Samsara:

I have huge respect for Tibetians in general especially their hardworking nature and their willingness to adjust anywhere. I really respect them for their sincerity in life. I have a lot of Tibetian friends whose forefathers left Tibet in agony but they have with their hardwork made a respectful living whereever they are today.

But i do not have much respect for the monk/priest of any nature only because i think they are the people who live off others trying to prove themselves for nothing.

And so i have no high regards for this person Dalai Lama. I fail to understand his importance as Politician, Demi-God or even Contributor to the society. Well, i still do not agree with you in saying that he started this whole movement of 'free Tibet' because there is no movement and there is nothing to fight against. And also, i am sure he knows that he can never fight with China in any aspect.

People compare him with Mother Teresa or even Gandhi for that matter but please he is in no comparison to them. They were people who had wide options in front of them to a life of luxury and self -satisfaction but chose a life of great humbleness of serving others and living for a cause.

For Dalai Lama, it is almost a necessity rather than a cause because if he does not do something, his own existance would be nowhere. Who would know him if he chose to live a life somewhere else. Well i could be ignorant in many aspect but still i have no respect for a person who merely talks.

I have listened to some of his speeches and did not understand what he is talking about. He is repeating what other religions talks on peace.

But again this is only my opinion. We all are different and like Laxmi Prasad Devkota wrote in a poem: ( i do not beleive in what you do, your worship is my hatred, your belief is my stupidity and friend, your God is my stone)
