 | Tibet: The Truth (A Political History) The West is trying to demonize China. Why? To ensure an upper-handed position economically, politically, and socially. I HAVE MADE THIS AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD: http://www.sendspace.com/file/icmeed http://www.megaupload.com/?d=D0NFT4QI Too many harbor strong opinions about Tibet, yet know nothing more than the few slogans offered by the mass-media outlets. The media screams: "They killed innocent monks!" - but those "innocent" monks and other young hooligans killed innocent Chinese before a single shot was fired on them. "The Chinese are oppressive" - do you consider freeing over 95% of Tibetans from slavery, building a state of the art infrastructure, and a new economy oppressive? "The Chinese suppress Tibetan Buddhism" - then why have the Chinese spent a fortune restoring ancient monasteries and places of religious significance? China doesn't SPIN NEWS like we do. Their silence is too often mistaken as admission of guilt. Don't be another uninformed drone. Do everyone a favor and learn truths before forming opinions. Here's to Peace & Harmony! The 2008 Beijing Olympics deserve support! http://www.monarex.com/chinacol.htm credits: Chris D. Nebe JJ Osbun Mark Grabianowski *** |
 | Tibet, China - NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC documentary GENUINE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC DOCUMENTARY Please contact National Geographic for full length version of the documentary. Was Tibetan theocracy before Dalai Lama fled China really a Shangri-La?Or rather, lies, serfdom, torture, mutilation and paradise only for the noble class? To contradict the common Tibet image in the imagination of Westerners, this National Geographic documentary revealed the true face of Tibet before Tibet returned to Chinese rule again --- a land where most residents were awaiting liberation from the dark age of serfdom, which of course shook the interests of land possessers and noble class, who finally initiated the 1959 revolt against Beijing in reaction to the drastic agricultural reform. |

 | Tibet, China -- Ownership of Tibet, Part One #001 Tibet is located in southwest China. The ancestors of the Tibetan race who lived there struck up links with the Han in the Central Plains long before the Christian era. Later, over a long period of years, the numerous tribes scattered on the Tibet Plateau became unified to form the present Tibetan race. By the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Tibetans and Hans had, through marriage between royal families and meetings leading to alliances, cemented political and kinship ties of unity and political friendship and formed close economic and cultural relations, laying a solid foundation for the ultimate founding of a unified nation. In Lhasa, the capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region, the statue of the Tang Princess Wen Cheng, who married the Tubo tsampo, king of Tibet, in 641, is still enshrined and worshiped in the Potala Palace. The Tang-Tubo Alliance Monument marking the meeting for this purpose between Tang and Tubo erected in 823 still stands in the square in front of the Jokhang Monastery. The monument inscription reads in part, "The two sovereigns, uncle and nephew, having come to agreement that their territories be united as one, have signed this alliance of great peace to last for eternity! May God and humanity bear witness thereto so that it may be praised from generation to generation." In the mid-13th century, Tibet was officially incorporated into the territory of China's Yuan Dynasty. Since then, although China experienced several dynastic changes, Tibet has remained under the jurisdiction of the central government of China. |
 | Tibet, China -- Ownership of Tibet, Part Three #003 Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) In 1368 the Ming Dynasty replaced the Yuan Dynasty in China, and inherited the right to rule Tibet. The central government of the Ming Dynasty retained most of the titles and ranks of official positions instituted during the Yuan Dynasty. In the central and eastern parts of present-day Tibet, the Dbus-Gtsang Itinerant High Commandery and the Mdo-khams Itinerant High Commandery were set up respectively. Equivalent to provincial-level military organs, they operated under the Shaanxi Itinerant High Commandery and, at the same time, handled civil administration. In Ngari in west Tibet, the E-Li-Si Army-Civilian Marshal Office was instituted. Leading officials of these organs were all appointed by the central government. The third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Chengzu (reigned 1403-1424) saw the advantage of combined Buddhist religious and political power in Tibet and rivalry between sects occupying different areas. So he conferred honorific titles on religious leaders in various parts of Tibet such as the "prince of Dharma," "prince" and "national master in Tantrism." Succession to such princeship needed the approval of the emperor, who would send an envoy to confer the official title on each new prince. Only then could the new prince assume his role. According to the stipulations of the Ming court, the prince had to dispatch his envoy or come in person to the capital to participate in the New Year's Day celebration each year and present his memorial of congratulation and tribute. The Ming court had detailed stipulations that limited the dates for presenting tributes, the number of personnel allowed in the capital, the route to be taken, and also provisions to be supplied by local authorities along the route. The tablets wishing longevity to the emperors before which the prayers had to prostrate themselves are still kept in some of the monasteries in Tibet. The Dalai Lama and the Bainqen Lama are the two leading incarnation hierarchies of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism. The Gelug Sect rose during the Ming Dynasty, and the 3rd Dalai Lama was the abbot of one of the sect's monasteries. The central government of the Ming Dynasty showed him special favor by allowing him to pay tribute. In 1587 he was granted the title of Dorjichang or Vajradhara Dalai Lama. Any official of the Tibetan local government who offended the law was punished by the central government. |
