@agam4 i have a question... is the dali lama an athiest, in the sense he doesn't believe in a higher power.. and just in peace, soul, mind.....

or does he believe in some what of a "god" or a higher power

[agam4]

@fireking9934 Too complicated for a short answer and way above my competence. I'd ask you to search out his own statements on this subject, for a better result. I will say, Buddhism is not atheism. The many deities in Tibetan Buddhism can be seen as specific manifestations of what others would call "God". A higher power? I would say yes. But Lord Buddha was a man who taught possibly the first instance of "trust but verify". It's complicated. HHDL has spoken about this, better not listen to me.

During the seven-day Spring Festival "Golden Week" (Feb. 2-8, 2011), Tibet has received tourists of up to 83,899, 3.5% higher than that of last year, CNN reported.

During the week, more than 41,000 tourists stayed in Tibet for at least two days, 7.3% lower than that of the year 2010. Tibet has achieved tourist revenue of up to 59.14 million yuan, 6% higher than that of last year.

Tourists in Tibet Autonomous Region during the Spring Festival consist of self-driving tourists and pilgrims from the Tibetan-inhabited areas of neighboring provinces, according to the data released by the Tourist Administration of the region.

Due to the abnormal global climate, frigidity hit most part of China in winter with the northern part drought and the southern part affected by continuing snow and freezing weather. Therefore Tibet, which boasts strong sunshine, clean air and cozy weather, has become tourists' favorite resort during the Spring Festival.

“I would like to take this opportunity to renew my call to the government of China to release Mr. Liu Xiaobo and other prisoners of_ conscience who have been imprisoned for exercising their freedom of expression.”

"Awarding the Peace Prize to him Liu Xiaobo is the international community's recognition of the increasing voices among the Chinese people in pushing China towards political, legal and constitutional reforms.”
