Help Free Tibet Now!
There are a great many things wrong in Our World and as many of you may have heard Tibet is in trouble, while this is nothing new I was never more aware of the cruelty and injustice that has been done to these people, NO one should have to live in torment over their heritage and beliefs. And in light of this fact we have committed ourselves to creating this page, in order to get the news out there. We recently experienced the making of a Sand Mandala at our church; it was so moving and very unique spritiual & enlightening experience we have ever had. When we heard of their struggle to be a free nation. We just could not stand by a watch these people be literally wiped off the face of the Earth. Please read what information we have here and go to the Links we have posted here, read what they say about this dreadful situation. GIVE your support! Do what you can to help bring Tibet it's freedom. We also posted some pictures of the Monks that were here. And of their beautiful Tibet!

Current News! from His Holiness The Dalai Lama
A little history about His Holiness The Dalai Lama
This is His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
His name at birth was: Tenzin Gyatso
He was born on 6 July 1935, to a farming family, in a small hamlet located in Taktser, Amdo, northeastern Tibet. At the age of two the child, who was named Lhamo Dhondup at that time was recognized as the reincarnation of the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso. The Dalai Lamas are believed to be manifestations of Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig, the Bodhisattva of Compassion and patron saint of Tibet. Bodhisattvas are enlightened beings who have postponed their own nirvana and chosen to take rebirth in order to serve humanity.
Birth place of His Holiness The Dalai Lama- Gyantse
Beautiful landscape.

Tibetans need our help... 
Each grain of sand is gently placed in it's proper place.
With care and reverence and prayer. By the time it is done it is days later and no sleep for the Monks who specialize in this ancient art form.
Many levels of sand intricate detail is put into each mandala.
As well as many prayers in each grain of sand.
Truly a labor of love and peace.
Holy Temple- Gathering Hall where all the monks come to pray.
Orange Manjushri
Stands for the highest Enlightment- aspects of transcendental wisdom which should be used to free oneself from karmic bondages (his symbols: book and sword). He is also the main patron of astrology and medicine and an emanation of the water element. The snow-lion, on which he rides, symbolizes the overcoming of the ego.
The Tibetan National Flag was introduced
in 1912 by the 13th Dalai Lama.
All the elements of the flag of the Tibetan nation have deep symbolic significance: The glorious snow mountain in the center symbolises the land of the great nation of Tibet. Across the dark blue sky the six emminating red rays of light symbolize the original tribes of ancient Tibet (Se, Mu, Dong, Tong, Dru and Ra). The alternating red, representing the people, and the blue of the sky represent the unrelenting virtuious deeds of the dark blue and red guardian protectors of Tibetan Buddha Dharma. At the tip of the snow mountain, the sun’s brilliant rays shine in all directions, representing the impartial enjoyment of freedom, prosperity and happiness by all beings in the land of Tibet. On the slopes of the mountain a pair of snow lions with turquoise manes represent fearless victory; the accomplishment of a unified spiritual and secular life. The snow lions hold above them the flaming triple gem, representing the Tibetan people’s reverence toward the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. The surrounding yellow border represents the the purified gold- like teachings of the Buddha which spread and flourish in all directions and in all times.
So here is just a little of the Tibetan people's culture history and beliefs. Don't you think they are worth preserving. They are a people of love and tranquility and the embodiment of true "Peace and Compassion". Let's do our part in helping where we can. Thank you!
