Exile group says 30 killed in Tibet

We were moved to tears when we saw the latest video footage from half a world away. It is simply staggering to see Buddhist monks in their saffron robes and orange outrage at their master's chains. It is unimaginable to see the outrage of so many people, Tibetans, Chinese, Indians, Australians... The Pacific Rim seems to be on fire.

It is somewhat reminiscent of the two Buddhist monks who immolated themselves decades ago during the Vietnam war era. It was thought that they had done that to themselves in protest over the war. Some years later we learned that they had done so to protest the deplorable state of Buddhism in Viet Nam at that time.

Now the Buddhists are protesting their lack of freedom. We seem to see the coming of a Great Spirit. A Great Spirit to lead them (and the rest of us) free from the chains and shackles of despotism. It seems to be a real truth. All the emperors have fallen over time. The great wheel of time will extinguish all despotic instrumentalities and bureaucracies and forms of government with or without the successful protest of the Buddhists.

All religious peoples should unite under the saffron/orange banner of outrage of their Buddhist brothers. For today, all living beings should wake up (KWATZ!) and realize this is the beginning of freedom for all intelligent entities. Not just the world over, but throughout the universe.

We can almost foresee the coming of World Protest Day, July 4, 2009. Join us and the Great Spirit as we unite for world freedom.
