then you can be wrong.&lt;/font&gt; Then all gurus can be wrong. So no one needs to listen to any guru? You have created this trend. It is not healthy. Your own gurus practiced Dorje Shugden their whole lives. Your own gurus were exemplary and highly learned.

Dalai Lama you have created so much pain with this ban against so many people due to religion. You are ageing fast. Are you going to do anything about it or stay stubborn, hard and un-moving. You show a smile and preach peace and harmony wherever you go. But will you do the same to your own people? Please rectify the wrong you have done. Please before it is too late. You can create harmony again or you can pass away in the future with this legacy of peace. May you live long and think carefully and admit what was a mistake in having this unethical ban against Dorje Shugden religion.

		<description>&lt;b&gt;What will the all the people around the world and in Tibet do now? Dalai Lama says he is happy that Tibet is a part of China and should remain a part of China. So many Tibetans self-immolated for Tibet to be independent and now Dalai Lama did a 360 degree turn and says he wants to go back to Tibet and China and Tibet should be a part of China. So unbelievable. So many are angry and disappointed.
&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;q&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;color:red&quot;&gt;Tibetans ready to be part of China: Dalai Lama&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
Organised by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), the event was a part of &quot;Thank You India - 2018&quot; held by the Tibetan community across India to mark 60 years of its exile in the country.
Indo-Asian News Service
Bengaluru
Tibetans are ready to be a part of China if guaranteed full rights to preserve their culture, the Dalai Lama said on Friday.
&quot;Tibetans are not asking for independence. We are okay with remaining with the People&#039;s Republic of China, provided we have full rights to preserve our culture,&quot; the 83-year-old spiritual leader said at &quot;Thank You Karnataka&quot; event here in the city.
Organised by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), the event was a part of &quot;Thank You India - 2018&quot; held by the Tibetan community across India to mark 60 years of its exile in the country.
&quot;Several of Chinese citizens practicing Buddhism are keen on Tibetan Buddhism as it is considered scientific,&quot; the Nobel laureate said.
Born in Taktser hamlet in northeastern Tibet, the Dalai Lama was recognized at the age of two as the reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso. He fled to India from Tibet after a failed uprising against the Chinese rule in 1959.
China annexed Tibet in 1950, forcing thousands of Tibetans, including monks, to flee the mountain country and settle in India as refugees.
Since then, India has been home to over 100,000 Tibetans majorly settled in Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh among other states.

		<description>It is good that the Tibetans are speaking up for themselves. Every single citizen has their own rights to voice out the their opinions. They have to fight for their own right and what they deserve. I feel that the younger generation are more brave in voicing out their opinions while the older generation are not so brave to voice out their opinions and would rather follow what was instructed to them.</description>

		<description>As the younger generation learn to navigate modern network of communications and dissemination of information, the learn more of what the CTA has been doing that is grossly unjust and not the the benefits of the Tibetans in exile and the cause of the Tibetans.

Before, CTA could blind the older generations due to the ignorance of this generation of Tibetans in exile. That is why knowledge is very important. 

I wonder, though whether the CTA will come up with something to muzzle these youths? I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if they do as that&#039;s what dictators do.</description>

		<description>It is obvious that with now the border less world of information whatever the CTA has been hiding the truths, lying to its people and kept it a secret about the reality of Dorje Shudgen has now surfaced.
One can understand the frustration of the of the Tibetan youths after being kept hibernated for so many years and with this emerging trend of &quot; I do not trust you anymore&quot; they are moving and inching closer in achieving their aim of decimating the badly run CTA government.
For too many years many has kept quiet and has witness this shameful act of  turning a  supposedly democratically run government into a house of shame and shambles. 
Bad apples has to be taken out otherwise it would turned the good ones rotten and I hope now that the Tibetan youths are speaking up more and act soon to regain respect as a good Buddhist would do in propagating truth.</description>

		<description>It is heartening to see Tibetans young and old, wanting to know whats going on with their community and people. It shows the maturity of the people and nation as whole in their viewpoints and understanding of the challenges they are facing as an exile community. 

Ultimately many of the issues that sprouted out from the Tibetan in exile community, the solution perhaps could come from the Tibetans itself. Well we can only hope, that more Tibetans will rise up and bring harmony to their people and community once more.</description>

		<description>What struck me most was the silence of the leadership on the self-immolations of monks. To me, that shakes the very core of what Buddhism is - respect life, any life.
What floored me was that  the ex-Prime Minister Samdhong Rinpoche was quoted as saying, “We should support all those that have sacrificed their life for the Tibetan cause.” How can they expect others to lay their lives on the line whilst they conveniently ignore their own incompetence to alleviate a desperate situation and achieve their goals to free Tibet.

And, so many young Tibetans in exile voicing their opinions, loudly at that. They are maturing politically. They are becoming aware and strong. May they continue to grow for their future. They have to show the lies, the division of their own people by their own government.  That is their human rights.  

May they find their back to their heritage of Vajrayana and the teachings of the Buddha for wisdom and compassion.</description>

<p>May they find their back to their heritage of Vajrayana and the teachings of the Buddha for wisdom and compassion.</p>

		<description>I believe the dissatisfaction of Tibetans showcased here is nothing but just the tip of an iceberg, buried under the fear of Dalai Lama and being ostracized by CTA. It is not difficult to imagine why the condemn towards CTA; CTA is a government that direct resources towards persecuting people’s religion, instead of directing resources towards the resolution of the Tibetan issue. Majority of Tibetan in exile community live in poor conditions, youth has to search for jobs in bigger cities in India with limited qualification. 

It is very crucial for the world to sniff out the sectarianism within the Tibetan leadership, where those in power will control the Tibetans and use their loyalty to the Dalai Lama against them, just so they can stay in power. This is a pure evil political play in the expense of Tibetans as well as billions of dollars of donations from Dalai Lama supporter worldwide.</description>

		<description>I can see that Tibetans really had it with their current leaders and they want real democracy. The Tibetans want to see some sort of progress with the dialogue with China and not be put on hold indefinitely. I think they feel that the current leaders are not doing what is necessary to start fresh talks with China. Whatever on-going discussion has not bear any fruit and is definitely not working out. Unfortunately as well, it has become more and more blatant the corruption going on within the leadership ranks.</description>
