We’re in the van, we’re going back after we demonstrated outside Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford.

It means a lot to me to come here and to protect our lineage.

The main point I was coming here to..

His Holiness and his government are destroying our monasteries. It’s really worse than they did, worse than the Chinese you know?
The Chinese destroyed our monasteries but they didn’t separate the monks. They have already separated our monasteries you know?
Therefore I came here to ask him to do something for the monasteries.

The Dalai Lama, I understand, has refused to enter into any dialog. We’ve sent many letters and petitions and they’ve just been ignored or rejected so we have to make our voice and our case known in this way.

I feel very privileged and honored to be representing all living beings and specially those who are unable to be here, to have a voice, so we’ll shout even louder for them on their behalf.

So we were waiting at the beginning for the Dalai Lama to arrive
and had a very good position during this demonstrations because we were actually right by the place where he arrived in a car and got out and went into the building.

Stop Lying!

You know we just felt, I think all of us just felt a very very powerful experience you know just kind of pleading with him.

Please, just give us freedom to practice our Dharma Protector. And throughout the talk that he was giving we were outside, continuously repeating our two mantras and he could hear us from inside.

Dalai Lama Give, Religious Freedom!

I feel very privileged to be able to come here and help preserve the pure lineage of Je Tsongkhapa. It means a great deal to me. I realize the implication that this has for future generations and I feel very very fortunate to be able to be here today.

Dalai Lama Give, Religious Freedom

We need to support all of the Dorje Shugden practitioners in India who are having a really bad time at the minute and we’re just here to show our support and help the Dalai Lama to change his mind about a few things.

Dalai Lama, Stop Lying!

Stop Lying!

I feel very strongly that…that it’s vital that we get this message through and we hope that the world’s media will take it up and investigate what actually is going on amongst the Tibetans now.

Dalai Lama, Stop Lying!
