The Dalai Lama in TIME and Newsweek; Sri Lanka Silent on Tibet

By Tricycle

Tricycle contributing editor Pico Iyer writes about the Dalai Lama in TIME. And excerpts of the Dalai Lama’s interview with Newsweek.

Is Sri Lanka silent on Tibet because they get the arms to fight their civil war from China? The island nation, though “constitutionally bound” to protect Buddhism, has been silent because they are “heavily indebted” to China. But who isn’t?

Tricycle is the leading independent journal of Buddhism in the West, where it continues to be the most inclusive and widely read vehicle for the dissemination of Buddhist views and values. By remaining unaffiliated with any particular teacher, sect, or lineage, Tricycle provides a public forum for exploring Buddhism and its dialogue with the broader culture.
