Dalai Lama's India links in difficult dilemma

Mr. Yiduo on June 21, 2010 published an article condemning the 14th Dalai Lama's ridiculing links with India as he insists on being a "son of India". Quite different from before, up to now, we haven't got any response from the Dalai side and it is obvious that the "son of India" has flung into a dilemma.

According to the Indo-Asian News Service (IANS), it was on March 31, 2009 that the Dalai Lama claimed himself a "son of India" for the first time when attending a press conference in New Delhi, capital of India. "I call myself a son of India," the 14th Dalai Lama said.

Since then the Dalai Lama has repeatedly claimed himself a "son of India". This year, on a so-called "International Buddhism Conference", the Dalai Lama avowed himself a "son of India". "There is no doubt that I am a son of India. In the past 50 years, I lived on the Indian food and the autonomy here offers me many opportunities, so I regard myself a son of India and feel proud of this fact. Though my parents are Tibetan and I am a Tibetan in appearance, I stand here mentally to be an Indian. I am ready to do everything for my spiritual teacher, India," said the Dalai Lama on January 16, 2010.

Since the Dalai Lama wants to be a "son of India", he has to take some practical actions. In the memo he submitted to former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in April 1986, he declaredly called southern Tibet "Arunachal Pradesh". In 1999, when giving an interview to the China Times of Taiwan, he said: "I have no duty when visiting the Ladakh and Mon Tawang because they are the territory of India."

In recent years, the Dalai Lama has many times claimed that the territory in southern Tibet "belongs to India".

In fact, the area had been administrated by local Tibetan government since ancient times and was the birthplace of the 6th Dalai Lama. And, there is also a monastery built by the 5th Dalai Lama. Definitely to say, the illegal "Arunachal Pradesh" was never admitted and it is a part of Chinese territory.

The Dalai Lama has taken many practical actions, but the result is really ridiculous.

From the Indian side, the Dalai Lama didn't get any praise after he claimed himself a "son of India" and all the Tibetan people in the Tibet Autonomous Region got to know his true purpose of betraying the ultimate interests of Tibetans to obtain his own interests in his limited lifetime.

From the Chinese side, the Chinese including ethnic Tibetan people hold that since the Dalai Lama is mentally an Indian, he is not qualified to be a representative of all the Tibetans and of course has no rights to stand for interests of Tibetans.

Both of the two sides have thrown away this betrayer as the whole world knows that in order to satisfy his "father" India, the Dalai Lama can abandon the basic interests of Tibet by giving up his ancestor's hometown and bending his knees to be a "son of India".

The Dalai Lama, "son of India" is facing a difficult dilemma as both sides have lost patience for his random talk.

At last, we just want to tell him not to do anything more under the guise of "representative of interests of all the Tibetans" and stop gossip about China's interior affairs. He might try to set a hand in India's interior affairs, but that will depend on whether India accepts him as a "son".
