Everything is in temples, therefore, Tibetans pay respect from different directions and prostrating whenever sees any signs of three Jewels. We, Tibetans built our homes also near by monasteries. This way we feel save and secure. Under the protection of monasteries Tibetans have lived for thousand of years.

Monastery is school and we learn things for free, Monasteries is hospital provide us free health care. Nowadays, even monasteries provide us to learn English, Chinese and even schedule villagers to participate Dharma teachings, some of monasteries provide adult centers to special old citizen care.

In our lives , monastic community is indispensable. For example: when people passed away, or some body got sick monastery and monk are places and people to ask for prayer and help. When some body got new baby or get married monastery is the place to get new name for baby and get auspicious dates for matrimony.

One of the most effective service monastery and monks provide is to help so many villages and people when they got argument each other or even fight for any reason monasteries is the place to go Seattle down the cases, specially after Chinese divided all the grassland in nomadic area. Animals didn’t get enough grass to eat. Some family has to protect their own grass yard make sure they have enough grass for their own animal. This new problem brought in nomadic area by Chinese. Some area in the past few lives were lost because of fight on grass to feed animal.

The most happiest activities we do is circumambulations around temples and prayer and to build Mandala offering. Visualization of whole entire world as treasures mountain, rivers, even sun and moon offering to precious three Jewels Buddha, Dharma and Sangga accumulate meritorious deeds.

Unfortunately, devil communist came to Tibet, accused monasteries were the Landlords of exploitation took away monasteries property rights, destroyed all the relic statue of Buddha’s, killed thousands of monks and burnt down all the religious monumental and texts.

My three precious Jewel. Oh glorious monasteries, only thing left behind are destroyed walls and broken ramparts.

Buddha, Dharma and Sangga, we all brutalized and deeply hurt. We are in fear and scaring our lives each and every single day.

China, these were not only damages and sufferings brought to us, The most hurtful is that every time they baselessly accusing our great compassionate leader H.H the Dalai Lama and China‘s constant criticize and propagating Tibetan Exile government is only a group of Post-liberation land Lords.

We all know Tibetan population in exile is from cross the country, majority are from peasants, nomads and our ancestors grazing sheep, yaks, horse escaped under Chinese rains of bullets.

Because our supreme leader H.H’s left is simply sun set above us for ever, life in dark, died or alive simply not different. Everything can change on the world but our faith will never change.

Earth Quack in Yushu in Tibet is a great example. Monks and Nuns first came, selflessly helped thousands regardless racial ethnicity this absolutely proved that Buddha, Dharma and Sangga are our best protection and helper.

Nevertheless after all the hard works monks and nuns have done day and night first few days, for Chinese propaganda TV news camera game, China brought plenty lazy military garages called rescuer team, forcedly ordered Monks withdrawal from the scene, shamelessly criticized monks’ way of rescuer people. After few hours work almost all Chinese rescuers stay group by group just talk and eat even sleep in tents. Nobody really cared about rescuer people underneath debris.

This is such a absurd Drama or disgraceful China’s political game on humanitarian cause.
