The True Face Of The Dalai Lama
by Kalovski at 4-2-8
http://www.rense.com/general81/faeeof.htm
[Part.1]
This is a backgrounder of the struggle in Tibet and how the US has been building up Dalai Lama
to pursue their ideological struggle. In the US many uninformed people had been awed by his
philosophy on "peace" and "non-violence". This article will bare facts to the real color and
intent of the Lama, why the US had given him a Nobel Prize and many more. - Kalovski Itim, The
True Story of Maoist Revolution in Tibet, When the Dalai Lamas Ruled: Hell on Earth
Revolutionary Worker #944, February 15, 1998
Hard Climate, Heartless Society
Tibet is one of the most remote places in the world. It is centered on a high mountain plateau
deep in the heart of Asia. It is cut off from South Asia by the Himalayas, the highest mountains
in the world. Countless river gorges and at least six different mountain ranges carve this
region into isolated valleys. Before all the changes brought about after the Chinese revolution
of 1949, there were no roads in Tibet that wheeled vehicles could travel. All travel was over
winding, dangerous mountain trails­by mule, by foot or by yaks which are hairy cow-like mountain
animals. Trade, communications and centralized government were almost impossible to maintain.
Most of Tibet is above the tree-line. The air is very thin. Most crops and trees won't grow
there. It was a struggle to grow food and even find fuel for fires.
At the time of the revolution, the population of Tibet was extremely spread out. About two or
three million Tibetans lived in an area half the size of the United States­about 1.5 million
square miles. Villages, monasteries and nomad encampments were often separated by many days of
difficult travel.
Maoist revolutionaries saw there were "Three Great Lacks" in old Tibet: lack of fuel, lack of
communications, and lack of people. The revolutionaries analyzed that these "Three Great Lacks"
were not mainly caused by the physical conditions, but by the social system. The Maoists said
that the "Three Great Lacks" were caused by the "Three Abundances" in Tibetan society: "Abundant
poverty, abundant oppression and abundant fear of the supernatural."

  • I am glad I do not live in Tibet. These ppl looks like ahole snobs!

    

  • @buciorjakub DUDE do you know Dalai lama is a god in Tibetan Buddhism. in fact he is the god of past, present and future. yes Buddhism is about compassion, but looks at the Tibetan history, all the monks owed slaves, its that compassion????, I not against Buddhism here, in fact Buddhism is the only religions that can explain the facts how the human mind words, such as what you think, you become if you think the way you think, you can only become that person. your true is not my true. peace DX..

  • @powerofthroughts not every tibetan depends in the dalai lama, not every tibetan believes in superstition not even the dalai lama believes in everything that his religion says also you cannot say that it is completely bull unless you have experienced it for your self like i said its up to the individual, i myself want to experience many different paths of buddhism and other beliefs in order to find the truth and so do many others, forget the lamas just examine the teachings themselves
