Integrity: The Internal Root Cause We Do Lack in Practicality


Gyalwang Karmapa Rinpche strikes the right pivotal chord what we need as the prerequisite for safeguarding our unique religious and cultural values given the fact of diverse sectarian divisions that matter more diehard complex than regional case at the deeper faith-based intellectual level rather than more solvable geo-political ramifications. But the latter isn't that normal case being without an active guidance and unbiased and broader personal hold that sees such as a huge setback. Given the parameter of his allowed freedom of speech even here in exile Rinpoche is careful enough not to cast out a single phrase sounding political and do they from Tibet know the same? But what he stresses on what we do lack in practicality through our backward and narrow hold is, for me, the question of our survival in true sense that we wish or can say so. Rinpoche is aware that Integrity based on broader sense is everything for us now to come out real strong, dedicated and lasting ever. As it's curiously questionable how we lack thus even here on such political status, Rinpoche seems to take this core sense in us is as latent as how we sense of being a refugee rather than an expatriate.

BODH GAYA, January 7: Speaking exclusively to an audience of Tibetans from Tibet Thursday in Bodh Gaya, Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje called for unity amongst the Tibetan people and the preservation of Tibetan culture and religion within Tibet.


"The main condition that will allow Tibetans to preserve our religion and culture will be to pull together and to stand united,” Gyalwang Karmapa said while urging Tibetans to set aside sectarian divisions.


"We all share a common identity as Tibetans,” he said. “If that can be kept in mind, then together we can face whatever situations occur.”


Addressing the gathering of over 8000 devotees who are attending the ongoing Kalachakra teachings, Gyalwang Karmapa said that the “main job” for Tibetans still residing in their homeland is to “guard and preserve Tibetan culture and religion”.


"I want you to know that we here in exile are well aware of the sufferings and problems you face in Tibet. Do not despair, please think long term and seek out skillful means to guard the Tibetan religion and culture.”


Paying tribute to His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s “pivotal role” in uniting the Tibetan people, Gyalwang Karmapa praised the Dalai Lama for his activities and the vast scope of his vision in leading the Tibetan people.


"Today, Tibetans are able to overcome internal divisions and unite under the leadership of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, their supreme guide”.


Citing historical relationship between China and Tibet, the young Tibetan spiritual leader urged the Tibetan pilgrims from Tibet to maintain a good relationship with the Chinese citizens in China occupied Tibet.


"As a spiritual leader, His Holiness the Dalai Lama always focuses on love and compassion. We know the situation inside Tibet and we can understand your problems but always try to build friendship with the Chinese citizens,” Gyalwang Karmapa said.


Apparently referring to the recent spate of self-immolations inside Tibet, Gyalwang Karmapa urged Tibetans to preserve the Tibetan culture and the spirit of Tibet without ending one’s life.


"I have been studying hard since I came into exile. I am 26 now and I am determined to serve the Tibetan people in the future,” Gyalwang Karmapa said.


I am very hopeful that His Holiness the Dalai Lama will be able to return back to Tibet within his lifetime”.
