Tulku Ugen Topgyal: self-caricaturing your own labeling against His Holiness the Dalai Lama

In the wake of Tulku Ugen Topgyal’s inveighing expletives—‘devil’, ‘detractor of Buddha dharma’, ‘audience seeker’—, ineffably baseless and vulgar and unthinkable for an individual conscience as a Tibetan but stark infantile a series of the same designations coined by CCP leaders, against His Holiness the 14^th Dalai Lama of Tibet, one of the icons of refuge of this world in huge hubbub of emotional instability, I hold my ground of defending my icon of refuge thus, despite Lord Shantideva’s insightful caveat as to be able to stand as a tree, namely firm in one’s integrity, when someone inveighs against one’s guru, for such a someone is usually biased and gripped by a horrendous partiality. As a Tibetan, I want to remind myself and interested ones with such factual account that there was time once when guru Padmasambava, as mentioned in his pastoral, autobiographical annal Pema Kadu, happened to shed in such a way dithyrambically doleful lamenting about our being insensibly ungrateful ever to his doings for us. Aren’t we, and so to His Holiness the Dalai Lama even from now? Like this collective fate posed by this viral plague of now, besides defending our icon of refuge against such puerile labeling by a libertine in ordained form but trying to present as a prig, I take the opportunity to try to self-mirror and revise my own stand as how firm I am in taking His Holiness the Dalai Lama as my icon of refuge spiritually and temporally, namely how I can stand in face of such challenges, to see if I am collected myself as not to be acting childishly like the libertine himself in the form of hurling some outweighed wordings against him. Namely, if such as a one like the libertine himself can’t be reasoned that he is seemingly of the type so far from his past personal history of being such a jackanapes, then it’s, I think, better to leave him or her to rot, deliquesce, stink to deliver himself or herself out of it at last… Such happens but takes a long, long time ahead, for our instinct is of such always being self-deceptive to the extent of placing ourselves at the disposal of such mundane self-interests and sensual pleasures typically carnal ones but presenting as something else, so puritanical, so punctilious, or someone else as a good guy, as a defender of the sort.  

Covid-19: thanks, you let us connect to ourselves, if we have the guts to do so

'Social distancing' is a strange phrase for an anchorite, but it does matter in letting oneself, for a run-of-the-mill, slow down now, be at home and spend time with one's family, if one has, or connect to oneself more, like prompting oneself to take the situation as a dream that it's like the notion of oneself, this self-consequence to self-absorption. I know you can ignore someone's paranoid behaviors toward you, like taking that you're the source of this plague. I mean someone's narcissistic hues of such tipping out in such a way so strange now. Now, I don't care about such like an arched smirk but the ramifications of my own way of holding on to myself, this destructive but instinctive means. I think covid-19 is already within us, so, so long back. Don't think I'm making a joke, for I am at the front in my own way.

A well frog

By fully agreeing with the privileges of being an ordinary one in terms of stratatized social, economic norms of now, not of the depth and soundness of one's person and dignity, I do also second the greatness of pluralism and the fillip of having international aspect to any forms of creativity. But the fact remains the same backstreets in any countries now, especially even in the West. That is about the myopia of acting like a well frog, in Tibetan ཁྲོམ་པའི་སྦལ་བ་. And as per an old Indian saying, even a cur, a loutish mongrel, can act like a lion along the strip of his run. :D 

A tonic amid the huge jumble of thoughts and constructs

Like scratching an old scab, I tend to go back unwilling to let myself live down thus... But, at the same time, like letting myself at least try to form a cicatrizing pale ring around the wound, I am in love with the reality of interconnected network of origination or dependency to its infinity, much beyond your mathematical calculation and academic grandiosity so simply futuristic and bombastic. I wonder can your putting step on every entity of the galaxy matter in transforming yourself into a stable one at least at last. 

So we are Tibetans

I wonder why international medias aren't interested at all about such selflessly sublime act of Tibetan monasteries and Tibetans in Tibet donating that much to coronavirus infected ordinary Chinese on the ground, in those hellish hospitals, not in those as CCTV and CGTN present to the world, not in such a grandiose, storied complex rigged up in a week. Whoop, even now the West is fool, like during the Cultural Revolution as presented to them and their being that gullible. Yes, maybe as of their being that curious about coming into contact with something extraordinary and that from the external world that they know the best. If you ask me individually, I do, frankly, hate Chinese.

I happened to eavesdrop on so

"Tu connais jacuzzi, j-a-c-u-z-z-i? ...quand tu es enervé....," a young black woman of seemingly lissome stature, so cute that her doing herself up right before on the station platform did matter now to me, her dreadlocks worn in a smart bun as a crown on the crest of her head, was in the middle of a voice call with someone, seemingly possessive or presenting as so, or hard up, on the other end. But for me, the loner aboard RER A to Paris from a faubourg, jacuzzi that she presented as something so heavenly, so coveted after like she could remain in a one for her life time, as from the coyness even here reflected in the twinkling of her big, bit protruded eyes, presented as a timely mnemonic that let me indulge myself in dissecting everything related with it, the set to the notion of enjoying in it to the real time activity to sensations or any, to see if she could really endure it thus...  

Corona virus or what

Once someone asked me but rather as talking to himself saying he wondered about how he could sketch out a vignette involving a burst of adrenaline, typically anger, conquering every of his being. He was virtually serious. I happened to blurt out the only resource he could count on was his own, namely his being able to observe himself when he was gripped by such a one. And it's so tough, I know, I agree. And someone else beside me, now, says something else, rather a current affair. He says he wonders about the perfidy of digital, internet epoch. He means the veering of international attention, namely recognition, for being so audience-starved now, like from something real, people's future-oriented to something else crafted, a set up, for the future of a dastard regime. He says it's just a snide attempt, a fool's attempt. After much rambling about and tergiversating, he points to Hong Kong Plebeian's Movement to 'corona virus'.
