Taesiong ScriptureThose who guard our country and protect Taiwan are respected by all in Heaven. Propitiousness, too, shall follow. All evils shall abandon afar. Innumerable spirits shall protect and bless them. All the doings of righteous ways of democracy, upheld by the Origin Destiny’s Heavenly Principles, shall achieve the Great Bodhisattva of Taiwan as the fruit. Such is cultivating action, is truthful action; is a Shepherd who truly achieve the great vows.
Newsflash
Lobsang Sangay, a 43-year-old Harvard scholar, took office yesterday as head of the Tibetan government-in-exile, vowing to free his homeland from Chinese “colonialism.” After being sworn in at a colorful ceremony in the Indian hill town of Dharamsala, Sangay warned China that the Tibet movement was “here to stay” and would only grow stronger in the waning years of the Dalai Lama. In an historic shift from the dominance of Tibetan politics by religious figures, the new prime minister, who has never set foot in Tibet, is assuming the political leadership role relinquished by the 76-year-old Dalai Lama in May. |
