e o silêncio se fez de vento no varal  – O Outro Lado

Quando rasguei o nome no peito…Tirei do ventre a palavra voo e chorei pelos números de nomes que voaram entrelaçados dentro da ausência vivida. Nem era dia especial e o silêncio se fez de vento no varal e as esperas aconteciam e a gente sabia que não ia chegar. Algumas partidas acontecem como voos de pássaros ou como pouso em um dia de silêncio.

Vești din paradis – ore de drum

Moissac, 2024

Contează mult felul în care sunt întâmpinată într-un loc cu desăvârșire nou și, poposind pe traseul UNESCO al rutei de Compostela, la abația benedictină Saint-Pierre de la Moissac, călătorul e primit cu drag, călduros și amical, cu grija și preocuparea de a-i asigura condiții de vizită ireproșabile. Dar, aflând că pelerinii se opreau aici încă din secolul 7, de la prima atestare a așezământului, nu mă mir deloc de calitatea dobândită, vreme de secole, în arta ospeției. Cea mai recentă statistică anuală atestă că, în 2019, aici au poposit 4.258 de pelerini.

Întemeierea bisericii a fost hotărâtă de Clovis după o victorie asupra vizigoților, și, pe parcurs, lăcașul a beneficiat de protecții regale, princiare și celeste.

Vastei abații i-am dedicat o după-amiază și următoarea dimineață, ca să pot privi după placul inimii monumentele celor două secțiuni, una gratuită, biserica și complexul pe dinafară, și una cu plată, cea în care pătrundem acum…

The story of one of Buddhism’s most revered figures, long missing, explained — Radio Free Asia

What happened to the Panchen Lama?

On May 14, 1995, the exiled Dalai Lama recognized Gedhun Choekyi Nyima as  the Panchen Lama, the 11th reincarnation of his predecessor.

This angered Chinese authorities, who rejected the choice.

Three days later the boy, his family and his teacher were abducted. They have remained missing ever since.

For over 29 years, Tibetans, global leaders, and rights groups have called on the Chinese government to reveal their whereabouts, to no avail.

Who is the Beijing-appointed Panchen Lama?

Shortly after the abduction of the Dalai Lama-appointed Panchen Lama, Beijing installed another boy, Gyaltsen (in Chinese, Gyaincain) Norbu, as their own candidate in his place.

However, the Chinese government-appointed Panchen Lama remains unpopular with Tibetans both in exile and at home and is perceived as a “political tool” for Beijing.

Ordinary Tibetans and monks in monasteries traditionally loyal to the Dalai Lama have been reluctant to acknowledge or receive him, and during his visits to Tibet, Beijing has in the past handed out small monetary incentives for people who receive his blessing.

Significance of the Panchen Lama’s role

China’s appointment of Gyaincain Norbu as Panchen Lama underscores Beijing’s attempts to interfere in the selection of the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama when he passes, and gain control and legitimacy among Tibetans, both inside Tibet and in exile, say experts.

The move is also seen as China’s attempts to acquire more influence over Buddhism not only inside occasionally restive Tibet but throughout the Himalayan region. Beijing has increasingly looked to leverage religion as a soft power diplomacy tool across various Buddhist nations.

In 2007, the Chinese government decreed that China would begin overseeing the recognition of all reincarnate Tibetan lamas, or “Living Buddhas,” including the next incarnation of the Dalai Lama, for which China plans to use its own Beijing-appointed Panchen Lama to sign off on.

शाश्वत बसंत / Eternal Spring – Kaushal Kishore

 

पुरानी पत्तियों के मुरझाने से 

पहले ही निकल आती हैं

कुछ नई पत्तियां रोज 

मेरी आकांक्षाओं के वृक्ष पर…

जहां हमेशा ही 

छाई रहती है बसंत ऋतु, 

लेकिन आता नहीं है कभी 

यहां पतझड़…

🌱 🌱 🌱 🌱 🌱 🌱

On the tree of my aspirations, 

each day anew,

Fresh leaves sprout before 

the old turn to rue…

Where spring’s eternal, 

its reign so true,

And the autumn remains 

but a distant hue…

.

–Kaushal Kishore
