Theos-Talk Archives (May 2008 Message tt00540)

Sanat:

Thank you for making me type the previous :-)
I just sent an email to the Dalai Lama, since he said
he was concerned about his succeeding, I made this
little verse:

One lives in the low-lands of never
One suffers the mid-lands of fever
One is in the high-lands of ever
To practice the out-land clever
 
In this verse I can feel the mission of the Dalai
Lama, his loss of Tibet, his forced ( by himself of
course ) preaching the Perfect Way and last but not
least to keep Buddhism alive.
