This is a system of knowledge which is governed by reason and logic and has the potential to contribute to the peace and happiness of all beings. Therefore, the policy of undermining such a culture, instead of protecting and developing it, will in the long run amount to the destruction of humanity’s common heritage.

[HHTHEDALAILAMA]

The PRC is a country comprising many nationalities, enriched by a diversity of languages and cultures. Protection of the language and culture of each nationality is a policy of the PRC, which is clearly spelt out in the chinese constitution. Tibetan is the only language to preserve the entire range of the Buddha’s teachings, including the texts on logic and theories of knowledge (epistemology), which we inherited from India’s Nalanda University.

So... The Tibetian government in exile is nothing more than a bunch of feudal exiles grouped with religious and nationalistic folk, raging against machine and global culture. But their stupidity is rather pointless. The region nowadays is rather lucky, receiving huge investments and privileges from the Chinese government, which would bring smooth development to it.

@eastern2western

If you want to call the Tibetan Freedom Fighters terrorists you also have to call the evil communist party TERRORISTS because they oppress by fear and violence. Check your dictionary if you like.

terrorize = oppress by fear, violence
