exile Tibetan democracy

 Dharamshala: US President Donald Trump has signed The Tibetan Policy and Support Act  2020 into Law, a move that strengthened US policy on Tibet and reaffirmed support to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Central Tibetan Administration. 

CTA President Dr Lobsang Sangay said, "This legislation sends a powerful message of hope and justice to Tibetans inside Tibet. And it bolsters US support for protection of Tibetan people's religious freedom, human and environmental rights, exile Tibetan democracy."

An individual's striving to become whole, access one's core, is yoga or integration.

Kshema is myriad expressions of one's core, in the world - differential benefic manifestations.   

Once, an industrialist wanted me, to visit his home. 

He drove me in his expensive car, as we surveyed his sprawling estate; and arrived at his tucked away villa. 

A uniformed guard greeted us, opened gates. The driveway snaked through well kept gardens -  a gardener tended in the sunshine. We cruised into a plush portico paved with Italian marble. His wife hurried out to greet us, with billowing, blown hair.

The man turned to me, said apologetically, "What to do Swamiji; my prarabdha."
