Tibet Oral History Project: Tibet Remembered

Learn more at http://www.TibetOralHistory.org. The Tibet Oral History Project aims to preserve the true history of the Tibetan people. At the request of His Holiness the Dalai Lama we record the life experiences of Tibetan elders who were forced to flee their homeland following the Chinese invasion. His Holiness has emphasized the urgency of conducting interviews of these elders before they pass away and their stories are lost forever. The Tibet Oral History Project enables donors from around the world to contribute to keeping the invaluable history of Tibet alive for generations to come.

and btw Refuge does not make one a ''buddhist''

[buddhafollower]

what great idea? everithing is impermanent. if you realize, you deserve to call yourself a buddhist, if not, don t think that Refuge will save you form death. it will not.

you are just like the people next door saying ''let s save the 100 year old grampa of...'' he is dying, what do you want to do? we tibetan buddhists in the past were greatly attached to Tibet. now maybe the holy Guru s want to give us a lesson on impermanence :) Namo Guru be :)

Thanks for the video.. Its an excellent project to record the sufferings of our ancestors before they perish. I pray that the those Tibetans who have suffered under Chinese colonization may born in a free society and free of all suffering in there next life. And I pray for myself that I would be born as a Tibetan and close to Kundun in every life.

United we stand and Divide we fall...... Get up Stand Up..Stand up for you Right.

FREE TIBET.

This is a good idea, witnesses are slowly dying!

[mispistoleros]

i agree, thanks for this video on a very worthwhile project.

bg24955, it'd be great if you knew someone who witnessed the scenes you describe or someone who heard of it when it happened.

it's no comparison but one of the most beautiful gifts i ever received was a recorded interview of my parents which my brother and his wife did years ago. they prompted them on things about their youth, hopes, desires, perceptions of the world in which they lived. my father since died..to hear his voice again!
