suchandra 1 Report post Posted May 14, 2008 Dear Suchandra, I think there's someone who probably knows more about Tibet's troubled internal situation than that Bhattacharya chick or anyone in here & that someone is none other than the 'Female Buddha' Thanks ARJ for commenting on article by Abanti Bhattacharya, yes, although I usually don't call people "chick" because they see things differently and not like the enlightened paramahamsas, you're still right. "The sins of the Dalai Lama and his followers seriously violate the basic teachings and precepts of Buddhism and seriously damage traditional Tibetan Buddhism's normal order and good reputation," This is basically what we also find in all the vedic books of knowledge, sinful living produces karma and at one point the karma appears, becomes manifest right in our physical situation. A religious leader of Buddhism should at least be aware of the basics what Lord Buddha preached, like ahimsa, non-violence and especially the killing of cows is very sinful and will finally bring all these so called materially advanced nations down. Going in the right direction is for example British Airways who ditched beef, although the Dalai Lama will not be very amused when taking a flight with British Airways - he must be instructed like this. Wednesday 14.05.08 British Airways takes beef off the menu to avoid offending Hindus Last updated at 16:37pm on 09.05.08 Add your view http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23483255-details/British+Airways+takes+beef+off+the+menu+to+avoid+offending+Hindus/article.do For decades the national dish has been a staple meal on the national carrier. But now British Airways has taken beef off the menu for economy passengers amid concerns about its "religious restrictions". BA's second-biggest long-haul market is to India, where the majority Hindu population do not eat beef because of their beliefs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
