The Dalai Lama's travel route in 2011 [Photo/China Tibet Online]

Editor's note: "I am a simple Buddhist monk — no more, no less," the 14th Dalai Lama said in an interview with The New York Times. Is he telling the truth? In the past days of 2011, he has visited many countries in the name of Buddha. Wherever he goes, he attempted to meet political figures by all means. Although his disguise has not been disclosed by all the people around the world, men with insights have already recognized the true face of the 14th Dalai Lama, and many countries ignored him and would not welcome him at all!

Brazil: Absence of any Brazilian officials

The Dalai Lama's three-day visit to Sao Paulo was notable for the conspicuous absence of any Brazilian officials.

Brazil counts China as its top trading partner: "Exchanges between the two countries have soared more than 2,300 percent in the past decade, and last year topped 56.4 billion dollars."

Trade between China and Brazil is mainly focused on agriculture, industry and energy.

South Africa: Visa annoyance

The Dalai Lama cancelled a trip to South Africa on Oct. 5, 2011 after Pretoria failed to grant him a visa.

South Africa had previously denied the Dalai Lama a visa in 2009.

The cancellation came after Tutu accused Zuma's government of foot-dragging over the visa application for the week-long trip.

Europe: The horror of Harrer

Heinrich Harrer, the Dalai Lama's teacher for seven years, sent to Tibet by Hitler in 1938, is a member of the Nazi Party. After Harrer's death in 2006, the Dalai Lama stood out and spoke for Harrer, " He is the first teacher who introduced me to the western world and modernization."

What's more, the Dalai Lama publicly declared that Nazi's massacre the Jewish people is "the Jewish people's retribution of previous life."

Japan: Good friend of the Dalai Lama: Shoko Asahara

The Dalai Lama granted several audiences to, and received a donation of 0.1 bln Japanese Yen from Shoko Asahara, leader of the Aum Supreme Truth Cult of Japan, and spreader of sarin gas in the Tokyo subway.

Shoko Asahara was sentenced to death by the Tokyo Court, which made the Dalai Lama in an awkward position for a time. According to the Focus, a news weekly in Germany, "without the support of the Dalai Lama, Shoko Asahara will never build the Aum Cult, which is an evil cult and disposed by the Japanese government." 

West media: The Dalai Lama's myth crashed

Not so "zen": the hidden side of the Dalai Lama, is a book from France this summer which has caused the most tremendous impact on people's traditional ideas.

According to a book review from the magazine Contemporary Value, what Vivas has destroyed is an idol who should not be doubted in France, or even in the western world. 

To break the western media's consistency to the Dalai Lama

"But anyhow, the consistency to the Dalai Lama has already been broken", said Vivas. "I will spare no efforts on fight with the Dalai Lama and unmask his true face.

To point out he is a political figure in the first place, a man who dreams to build a thearchy kingdom and to recover his rule. What he preserves is sharply different or even contradictory with the ideas in the western world. "

Vivas believes his book will gradually change people's attitudes toward the Dalai Lama, and cause profounding influence to the public opinion in the western world. Actually, this is the reason why his book has gained so much attention in the western world.
