WHAT IS THE DALAI LAMA BUSY DOING IN INDIA?

Every year, as March approaches, the Dalai Lama clique creates an uproar to “commemorate” the launching of their armed rebellion. What is the 14th Dalai Lama busy doing in India this year?

Busy Being India’s Son

According to a report by Times of India, on January 30th, while in Bangalore, the Dalai Lama again publicly stated, “I am a son of India.” His reasons were very specific: “My mind is filled with Nalanda thinking, my body with Indian rice, Indian beans and Indian pancakes.” People will remember that in March, 2009, the Dalai Lama proclaimed himself to be “a son of India” on several separate occasions, the reasons given being that he lives on Indian rice and India is his spiritual guru. As such, this author pointed out in a previous article out that this claim is disgusting, outrageous, and shameful. Afterwards, a small number of the Dalai Lama’s followers wrote articles defending him, and argued on his behalf the necessity and urgency of being a son of India. But this author revealed that after June 2010, the Dalai Lama and his followers finally realized that this was not a suitable tack, and have not mentioned it since. That is until recently, when the Dalai Lama suddenly resurrected the topic. We must therefore be wary of his intentions.

According to reports from foreign news agencies, on January 26, Indian police seized a car on its way to Dharamsala which was carrying a huge sum of money. The following day, the police searched the monastery of the Seventeenth Karmapa in Dharamsala and arrested one of his aides, returning on January 28 to conduct further questioning. This created strong waves among the exiled Tibetan community. Since January 28 the situation has escalated, with thousands of the Karmapa’s followers holding a demonstration at his home to show their support. Scenes like these have been rare in the several decades the exiled Tibetan community has been living here.

Foreign public opinion is that this incident is not accidental, but rather there are background reasons and several forces at work. Online, netizens have suggested that, “actually, since the Karmapa moved to India, he has constantly been under the custody of security personnel of the “Tibetan government in exile”,” and “there’s no doubt that the Fourteenth Dalai Lama is behind this, aimed at eliminating the potential threat of the Karmapa.”

After the event, the Dalai Lama found himself in a difficult position not only having to submit himself to the will of the Indian authorities but also having to face nervous exiled Tibetans, as well as attempting to clear his own name of any involvement. As such, he seemed to be at a loss, and was left making self-contradictory statements.

According to a report by Norway’s Voice of Tibet, when the Dalai Lama met with Indian reporters on February 7, he was trying hard to play down the affair, saying “there’s no need to take it so seriously; it won’t have any effect or impact on the long-term relationship between India and the Tibetan exile community.” This illustrates that the relationship with India is the Dalai Lama’s foremost concern. The Dalai Lama again shamelessly reverted to the topic of being “a son of India,” which simply showed Indians that as India’s son the Dalai Lama will not do anything which would harm his “father,” and that the Indians should not take anything he says to placate other Tibetans in exile too seriously. However, we will have to wait to see if the Dalai Lama can swiftly repair the rift that has opened up between the “son of India” and India itself.

This author has repeatedly pointed out that nobody from Indian society, neither official nor civilian, has yet been willing to acknowledge the Dalai Lama as a son of India. Even more pathetic is that no one from the Dalai Lama’s own clique has been willing to echo his claims of being “a son of India” or “a descendant of India.” On this issue, the Dalai Lama stands alone and isolated.

Busy Selling Out Tibet to India

On January 23, 2007, the Dalai Lama told the Indian media that in 1914 the governments of both Tibet and British India recognized the McMahon Line, and that based on the treaty signed at that time, Arunachal Pradesh is a part of India. Since then he has repeatedly made traitorous statements claiming that southern areas of China’s Tibet belong to India.

However, it seems the Dalai Lama has decided that peddling parts of Tibet is not enough and he is now trying to sell out the whole of Tibet. According to a report by Tibet Post International, at a meeting in Goa on February 7, the Dalai Lama claimed that the Tibet issue is actually India’s issue. On February 10, it was reported in Times of India that at a meeting of a “Tibetan civic organization” in Rajasthan, the Dalai Lama wantonly flattered India by claiming that India is ahead of China in the areas of freedom, morals, and civil rights. He then announced that due to India and Tibet’s close relationship, and because Tibetan Buddhism came from India, spreading along the border from Ladak to Arunachal Pradesh, “India has greater reason than China to claim sovereignty over Tibet.” This clearly demonstrates the Dalai Lama’s willingness to sell out his country in order to continue receiving exile from India.

China and India are important neighbors, and it is the hope of the peoples of both countries that they may develop peaceful and friendly relations. Territorial disputes regarding their borders do exist between China and India, but India accepts that Tibet is a part of the territory of the People’s Republic of China, and it has never made a territorial claim over the whole of Tibet. The reason the Dalai Lama has offered Tibet’s sovereignty to India as a gift is not simply to pander to India, but more obviously to sow the seeds of discord between China and India, and cajole India into helping him. Who would dare call such a conniving person their “son”?

Busy Dreaming of Overthrowing the Communist Party of China

The world’s various forces conspiring to split China, despite their frequent in-fighting in pursuit of their own interests, are perfectly clear on one thing: to split China they must first overthrow the CPC. According to a report by the mouthpiece of one of these forces, Radio Free Asia, on January 8, the Dalai Lama met and talked with a notorious foreign reactionary in Delhi. This reactionary stated that his life’s goal is “to instigate independence in all China’s provinces,” and, if he loses his life, to be reincarnated so he can come back and continue to oppose the Party. The Dalai Lama was thrilled at this and said encouragingly, “Perhaps when you are reincarnated the Communist Party you are opposing will no longer exist. Perhaps I shall outlive the Communist Party.”

In fact, the Dalai Lama has harbored this dream for some time. As far back as 1989, when dramatic changes were taking place in the Soviet Union, the Dalai Lama was excitable and presumed that the scenes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe would quickly appear in China, which the Western media reported on. He has predicted on multiple occasions that, “Communism, having collapsed in Eastern Europe, will inevitably do so in China,” and stated that, “the facts of the Soviet Union has put Tibetan independence at a new juncture and given it new hope,” and “the CPC’s days in power are numbered.”

He first predicted that, “change will definitely happen in China within five to ten years, and the dream of Tibetan independence is achievable.” He then quickly shortened this period, saying, “Tibet will definitely become an independent country within three years,” and finally gave a guarantee that, “the disintegration of the Soviet Union will intensify the Tibetan people’s belief in Tibetan independence, and in as little as a year, great changes will take place in China.”

Based on this judgment, the Dalai Lama brazenly announced that he would, “withdraw from the Five-Point Peace Plan and no longer negotiate with the Chinese government.” Nevertheless, things quickly changed and in only 1991, the same Dalai Lama invited the Chinese government to negotiate with him. He has therefore quietly reverted from “Tibetan Independence” to “the middle way.”

Recently, a number of countries in North Africa and west Asia have experienced political unrest, and the Dalai Lama’s intentions have again changed. On February 18, while in Bombay, the Dalai Lama said that the political movements in Egypt and Tunisia would bring “many changes” to the world, “more and more Chinese people were beginning to support the Tibetan cause,” and “the issue of Tibet can definitely be resolved in the remaining years of my life.”

According to a report by Norway’s Voice of Tibet, prior to this, while in Rajasthan on February 9, the Dalai Lama incited a group of young Tibetans saying, “About 99% of Tibetans, including young people over the age of ten, participated in the Tibet incident in 2008, which indicates a great transition.” This statement clearly revealed the Dalai Lama’s approval and desire for the bloody atrocities of murder and arson that took place in Lhasa during the March 14 incident. 

In the 50 years since he launched the failed armed uprising and fled the country into exile in 1959, the Dalai Lama has, on countless occasions, predicted the collapse of the CPC, the breakup of China, and Tibetan independence. However, history always runs counter to his predictions. Here the author would like to make a prediction of his own: if the Dalai Lama does not alter his separatist stance, the longer he lives, the more he will suffer from the pain and embarrassment of his mistaken predictions.
