Why explore the Tibetan healing path?
2008-03-24 01:06:00 Tibetan medicine helps people to grasp the origins and cause of illness. Would you like to discern how you hold illness in your body and mind? Its within your reach to discover the profound healing system within yourself. Would you like to become your own healer?This Tibetan view tells us the physical body is an expression of mental energies produced by the brain. The nature of mental energies changes based on how a person experiences the world and is conditioned to interpret it. So, you live based on reflections of the past.Since your brain reacts based on your senses, your reaction is always slightly behind the event to which you react. Any sense of immediacy is an illusion. You express feelings based on the past. You touch fire, expecting to get burned (or not), then feel. Similarly, you're conditioned to expect illness or discomfort. Hear of morning sickess? Ever watch ...

Tourist video shows riot, flames in Tibetan capital
2008-03-19 22:27:00 Tibetan exile groups maintain at least 80 people were killed by Chinese security forces that day, but Chinese authorities insist they acted with restraint and killed no one. Instead, China says 13 "innocent people" were killed, some brutally burned, by the Tibetan rioters. China's going to have a major problem on it's hands if bodies start showing up. As for China having these riots, I can't think of a country more deserving, other than Iran or Russia, of rioting in the streets over human rights issues. China bans my site in it's filtering policies, so I certainly hope that someone in China does get all the information that's available, instead of what's being fed to them. Many Chinese folks don't even know about the Tiananmen Square massacre. Travis travis@rightwinglunatic.com

According to report, some of the pictures were so shocking that they cannot be shown in this video. Further report says that large numbers of people are dead due to bullet injuries and there number could be in hundreds. However, in much anticipated style, Chinese British Embassy authorities said that there is no news of any such incidence taking place in China and they cannot tell anything by viewing these pictures alone.
