Do your research on this. The letter was NOT SIGNED BY HIM AS PRESIDENT OF THE US. Obama is reminding the DL not US did not recognize Tibet as an independent SOVEREIGN nation. SOVEREIGN IS YOUR CHOSEN WORD. No country has ever recognised Tibet. Read "Tibet sovereignty debate" in wikipedia. The memento – President Roosevelt’s letter to the Dalai Lama in 1942.

He was programmed to think that he is the reincarnation of Buddha. Buddhism is a false religion, is wonderful as a philosophy and a creation of the human mind,but it does not have any redemptive value. In buddhism one thinks that they can avoid human suffering by detachment, and yet as we can see their prophets are fully entangled in very fiber of this world: they have political ideas, they don't like wars but yet speak an internationalist/communist language and love the idea of globalization which stands against the national identities and its purposes can be only achieved through wars, economical enslavement and revolutions) they take the form of this world to be cool and be liked and consulted by the leaders of this world. Thy make you feel like a looser when you suffer and instill in you the idea that you are predestined to suffer because of your bad karma and they sell you a false remedy: avoid the suffering. Cool. Fall into a self-hypnosis where you put pull your hair with your hand and save yourself and go straight to ...nothingness. Well. When you are being brought up since you are a small child and programmed to thinking that you are somebody else, like Dalailama was, the detachment is kind of a second nature. One cannot love and be compassionate when detached, when your goal is to avoid---this is a contradiction in terms is the kind of paradox that only a compromised vision about the human nature can reconcile. Buddhism is a man-made philosophy, with a rich cultural background,very interesting to be explored as such. When it pretends to be a religion, it fails because it contradicts the very human nature, which is fallen and aspires for Eternity in God. From this aspiration arises the suffering. Not nothingness, as the buddhism states, but God. If there were for nothingness then yes, one can die emotionally right now and aspire to be one with nothing. The human being aspires to be One with the Eternal God, Who is love. Christ is the only redemption and Restoration of the fallen human beings to their primal happiness with God. The wonderment of the Christian Religion is that it does not promise you an illusory future Paradise. It shows you that this state is achievable here and now, it actually starts in this world, although it does not have anything to do with the very fiber of this world, which is old and in free falling. Therefore Christians are not politicians. They don't have the illusion of making a better world, through old, degenerated means, they start with their conscious, not with so globalistic, empty concepts like The World, The New era,The Absolute etc. Dalailama is a false prophet.

Seems physically impossible. It’s weird that while dancing with the Dalai Lama, you can step on the Chinese’ toes (thousands of miles away from the waltz). Seems physically impossible.
