A great self-confession


Can you imagine more condescending word than 'shallow-pate'? Namely, brain-drained, monomaniac in the sense that you don't know or care if your life can be ended up thus, dedicated or sacrificed thus for a depraved woman, maybe your wife, for there being some children between you two? But you do still care more for her than your innocent children. Can the English word 'uxorious' suffice for such a one, or 'blind love", or any? What you call a man without any sense of dignity? I am eager to learn about such a one, for there are those Tibetan women or men abroad, who have happened to come abroad first, and later, after a few years, albeit taking his or her children and espouse abroad in the name of 'family union', he or she has already changed into someone else, so depraved taking that the West is for 'freedom', namely decadency. Can you imagine a Tibetan woman in her early fifties saying so? Where is the essence of the statement 'our cultural essence', our 'Tibetan ideals' that we are so ready to mouth? I am so curious, for being a Tibetan myself, a monastic product after all. Or those philistines in the name of Tibetan husbands or wives abroad first are well aware of Shakespeare's "All the world is a stage" in its that literal sense, to be hogged down whatever come bumping about in your way abroad? As a human soul changes, a Tibetan abroad changes--we should be able to accept it so. Mercy, we are all just commoners, philistines, parasites of the sort, and would be so forever, if we don't try to pursue the inverse means, namely to be able to disrupt our 'cognitive inertia', that sense of concreteness in its objectivity. I know, you can't have any idea about what I try to convey to your intuition.
