there was nothing wrong with what he did.. only stuck up pricks would view this as an insult. its quite OBVIOUS that dalai lama had no problem with it, plus the mayor got permission beforehand to do this. people just find the most petty things to complain about.. get over it assholes

I view this as a wonderful meeting of a gentle, perpetually interested and curious man discovering a new way to greet people. His Holiness the Dalai Lama has always been the most personable of all religious leaders, and it is that very attitude that has ensconced him in hearts the world over.

It is just the way it is. Cultural differences. We bow and we fist. May not be as sacred as bowing but fisting is a sign of buddy system as well. So, overall, I felt warmth. His Holiness is not bias so it is truly a remarkable meeting. I see.
Huey, btw I'm not singling you out. I've been reading a BUNCH of bs from our esteemed "journalists" at the CA, etc.

Wow. What a bunch of narrowminded shallow individuals. If you read about the Dalai Lama, you'd know protocol is embarrasing to him. He sees himself as a simple man. And did you bother listening to what Myron said? Wharton stood by like a decoration. Which is pretty much what he is. Nice fellow, but what has he done?
