On 23rd November 2017, the Economic Times reported on the Dalai Lama’s latest remarks captured at a sharing organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce. During the event, the Dalai Lama strongly reiterated that he wants to be a part of China. He was very clear and very firm about this, leaving no room for misinterpretation.
His remarks have shone a contradictory light on many Tibetans around the world who have recently been issuing calls against the Dalai Lama’s Middle Way Approach (umaylam) for autonomy under China. These Tibetans include various members of Parliament who recently journeyed to Paris for a conference focused on rangzen (full independence), where they brainstormed ideas to counter the Dalai Lama’s umaylam, and also took the time to enjoy the various sights and attractions that ultra expensive Paris has to offer. These Tibetan members of Parliament of course have that type of money to travel.
The fact is that the Dalai Lama has made it very clear what he wants, and what he thinks is best for the Tibetan people. Therefore:
- All Tibetans who are grateful and loyal to the Dalai Lama should also agree with his views. In light of this, they should immediately adopt the China flag in all Tibetan communities throughout India and Nepal. The Dalai Lama has called for Tibetans to come under autonomous Chinese rule, and one sign of this is to fly the Chinese flag.
- If Tibetans continue to use the Tibetan flag, it reflects their desire for Tibetan independence and their refusal to come under the Chinese flag. How will such actions show the Chinese leadership that the Dalai Lama is sincere in what he says? Tibetans need to demonstrate that they are sincere towards the unification of Tibet and China, and sincere in their support of His Holiness the Dalai Lama which they have always claimed to be. Therefore while adopting the China flag may seem contradictory to some, it is actually important to make reconciliatory gestures towards China to show the sincerity of the Dalai Lama’s wishes. Flying the China flag would be in support of the Dalai Lama’s wish for Tibet to come under Chinese leadership.
- When the Dalai Lama has so clearly stated his views and what he thinks is good for Tibetans, any other views (such as independence) are against the Dalai Lama. If you are against the Dalai Lama’s views, you are against him, plain and simple. Hence those who continue to fly the Tibetan flag and call for full independence, are actually sabotaging the Dalai Lama’s statements and wishes for autonomy. They are anti-Dalai Lama traitors and paid schism makers within the Tibetan communities.
- All Tibetans should now extend a hand to China and create inroads with a view towards befriending them. The Tibetan leadership should stop antagonizing the Chinese, and stop encouraging Tibetans to protest against the Chinese if they really want the Dalai Lama’s wishes to come true. When you protest against and antagonize a powerful entity, what will entice or encourage them to grant these concessions to you? Why would anyone who has been subjected to name-calling and insults, be motivated to grant your wishes?
- So if Tibetans and their leadership want the Dalai Lama to visit Tibet, they have to stop protesting against China. To continue protesting against China therefore, or to speak ill of them, will sabotage the Dalai Lama’s chances of returning to Tibet. To call for Tibetan independence is to go against the Dalai Lama when he has already said that Tibetans should seek autonomy.
How much more clear can the Dalai Lama be? The Dalai Lama has very clearly said that he wants autonomy for Tibetans and he feels this is the best route to pursue. Any other views that diverge from this, is a clear contradiction against what the Dalai Lama wants. The Tibetan leadership often say that the Dalai Lama is all-knowing, and when they enforce illogical, undemocratic policies like the Dorje Shugden ban, they say that it is because “the Dalai Lama said so” or that it is what the Dalai Lama wants.
Well, now the Dalai Lama wants autonomy, and does not want rangzen (full independence). Will the Tibetan leadership start issuing statements instructing their people to push for autonomy, or will they continue to remain silent and allow the rangzen protests to go on? In allowing the rangzen protests to go on, they will be allowing Tibetans to contradict the Dalai Lama’s calls for umaylam (autonomy). Are the Tibetans going to head against the Dalai Lama and his wishes or obey and cooperate to achieve his wishes?
Now it is finally time for the Tibetan leadership to put their money where their mouth is. Everyone will be watching and waiting to see what they do next. If you obey the Dalai Lama’s wishes for Tibet to be a part of China then you are patriotic. You have to start using the Chinese flag. If you want Tibet to be independent of China, then you are against the wishes of the Dalai Lama. Are you willing to go against the wishes of the Dalai Lama? Are you not patriotic? Are you against the Dalai Lama? Samdhong Rinpoche said that the people fighting for the independence of Tibet are the most dangerous group of people within Tibetan society in exile. Are you on His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s side or not?

Dalai Lama ban Shugden practice.
You practice Shugden, then you are traitor.
Dalai Lama wants autonomy under China.
You want independence (rangzen), you are a traitor.
Do not cherry pick instructions from Dalai Lama. He is the King of Tibet and what he says must be obeyed or you are a un-patriotic traitor and a Chinese spy.
No democracy. 👍

All the people fighting for rangzen (independence) are totally against His Holiness the Dalai Lama. They go against his divine will. He is Chenresik. They against his wishes. They are traitors and Chinese spies. Rangzen people are the most dangerous people within Tibetan society all around the world and we must keep a watch on them. Samdhong Rinpoche said the same thing.
This is Samdhong Rinpoche speech about rangzen people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn62-WmDFg4&t=4s

The Tibetan leaders have their own agenda. They have been using the Dalai Lama’s name for their own purpose. Now, there are traitors at every turn among the Tibetans. So, with the Rangzen supporters being more vocal and out-rightly going against the wishes of the Dalai Lama, there are now more anti-Dalai Lama traitors. traitors, traitors, traitors everywhere.

We rangzen people have fought for Tibet’s independence for decades since our parent’s lost Tibet. Now His Holiness speaks like this. It disappoints us younger generation of Tibetans very much. It makes us think deeper and realize many other things Dalai Lama said should not be believed on face value and must think deeper. Within our Swiss communities of Tibetans, because of Dalai Lama’s speech, we avoided Tibetans that practiced Shugden. Now we realize they are Tibetans just like us but of a different faith. We should accept them as they are Tibetans. Samdhong Rinpoche said we should not eat and associate with them as they are Shugden practitioners, but this is wrong advice. Samdhong Rinpoche is dividing our people and is wrong.
Samdhong Rinpoche ruined his work as a high lama by dabbling with politics. Many do not respect him anymore.😖

The Dalai Lama wants the Middle Way or Umaylam, and the Dalai Lama doesn’t want Dorje Shugden.
So those who want Full Independence from China or Rangzen are against the Dalai Lama. Those who practice Dorje Shugden are also against the Dalai Lama. Both groups are in the same situation. Are both groups against the Dalai Lama or are both groups simply exercising their democratic rights?

Some politician in CTA is obviously using Dalai Lama for their benefits. When Dalai Lama said that Dorje Shugden can be practice, the CTA do not immediately lift the ban, in fact they enforce it by producing many books and videos. When Dalai Lama now said want to be part of China, the CTA have hold meeting to counter the ideas of Dalai Lama. Thus, what is CTA doing? Obviously, they are not sincere in following the Dalai Lama order. They just wanted to use Dalai Lama to get more donation.

What is happening in Dharamsala?
Tibetans Stage Demonstration Near CTA Dharamshala
November 27, 2017
This morning a group of Tibetans have gathered at the basket ball ground in the vicinity of Central Tibetan Administration compound in Dharamshala holding placards calling for the protection of integrity in Tibetan administration. The demonstration is being held in relation to the issue of ousting the North America representative Mr. Penpa Tsering earlier this month.
The demonstration as being circulated in the internet a video interview with one of the participants demands the CTA to assign an independent committee to make an investigation in the issue of Kashag’s decision to replacing the North America representative Mr. Penpa Tsering. They demonstrators are arguing that the decision was not fair from the side of Kashag which pointed out 10 reasons in replacing the representative.
Kashag’s (Cabinet Secretary) Additional Secretary Mr. Phuntsok Tsering has been handed a memorandum from the demonstrators which the secretary informed that will be discussed during the bi-weekly cabinet meetings at the Central Tibetan Administration scheduled on Tuesdays and Fridays.
According to the interview, there are approximately around 100 people gathered for the demonstration who have come from different places like Nepal, Delhi, Bylakuppe, Dehradun, Dharamshala, etc.
The Kashag on November 7 appointed the Education Kalon Ngodup Tsering as the new Representative of North America based in Washington DC. The Kashag cited the removal of incumbent representative Mr. Penpa Tsering as per Chapter 1 Article 1(3) of the Tibetan Charter and Article 19(1) of the Tibetan Public Service Commission rules and regulations. It further issued a 10 point clarification for the removal of the representative on November 11.

The Economics Times is the world’s second-most widely read English-language business newspaper, after the Wall Street Journal, with a readership of over 800,000. Based in India with its publication available stimutaneously in 12 cities, I would say what Economic Times report has its credibility. Therefore, it cannot be misreporting when it said Dalai Lama wants to be a part of China. The report was dated 23 Dec 2017 capturing this remark by Dalai Lama during an event organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce.
So, why is CTA and the Tibetans in exile not taking action and follow Dalai Lama’s view. Does the no-action means that Dalai Lama has lose his influence over the CTA and Tibetans? Since there are a numbers of high ranking CTA personnels already joined a group that champions for Independence for Tibet against Tibetan Autonomy by Dalai Lama, will the Dalai Lama now return to China alone?
This fact alone shows that the CTA knows there is nothing in it for them if Tibetan Autonomy takes place. Dalai Lama is a different story because of his God King status, he will be instated as a figure head. But the positions holder in CTA will have no bargaining chip. They have no credential, no results to show that they can be of any use to the people and to Beijing. Therefore it is better for them to conjure up a new direction – which is Tibet Independence – even it is in the risk of against the Dalai Lama. It is a poor strategy but that is the best they can do to “safe” themselves from a disgraceful end they deserved!

Tibet cannot be back in China’s good book is because of CTA!!!! the corrupted CTA!!!! Dalai Lama wants the middle-way but CTA wants Rangzen or independence!

Historic protest against CTA targets Penpa Tsering dismissal
By Lobsang Wangyal
McLEOD GANJ, India, 27 November 2017
For the first time in nearly 60 years, Tibetans in exile held a protest against the Cabinet (Kashag) of the Central Tibetan Administration. They were challenging its controversial decision to sack the Representative of the Dalai Lama to North America in Washington DC.
Kashag had announced on 7 November that Representative Penpa Tsering had been fired from his position. He has been ordered to leave office on 30 November.
About 100 people gathered at the basketball ground on the premises of the CTA demonstrating against the Kashag’s action. The protestors also expressed dissatisfaction with the 10-point response that had been issued by the Cabinet.
Last week a few dozen Tibetans staged a protest in New York City over the same issue. A few also protested in Toronto, Canada, during Lobsang Sangay’s visit to the country.
The majority of the demonstrators in Dharamshala are from McLeod Ganj. A few had travelled from other places. While carrying out their peaceful silent protest, an announcer said that if any outsiders come to provoke them, they would not use any violence against them.
Banners hanging on the walls read: Movement for promotion of CTA’s integrity; No misuse of power; Do not destroy His Holiness’ legacy; No disregard to public aspirations; and, We need an independent commission to resolve the matter immediately.
Dolma Bam, one of the staunch supporters of Lobsang Sangay in the 2011 election, was among the protestors today. He said, “We are not protesting against the CTA. We are seeing an injustice. There is not a good reason to sack Penpa Tsering. I feel that Lobsang Sangay is destroying the CTA. We are here to protect the CTA from destruction.”
“We are no more able to trust and rely on Lobsang Sangay. There is lack of honesty and justice, and the reasons given by Kashag are unacceptable,” he said.
Sherab Dolma, 81, who was the oldest among the protestors, said, “I would like the Kashag to be truthful. Do not dismiss those who are working hard.”
“I don’t know if the Kashag will pay heed to us, but it will be a shame for them. It is for the first time that the public is protesting against it.”
Organic farmer Rinzin Dorje travelled the longest distance to participate in the demonstration, from Bylakuppe in South India. Dorje said, “I was shocked to hear about the sacking of Representative Penpa Tsering. It came all of a sudden. The Kashag’s decision doesn’t do any good for the Tibetan cause.”
“None of the 10-point reasons given by Kashag calls for expulsion of a Representative from his duty. We now call for the formation of an independent committee to give a recommendation after impartial investigation of information from both the sides.”
Dorje added that if the matter doesn’t get a fair judgment, they will continue with their agitation.
Salam (who uses only one name), 36, had travelled from Goa to join the protest. “I am neither supporting Lobsang Sangay, nor Penpa Tsering. I am here to support the truth. Penpa Tsering has rejected Kashag’s 10-point charges. That has raised the question.”
“We do not need explanation, we need the reason why Penpa Tsering was expelled. We have the right to know. We demand an independent committee to investigate the matter.”
Tsultrim Dorje, 53, had come from Kathmandu, Nepal. He said he voted for Lobsang Sangay in the 2011 election. “I have heard lies over the years from Lobsang Sangay as the leader. He has been deceiving the people.”
He said that Kashag’s ten reasons created more doubts than clarity. “Unless justice is done, we will not stop our movement.”
One of the protestors left his winter sweater business and travelled to Dharamshala to join the demonstration. Tsering Wangchuk, 36, is from Dekiling, but does his winter sweater business in Rajasthan. He said that Penpa Tsering has not made any comments so far out of respect for the rules. “I have full confidence that Penpa Tsering will come out clean from this situation.”
A protestor from Sikkim said that she is a ‘Denjongpa’, but her husband who passed away a few years ago, was a Tibetan. She said, “I am here to support truth and justice. Kashag’s reasons are not satisfactory. The Dalai Lama is working so hard for Tibet, and what the Kashag has done makes me worry about what China will think. Tibetans should work in unity to achieve their goals.”
Five representatives of the protestors approached the Cabinet Secretariat to present a memorandum. The Additional Secretary of the Secretariat Phuntsok Tsering received the memorandum from them at the entrance of the Secretariat, and said that he will hand over the memorandum to the Cabinet tomorrow when the President of CTA and the ministers meet for their weekly meeting.
Answering questions from the the media, he said, “People have the right to demonstrate in a democratic society. Kashag will look into their demands and will make a decision.”
Penpa Tsering has said that he will respond to the Kashag’s 10-point charges against him after he leaves his office on 30 November.

The Dalai Lama said that he cannot change his religion to enter into the Hindu temple. He wants to visit the Hindu temple, but he cannot change his religion. Only those of Hindu faith can enter this temple. He tried to enter by saying indirectly make an exception. But the Hindu priest said no. Even for the Dalai Lama, a big celebrity, the rules cannot be changed. It would have been nice if the priest did change the rules because the temple is to be visited by all and blessings are for everyone.
Similarly, Dorje Shugden people cannot change their religion so they cannot enter the Dalai Lama’s temple. So the situation is exactly the same. It would be nice if the Dalai Lama himself can change his rules too.

The Dalai Lama wanting to be a part of China is in line with his Middle Way approach for autonomy of Tibet under China.If the Dalai Lama has reiterated so strongly that he wants to be a part of China, then it is time the CTA start the ball rolling for this to happen. The first step is to stop bashing Dorje Shugden practitioners as paid China spies, when there is no basis for this allegation. This is also bound to provoke the anger of China.
Indeed, it will be wise for CTA to follow the Dalai Lama’s lead. Countries all over the world are leaning backwards to be friends with China. CTA is not likely to gain support and mileage with their foreign sponsors if they continue to play the play the hostile anti-China card.CTA, however is not showing 100 % support for the Dalai Lama, as can be seen in the gathering of members of CTA in Paris and their lending support to the Rangzen (Independence)cause.
The Dalai Lama has expressed a desire to return to Tibet. CTA should be working purposefully and diligently to ensure that the Dalai Lama’s wish is fulfilled.

Tibetans protested against Lobsang Sangay outside the Office of Tibet but what response did they get from the Central Tibetan Administration? Lobsang Sangay and his administration not only failed to give satisfactory reasons why Penpa Tsering was removed from his position, he is now creating more dismay among Tibetan communities worldwide.

Dear readers,
Why are the Tibetan govt in exile not ordering their people to stop the self immolations? They dictate to them everything else they want as the Tibetan government is a dictatorship and regime and not the democracy they pretend to be.
Why do they allow the tragic loss of lives. Are they allowing their own people to self immolate so they can pressure the international community to do something? Are they letting their own people die for their own gains?
The international community will not do anything because they would rather do business with China to better the lives of their own citizens. Helping the Tibetans gives them nothing. If Tibetans want the self immolations to stop, then the Dalai Lama and Tibetan ‘government’ in exile will have to humble down and plead with China to come to begin talks again. China is Tibet’s key. By the Dalai Lama and his ‘government’ in exile always critizing China in Western medias will not make China come to talk. Who will talk to you to better your situation if you are always berating them?
If the horrible and tragic self immolations are to stop, then Dalai Lama and his ‘government’ in exile must be humble and beg China to talk and negotiate. Tibet holds no power and China holds all the power. Tibet stands to gain if Dalai Lama and his people humble down on behalf of all the Tibetans. Don’t let the lives of those self immolated have no meaning.

Prominent Buddhists in North America welcome the suspension of the Dalai Lama’s Personal Emissary of Peace, Tenzin Dhonden. Although it is not official that Tenzin Dhonden has been permanently replaced as he has hired a New York legal firm to reclaim his position on the trust, a temporary replacement has been appointed as the organisation’s “acting secretary”. It is unfortunate that His Holiness the Dalai Lama is surrounded by officials who seemed to be self-serving. This incident, and the sudden removal of Penpa Tsering are series of scandals that continue to expose more corruption and abuses within the top Tibetan leadership circle. You can read below:

Did HH the Dalai Lama really say and truly believe all these words cited above??? Or is this fake news (like all those fake obits of famous people that go around every once in a while)? This seems to be in direct opposition to the nightmare the Tibetans existing in Tibet have undergone. Did His Holiness truly say all this? It seems to make a mockery of all those Tibetans who perished or somehow survived the viciousness that Beijing’s China’s has inflicted upon so many Tibetans and their culture since 1950. All those people murdered just because they held true to their Tibetan culture, etc. — is that to be made a mockery of now?
What do the Tibetan people in Tibet who’ve been clinging to the shreds of their lives want — that is what the UN and the Dalai Lama should be defending.

So many defending the Tibetans for holding tight to their culture. What about those Tibetans holding on tight to their culture and religious belief? Any thought got that?
How can they only think of themselves. Can they not think only for themselves but for the whole of Tibet, regardless. Surely, that must be the lesson to be learnt here. Practice kindness. Don’t just say kindness is my religion and turn around and discriminate against Dorje Shugden practitioners.

The Dalai Lama has banned the Dorje Shugden practice, yet millions around the world are exercising their democratic rights by practicing Dorje Shugden, so the CTA should not segregate and discriminate against them.
The Dalai Lama has banned the Rangzen (Tibet Independence) movement, yet many are exercising their democratic rights by continuing to pursue for Tibet’s independence.
Video: Rangzen people are more dangerous than Dorje Shugden people by Prof Samdhong Rinpoche: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn62-WmDFg4
The Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) are very defiant, within days after the Dalai Lama said that “Tibetans want to stay with China”, the TYC has announced it will take out a nationwide campaign in India calling for independence for Tibet. Shouldn’t the Tibetan leadership in Dharamsala and Dalai Lama take action against the Rangzen people? Dalai Lama has expressed that he wishes to visit Tibet and see the 6 million Tibetans before he passes. The only way to do this is to become friends with China. If that is the case, if Rangzen activist protest against China, would this not jeopardize his wishes? Tibetans are always saying they owe so much to the Dalai Lama and if this is so, shouldn’t they help the Dalai Lama return to Tibet by becoming friends with China? The first step is that the Dalai Lama and his exiled govt (CTA) in Dharamsala, North India, must start using the China flag. Show some concessions. Make China happy. If Dalai Lama wants to be an autonomous state of China under China, he has to be sincere by using the China flag first. After all, all the world leaders are now refusing to meet on official terms the Dalai Lama. Dalai Lama is being banned from more and more countries. More heads of state are scrambling to make friends with China and not Dalai Lama. To be friends or friendly with Dalai Lama will bring no economic benefits to their countries. China is the largest economy in the world now and is still growing. By being friends with China, many countries will benefit their economy and that is the first priority of all world leaders.
More leaders are not meeting the Dalai Lama and his popularity is dropping. Even if Tibetans want to use violence to overcome China, it will be impossible. Six million Tibetans cannot withstand the might of the 1.2 billion Chinese in warfare. The best route is the Dalai Lama’s middle way which is to become an autonomous state under China and he can return to Tibet to visit and see his followers who are waiting for him. All countries should not use Dalai Lama as a trump card to irritate China because of the competition with China. It is better to be friends with a super-power such as China.

CTA would like to downplay Samdhong Rinpoche’s private visit to China. The fact is, in order for him to go, he needs permission of India government, China government and Dalai Lama. For someone as high profile as him and who has criticised China for decades to be even allowed to go to China shows you that he is not going there for excursion, holidays or just to meet relatives. It will definitely be something official. Since he is going as the envoy of the Dalai Lama, it is definitely to negotiate with the China government regarding Tibet’s autonomy and Dalai Lama’a returning back, it could not be anything else. Therefore it is important for CTA and all Tibetans and their supporters to stop criticising China so that the negotiation goes through smoothly, and there will be a positive resolution for Tibet and a chance for the Dalai Lama to visit China and Tibet. The irony is, after Samdhong Rinpoche visited china, he is not accused to be colluding with China government for Tibet, HE HIMSELF is going to China. So there is no point in accusing Dorje Shugden people of befriending China, because the Tibetans exiled leaders are going to China themselves now.
