Hi, Peter Here, its sad, the lecture is fine yet!
The people asking questions have no microphone,
therefore hard to maintain details. Chinese care little for other cultures and therefore would rather have Tibetans a tourist sight like the Hawaiians.
To keep the Tibetans on reserve like American Indians Cherokees. Chinese are not responsible for Tibetian Buddhism, this came from INDIA Padmasambhava, is only one of many, that brought Buddhism to Tibet.The Han Dynasty kept Buddhism within the gates of the royal court, it was not widely promoted,they had many other pressing issues. Yes The Mongols! what about the Manchu 1661 to 1722 KANG-HSI! Good Lecture. Todays Chinese wish to pick the Lama just as they pick the Chinese Catholic Cardinal.Thank you I enjoyed this lecture.
