| Quote of the moment |
| A real "Tibethood" was born from the difficult passage in the long history of Tibet. Centuries and centuries of rootedness can make you forget that feeling. The bonds with the earth seem secure, untouchable. Then something unexpected happens that calls those bonds into question. You discover a cynical brutality, the crushing use of force, your own weakness. Finally, you leave, you never see your country except from far away. It gets ravaged, occupied, and still you realize that it hasn't disappeared, that it subsists in you, that you still feel Tibetan. Then you begin to wonder, what does being Tibetan mean? |

| Quote of the moment |
| Perhaps in monasteries in the West there is leisure, but outside - especially in the cities - life seems to be running at a rapid pace, like a clock, never stopping for an instant! So if you look at life in an urban community, it seems as if every aspect of a person's life has to be so precise, designed like a screw that has to fit exactly in the hole. In some sense, you have no control over your own life. In order to survive, you have to follow this pattern and the pace that is set for you. |
| ~ The Path to Tranquility, September 6, 14th Dalai Lama ~ |
