The Dalai Lama And Tibet's Future | Explorer

Music in the future, the bed I always so hope will be a democratic elected leadership power of people. People spoil it is feminine. Oh, and you're playing the longer the great patient war. Yes, that's yours, okay. The Dalai Lama wants to make sure I speak with the current Si Kyung, their term for a prime minister.

Please sit down. Is Tibet ever coming back? Absolutely. Yeah, you believe that? Absolutely. But everything suggests otherwise. No, because you asked me this question here in Bodhgaya, mm-hmm, where Buddha did something impossible at an Enlightenment.

Buddhism is 2500 plus years old; communism is just, what, hundreds of years old? One-party rule is less than a hundred years old. There is no competition between the two. We must have dialogue between the voice with Dalai Lama and Chinese representatives, and Tibetans should be granted genuine autonomy as per Chinese laws within China.

But you know I exist in a political world, and I play hardball. Tibetans, we see China in a different way. Our perspectives are very different. We have lived side by side for thousands of years, so we kind of know them better than anyone in the world.

So hence, we don't fear China. We are not amazed by China. We know exactly what they're doing. Our time will come; our opportunity will come. The Prime Minister's optimism comes from outside the political sphere. He sees this, it seems, as a war of ideas and takes comfort from the longevity of the Buddhist culture.

In a time when the world seems to be in turmoil, a turmoil I've seen firsthand as a journalist in Afghanistan and Iraq and beyond, I have to wonder, can the Dalai Lama's message of hope prevail?
