--The violence that continues against the Tibetan people is wrong, and it's not a game. --

in my opinion, the situation in tibet - like any other - 'just is.'

of all people, the tibetan buddhists should accept their karma - the results of the law of cause and effect.

doesn't a buddhist believe that she brings everything which happens to her upon her own self, through the law of cause and effect - in other words, 'karma?'

i think that buddhism - particularly in the u.s. - has become sugar-coated in this regard.

i've heard it again and again; a buddhist will talk about cause and effect - karma - but the minute anything 'bad' happens to anyone, someone else is to blame.

again, all of it is neither good nor evil - it simply 'just is.'

do you know that at the center of everything there is always one constant? it's called suffering.

that's real buddhism to me anyway.
