Free Tibet
The oldest on Earth, after Aboriginal culture, is the 20 000 years old culture of Tibet. Through its religious practice, this fierce and bold people became a society of a highly developed conscience.
In their attitude towards matter and soul, Bon, Dzogchen and Buddhism represented a common basis. This effected in a humble, but sufficient in the existing conditions, financial success. The unoppressed growth of this exceptional enclave, situated in the heart of the Himalai Mountains, was brutally terminated by Chinese occupation and extermination of Tibetan monks. From our point of view, i.e. the world’s point of view, this means the beginning of a war of conscience.
We intend to overcome the paranoia of borders and any kind of violence.
“Protect man, protect human beings”
The Tibetan people, their culture and the teachings of Buddha can survive for the benefit of all feeling beings only with the help of Western people.
It would be good if the society could help the noble idea of the FREE TIBET action. Therefore, we plead all persons and institutions, that could help this action in a direct and way, for support.
After all, we can all feel, and therefore should care about the safety, hapiness and love of other people.

Das Wenige, was in …
Das Wenige, was in Tibet verblieben ist, muss geschützt werden, und es müssen Anstrengungen unternommen werden, um die Umwelt wieder in ihr Gleichgewicht zu bringen.
Mein Traum ist es, die gesamte tibetische Hochebene in ein freies Sanktuarium umzuwandeln, in dem Menschen und Natur in Frieden und Harmonie miteinander leben können… Tibet könnte in der Tat ein kreatives Zentrum für die Förderung und Entwicklung des Friedens werden.

If China is so bad …
If China is so bad for Tibet why has the Tibetan population tripled over the last 50 years from 1.2 million in 1950 to 5 million now? GDP of Tibet today is thirty times that of 1950, workers in Tibet have the second highest wages in China. All secular education in Tibet was created after the revolution.Infant mortality has dropped from 43% in 1950 to 0.661% in 2000, life expectancy has risen from 35.5 years in 1950 to 70 in 2000. I’m not giving you fake facts, go to wikipedia and search up Tibet
