STOP 🛑 The Violence!!!

Filosofa's Word

A child comes home from school, says he’s going to beat up the kid who called him a name.  The mother sits down with the child, offers him a piece of cheese and a juice box and explains to him that there are other, better ways to resolve his differences with the other child.  She talks about finding the reason why the other kid called him a name, talks about him sitting down with the other kid and maybe a mediator, to talk about their differences.  And she explains to him that violence is never the answer, that violence will only lead to more violence and that eventually someone will get hurt, perhaps badly.

Okay, sure … that’s the fairy tale scenario, but believe it or not, similar scenarios are happening as we speak around the nation today and every day.  But … among the so-called adults in the room?

Del tiempo asimilé que cada uno de sus pedazos es un lapso, un espacio…

Silent Songs of Sonsnow

He spoke for an hour and encouraged us to be committed and dedicated as always. He has gone through all the 22 resolutions we have adopted upon 9 agendas and advised us to put our effort into preserving and protecting the rich Tibetan language.

Tibetan Youth Congress was formally established at a conference of Tibetan Youths in Dharamshala on 7th October 1970 attended by 315 delegates from various Tibetan Settlements in India and Nepal. His Holiness graced thrice in a week-long meeting and advised the attendees, “Despite facing different difficulties and challenges, establish your will and determination like a mountain.”
