Dalai Lama Sends Love to K-State through Visiting Tibetan Monks; Gathering to Pray for Japan

Pictures and Video of the Sand Mandala do not do it justice. Nevertheless, here are some on the day that a couple hundred Kansas State University students /staff /faculty gathered to support K-State's Japanese students and all those affected. Over $2000 was donated and
the Monks prayed.
 BTW there are many many Pray for Japan Videos on youtube. Its a Global thing that we feel more connected suddenly. Thank you, Radiation.

every human, every Man who is a Man, should be walking about as if a monk.

This is not a time to be juvenile, pleasure-seeking, self-loving.

If you are Real 

If i am a Real man

Am i not through sorrow become wise?

shall we not be absorbing the sorrow of others 

shall i keep practicing my [oscar pulitzer acceptance] speech or

is it time to man up and see

What is About.

Are you fiddling on the titanic

for the enlightenment and encouragement of others

or are you just fiddling with yourself?

Compare White House Treatment of Dalai Lama and the Chinese President

China, currently being feted by the white house, does not want President Obama to be nice to the Dalai Lama. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35480038/ns/world_news-asia-pacific/
  excerpt:   BEIJING — China said President Barack Obama's meeting with the Dalai Lama "seriously harms U.S.-China relations," but the way the two countries have handled the White House chat indicates instead that both would rather avoid a major crisis. Vice Foreign Minister Cui Tiankai summoned U.S. Ambassador Jon Huntsman on Friday to protest Thursday's meeting...
"The behavior of the U.S. side seriously interferes in China's internal politics, seriously hurts the national feelings of the Chinese people and seriously harms U.S.-China relations," a Foreign Ministry statement said, quoting spokesman Ma Zhaoxu...

Human Rights <  Money

excerpt 2: "For its part, the White House gave the Dalai Lama relatively low-profile treatment, holding the meeting in the Map Room, a less prominent venue than the Oval Office.There was no welcome fanfare, and Obama made no public comments. The White House banned journalists and distributed a single photo of the two leaders... Obama declined to see the Dalai Lama during his Washington stay in October because it would have come before the president's China visit in November."

I must compare the way the Dali Lama was rushed out the back door of the white house past some trash (seriously, can you IMAGINE the current Chinese delegation being photographed here!?) and the pomp and lavish, or slavish sumptuousness currently being displayed for Hu.
