Tibet – I Stand With Tibet – The Rudi-Grant Connection

Whole Dude – Whole Sacrifice – Tibetan Martyr’s Day

The term ‘Martyr’ is related to Greek word ‘martys’ which means a witness, Latin word ‘memor’ which means mindful, and Sanskrit word ‘smarati’ which means (he) remembers. Hence, ‘Martyr’ as a person has to be described by sharing as to what that person witnessed, as to what he(or she) is mindful, and as to what he remembers. Martyr is a person who dies as consequence of exposure to long-continued suffering, torment, or torture. Martyr is a person who remembers his experience or experience of others who suffer and suffered. Martyr is a person who chooses to suffer or die rather than give up his faith or principles. Martyr is a person who assumes an attitude of self-sacrifice or suffering in order to arouse feelings in others for his faith or belief.

Whole Dude – Whole Diversity – Whole Concept

Tibet may be best known for its bounty of ancient Buddhist monasteries and stark natural beauty—but it’s also blessed with a vast diversity of languages. The Tibetan Plateau is home to more than a dozen distinct local tongues, many of which come with their own elaborate character systems. Unfortunately, thanks to the growth of internet infrastructure and state-sponsored education, many of these lesser-spoken languages are now on the brink of extinction, says University of Melbourne anthropologist Gerald Roche.

Whole Dude – Whole Heritage

I was posted to 54 Infantry Division (popularly known as Bison Division) in December 1974 on completion of my service on deputation to Special Frontier Force (Establishment 22). My Indian Army Service helped me to learn about my Buddhist Heritage and to discover my Nagarjuna Connection.

Whole Dude – Whole Trip

In my Dream Trip to Mount Everest or Qomolangma, the mighty mountain gives me testimony in support of true Tibetan Identity. Mount Everest proclaims that Tibet is never a part of China.

Special Frontier Force – The Doctrine of Tibetan Resistance: The Problem of War and Peace in Tibet. Can we order Peace for the sake of War, and not War for the sake of Peace? It may be argued that Peace is Inevitable or it may be stated that War is Inevitable. The problem is the absence of Natural Order, Natural Condition, Natural Power, and Natural Authority in the Land of Tibet and in the lives of Tibetans. I state that Resistance is Inevitable, Resistance will Endure, and Resistance will Prevail if there is no Natural Order in Tibet. Tibet can Resist, Tibet will Resist, and Tibetan Resistance will Prevail until the Natural Order is restored in Tibet.Tibetan Identity is a reflection of Tibetan Consciousness and Tibetan Resistance is the natural reaction to occupation.

Norbulingka, literally the “Jeweled Garden,” is a palace and its surrounding parks located in a western suburb of Lhasa. It was constructed in the 1740s as a summer palace for the Dalai Lama, the Supreme Ruler of Tibet and later served the whole governmental administration. The place boasts typical Tibetan palace architecture, as well as gentle streams, dense and lush forestry, birds and animals. Covering an area of around 36 hectares, it is considered to be the largest man-made garden in Tibet. Being part of the “Historic Ensemble of the Potala Palace,” Norbulingka is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site
