Dalai Lama Mein Wegweiser zum Glück. Was soll man da sagen :D... Ich finde den Dalai Lama ganz toll. Würde es keinen Islam geben (was mich offen gesagt einfach mehr überzeugt), dann wäre ich definitiv eine Buddhistin :D Die Weisheiten des Dalai Lama sind sehr hilfreich und es gibt keinen freundlicheren Menschen !!! Falls ihr lange Bus- oder Bahnreisen habt lest euch das hier durch und versucht die "Tipps" umzusetzen. Ich finde das hilft und ist besser als "Stöpsel im Ohr+ Techno" ^^

In 1959 he and 100,000 followers fled the country following a failed revolt against the Communist show more Chinese forces that had occupied Tibet for almost a decade. Since that time, the Dalai Lama has met with numerous world leaders and U. N. officials in a tireless effort to free his country and preserve the traditional Tibetan way of life.
