Dalai Lama Wants Probe into Tibetan Website Hackings

Since 1959 His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso has received over 84 awards, honorary doctorates, prizes, etc., in recognition of his message of peace, non-violence, inter-religious understanding, universal responsibility and compassion.

Politics is a samsaric construct - and is the very oppasite to that which leads to liberation. If he must enguage with politics, so be it, but a spiritual leader should not be talking politics from the teaching throne it confuses people and leads them deeper into samsaric suffering. His teacher, The great Trijang Rinpoche, was also in the same situation, but he never ever talked politics! He was a true Lama. This is why I say The Dalai Lama is a politician in a monk's clothing.

My original point still stands - why is a so called spiritual man talking politics from the teaching throne instead of teaching compassion.  Again I say - when will the world wake up and see that this man is a politician with worldly concerns dressed in a monk's clothing...

He teaches mostly compassion and peace.
But yeah he has political opinions about China ruling over his home land. But at least he aint forcing anybody, he's just talking.

"He casts a shadow over Buddhism."
a benevolent shadow whereas cpc-ruled china casts ominous clouds wherever it goes, a threat to freedom, justice and human dignity.
who but the chinese could use "death vans", not seen since the nazis?

Why would a spiritual person talk politics from the teaching throne? When will the world wake up and see that this man is a politician dressed in monks clothes? He casts a shadow over Buddhism.

The Tibet cause is not against China, its cause of just, so I am confident that with their supreme sacrifices, the day will not be far when truth and justice will prevail for Tibet. People of Tibet making unique contribution to the world Peace. We International Community should stand for injustice in every Corner of World. TIBET is one example.
