達賴喇嘛出席傳記揭幕并為四名被槍決藏人祈福
【挪威西藏之聲10月26日報導】西藏政教領袖達賴喇嘛今天（26日）出席由印度北部達蘭薩拉諾布林卡西藏文化保護中心舉行的傳記新書《十四世達賴喇嘛政教業績》揭幕儀式，并在儀式上為上周被中共槍決的四名藏人表達沉痛哀悼的同時，進行了祈禱。
藏傳佛教噶舉派法王第十七世噶瑪巴仁波切和西藏苯波教教主米林赤增仁波切為首的各教派高僧，西藏人民議會副議長嘉日卓瑪為首的議員、西藏流亡政府首席部長桑東任波切為首的官員等出席了今天的達賴喇嘛傳記上部揭幕儀式。
西藏政教領袖達賴喇嘛在上千名僧俗民眾的迎請下，於今早9點半正式在諾布林卡寺院殿堂中央寶座上入座。在儀式上，第102任甘丹赤巴（甘丹寺座主）圖登尼瑪隆多丹增諾布仁波切坐床後首次以“甘丹赤巴”名義拜見達賴喇嘛，同時還接受了高僧大德為主敬獻的曼扎三寶。
第十七世噶瑪巴仁波切碎後為共有六冊的傳記書籍《十四世達賴喇嘛政教業績》（上部）進行了揭幕，之後為傳記撰寫工作人員頒發了獎品。
西藏政教領袖達賴喇嘛在儀式上開示演說時，特別向新任甘丹赤仁波切表達祝賀，并指出，達賴喇嘛本人也曾從這位來自拉達克的德高望重的仁波切處接受過《甘珠爾》，以及龍樹菩薩等印度佛教大師經典著作的授課。達賴喇嘛對仁波切畢生為佛法事業所作出的貢獻給予高度贊賞，并祈願已是高齡的仁波切健康長壽，繼續將佛法發揚光大。
達賴喇嘛還對四名參與去年示威的藏人在上周二（20日）被中共執行槍決，表達了沉痛哀悼和遺憾。達賴喇嘛說，(錄音)據說上周，四名藏人在拉薩被槍決，他們都是些年輕人，這是令人極度心痛的。我們在這裡只能為他們祈禱，為離開人世的他們，也為他們的家人祈禱。
達賴喇嘛強調，不僅藏人，近來在新疆參加示威的部分維吾爾人也被中共當局判處死刑，另外在伊拉克因爆炸事件也有上百人死亡，因此希望大家通過念誦祈福經，要為所有遭遇不測的有情眾生進行祈願。達賴喇嘛最後向撰寫達賴喇嘛傳記的負責人和工作人員表達了感謝。
諾布林卡西藏文化保護中心負責人，西藏流亡政府前任部長格桑益西在儀式上介紹了該中心自建立以來，為保護和發揚西藏獨特的傳統文化和手工藝、以及在流亡社區培養人才，并提供就業機會等方面所作的貢獻。
西藏流亡政府首席部長桑東仁波切代表內閣發言時，對達賴喇嘛傳記新書籍的問世，以及向新任甘丹赤仁波切表達了恭賀，并贊揚諾布林卡西藏文化保護中心至今擔負起文化傳承使命，努力宣揚西藏傳統文化。
桑東任波切表示，諾布林卡西藏文化保護中心在流亡社區成為標榜文化基地，不僅自己負責寫作和出版，同時讓很多藏人自力更生。桑東任波切還贊揚該中心為撰寫達賴喇嘛的傳記所付出的努力，以及出大資培養傑出人才的精神，并鼓勵大家繼續再接再厲。
西藏人民議會副議長嘉日卓瑪代表議會發言時強調，在中共變本加厲地污蔑達賴喇嘛，否定達賴喇嘛為世界和平所作的貢獻之際，詳細記載達賴喇嘛的政教業績不僅是藏人，同時也是世人的需要。她說，達賴喇嘛自始至終為世界人類的福祉利益和宗教間的和諧，以及為西藏問題通過中間道理得以解決作出了世人肯定的傑出貢獻，因此我們每個人要永記在心，并延續尊者的步伐繼續為世人造福，發揚西藏傳統美德。
這部全套六冊的傳記書籍《十四世達賴喇嘛政教業績》是記載第十四達賴喇嘛丹增嘉措自1935年誕生到1960年的政教業績。該書是從1984年開始撰寫，目前正在展開自1960年至今的後續業績撰寫工作。
另據外媒消息，上周六（24日），印度總理曼莫漢·辛格和中國總理溫家寶在泰國華欣出席東盟與中日韓領導人會議時舉行了會談。曼莫漢在會後向媒體表示，他當時向溫家寶解釋，達賴喇嘛是印度的貴賓，達賴喇嘛是宗教領袖。
印度媒體昨天報道說，中國駐印度使館要求印度外交部阻止達賴喇嘛訪問阿魯納恰爾邦。但是，辛格則告訴記者，他不清楚達賴喇嘛的訪問安排。有媒體認為，曼莫漢是暗示中共，他不會阻止達賴喇嘛下月訪問邊界爭議區阿魯納恰爾邦。

達蘭薩拉藏人絕食抗議中共槍決藏人
達蘭薩拉藏人絕食抗議中共槍決藏人
【挪威西藏之聲10月26日報導】中共當局於本月20日槍決4名參與去年西藏抗議活動的藏人後，遭到了境外流亡藏人和國際社會的譴責。達蘭薩拉流亡藏人昨天（25日）舉行絕食活動，強烈抗議中共當局屠殺示威藏人。
由達蘭薩拉地方西藏青年會組織，約40名流亡藏人從當地時間早上6點到晚上6點間，舉行絕食活動，強烈抗議中共屠殺藏人。此外，從下午1點到4點半間，當地藏人通過點燃酥油燈，舉行法會，為被槍決的4名示威藏人進行了祈禱。
活動主辦單位昨天還向民眾和外國游客征集簽名，并指出，他們將把所征集到簽名信，呈交給即將訪問中國的美國總統、聯合國人權理事會和歐盟，呼吁公開譴責中國政府這次秘密對藏人執行死刑的問題，并敦促中共無條件釋放仍然被關押的所有西藏政治犯。
結束絕食和法會活動後，達蘭薩拉流亡藏人在晚間還舉行了燭光游行活動。西藏人權與民主促進中心助理負責人江白穆朗在集會上向民眾發言時，高度贊揚了達蘭薩拉藏人為境內藏人舉行的營救活動。他說，為西藏民族的利益而犧牲的境內藏人，點燃酥油燈，舉行祈福法會時，他們的家屬會感到安慰。
他表示，從這次4名藏人被槍決事件再次說明，近來中共通過制訂人權行動計劃，聲稱慎重執行死刑、改善人權等承諾都是欺騙世人的謊言，并強調被處死的4人當中叫彭吉的示威者很可能是從原來的死緩，直接被處死，要是如此，那更是無法無天的行徑。
江白穆朗還表示，這次中共政府對4名藏人的槍決是在極為秘密當中進行，連中共官員當中知道這件事情的人也是極為少數，這說明盡管他們宣稱西藏人民過得很幸福，但是因為境內藏人的勇氣，中國政府非常恐懼西藏的局勢。他還說，盡管中國政府一貫聲稱不允許外國干涉中國內政，但是中共還是有疑慮，不敢向國際社會公布屠殺藏人的事件。
參加絕食抗議的一名僧人在接受本台采訪時表示，他記得小時候，中共當局在他的家鄉西藏阿壩地區經常把藏人游街示眾，然後進行槍決，因此，他的思想從小被中共的殺人本性所麻木，這次聽到藏人被槍決的消息時，只覺得遺憾，而并不感到驚訝。
另一名西藏婦女則表示，她個人也是一名前政治犯，這次聽到藏人被殺事件後，感到很難過，但是回想起自己曾在中共監獄中遭受過非人虐待的經歷時，又覺得與長年累月遭受折磨虐待相比，早點被槍決也許算是件好事。
另一名叫丹增貢色的年輕藏人表示，藏人本來人口很少，深深熱愛本民族的愛國者被這樣屠殺，心裡感到很難過。
她還說，當今中國在國際上是一個急速發展的大國，但是出現這樣的屠殺事件，而沒有人權可言時，覺得這不能算什麼發展，他們應該感到恥辱。
另據大紀元報道，在加拿大，流亡藏人和支持西藏人士，昨天星期天下午，手持被屠殺藏人的照片，聚集在多倫多中共領事館前，強烈抗議中共屠殺西藏示威者。他們還念誦經文為被槍決的藏人進行祈禱。
加拿大自由西藏學生組織全國負責人丹增旺崗（Tenzin Wangkhang）說：“我們敦促加拿大外長立即以最強有力的言辭，譴責這一踐踏正義的事件，我們也呼吁中國政府，不要通過處決任何西藏人來強加人們的憤怒。”
另據媒體報道，近期對西藏進行訪問的英國國會議員伊凡·劉易斯（ivaan lewis）也譴責中國政府槍決西藏示威者，并要求中共對其他被捕的示威藏人進行審判時要謹慎對待，不要輕易判處死刑。

Tibetan Youth Congress marks 40th founding anniversary
Tibetan Youth Congress marks 40th founding anniversary
Phayul [Thursday, October 08, 2009 19:35]

Dharamsala, Oct 8: Pro-independence Tibetan Youth Congress on Wednesday marked its 40th founding anniversary by reaffirming its goal of restoring Tibet’s lost independence.
Tibetan Youth Congress marks 40th Founding Anniversary
Members of Tibetan Youth Congress and hundreds of supporters gathered at the Tibetan Institute of Performing Arts (TIPA) compound to observe an elaborate ceremonial event that began with Tibetan national anthem and a minute-long silence observed in memory of Tibetan martyrs.
“We are gathered here today to mark the 40th founding anniversary of the Tibetan Youth Congress since it was first formed on 7 October, 1970, with the sole objective of restoring Tibet’s lost independence from the repressive Chinese communist rule,” said Mr Tsewang Rigzin, President of the TYC, in his opening statement.
Describing Tibetan Youth Congress as the largest non-governmental organization in the exile Tibetan community, Tsewang said the organization remained more determined than ever to achieve its founding goal of freeing Tibet from Chinese rule and pledged to carry out series of relevant social, educational and political activities to further its goals.
Reading from a prepared text statement in Tibetan, Tsewang also appealed both members and general Tibetan populace, both in and outside Tibet, to render unyielding support to the organisation and stand united in the Tibetan freedom struggle.
The organization, while respecting the Dalai Lama’s leadership role in the Tibetan freedom struggle, does not, however, approve the “middle-way approach” seeking “real and meaningful autonomy” for Tibet as advocated by the exiled Tibetan Leader and the Tibetan Government-in-Exile based in Dharamsala in resolving the Tibet issue.
Deputy Speaker of the Tibetan Parliament in exile Dolma Gyari was the chief guest of the anniversary function.
Dolma said Tibetans must draw inspiration from the Indian freedom movement to put a common front to overcome the challenges faced by the Tibetan freedom movement.
“Whether we follow the middle-way approach or seek complete independence to resolve the issue of Tibet, we must not miss the fact that Chinese communist government is the real and common enemy we are facing,” said Dolma. "In a situation like this, we must not allow our ideological conflict come in the way of our freedom struggle. If we remain preoccupied with our ideological stance and create conflict within ourselves it will only contribute division in the Tibetan community and not towards our freedom struggle," she added.
Urging Tibetans to maintain a strong sense of unity, Dolma went on to insist various Tibetan NGOs in exile, particularly TYC, to find a way and make efforts to connect Tibetans in and outside of Tibet, which she said would benefit greatly to the Tibetan freedom struggle in the long run.
“Indomitable spirit of Tibetans inside Tibet is the strength of the Tibetan resistance against Chinese rule and we in the exile community must work to keep that spirit alive,” she said.
During the function, the outgoing and the new executive member of the Regional TYC of Dharamsala were felicitated with Tibetan ceremonial scarves (Khata).
The Tibetan Youth Congress, which claims some 35,000 registered members under its 85 regional chapters in 12 countries around the world, has organized some of the most dramatic “Free Tibet” protests over the years, often targeting Chinese embassies and consulates in different parts of the world.
Irked by the organisation’s regular protest campaigns around the world, China has lately, especially after the massive 2008 unrest in Tibet, tried to denounce the Tibetan pro-independence group by condemning it as a "violent terrorist" outfits and equating them with Al-Qaeda.
The youth organisation refutes the allegations as being baseless and unfounded, and discards it as being part of regular Chinese propaganda.
Tibet was forcefully occupied by China after Communist Chinese troops marched into Tibet in late 1949.
Tibetan spiritual and political leader, the Dalai Lama fled Tibet in 1959 amidst a mass Tibetan uprising on 10 March in Lhasa against Communist China's continuing presence in Tibet.

中共在西藏拉薩附近處決四名藏人
國際西藏郵報2009年10月22日達蘭薩拉報導』根據九．十．三，位於印度達蘭薩拉的西藏前政治犯運動組織報導，週二上午11時，在西藏首府拉薩附近的托龍(Toelung)縣，四名藏人遭到處決。
洛桑堅贊(Lobsang Gyaltsen)，拉薩盧普(Lhubuk)人；一名叫潘吉(Penkyi)的女子；一名叫洛亞(Loyak)的男子，來自塔次(Taktse)縣；另一名囚犯為無名氏，據說因參與去年西藏首府拉薩的抗議活動，而遭判死刑。
據中國官方媒體報導，拉薩市中級人民法院於今年4月3日，遭指控於3月14日在拉薩，因縱火焚燒店鋪，導致 7人死亡，而判處5名囚犯不同的徒刑。洛桑堅贊(Lobsang Gyaltsen)和洛亞(Loyak)被判處死刑，丹增平措(Tenzin Phuntsok)和甘竹(Kangtsuk)判處死緩，達瓦桑波(Dawa Sangpo)無期徒刑。
4月21日，該法院又多判處了三名藏人徒刑，在拉薩，因涉嫌縱火，並導致6人死亡。 尼木縣的潘吉(Penkyi)遭判死緩；薩迦縣的潘吉(Penkyi)遭判無期徒刑；南林縣的清美(Chime)，10年有期徒刑。
從執刑名單看來，潘吉(Penkyi)，以及那名無名氏男子，雖然遭判死緩，但卻被處以死刑。
中共官媒並未提供在何處執行死刑的報告。
一位匿名人士說，洛桑堅贊(Lobsang Gyaltsen)的屍體，在今日交還給他的家屬；但是，他們因為無法負擔葬禮費用，下午1時許，他的妻子把他的屍體扔進了祈楚(Kyichu)河裡。
九．十．三表示，中共當局加強保安，並在拉薩展開大規模逮捕行動，恐引發公眾的強烈反應。
西藏自由學生組織、印藏友好會，以及西藏國家民主黨，連同九．十．三，今晚6時許，在達蘭薩拉麥羅甘吉舉行燭光晚會，對於遭執行死刑的藏人表示哀悼，並抗議中共的秘密處決行為，喪盡人性。

21 Tibetans detained for protest outside Chinese Embassy
[New Delhi: October 1, 2009]
21 Tibetan Youth Congress activists were arrested for protesting at the Chinese Embassy in New Delhi. The protesters wearing black head bands and carrying Tibetan national flags attempted to scale the walls of the Chinese Embassy to protest against China’s illegal occupation of Tibet and the deteriorating human rights conditions inside Tibet.
TYC condemned the celebration of 60 years of Communist rule recognizing the spectacle as a celebration of 60 years of violence, lies and oppression committed against the people of Tibet. Describing the national celebration inside China as a propaganda tool to boost and glorify the degenerating image of the Communist Party of China, TYC appealed to the world to not allow China’s economic and military might to trump human rights and international law.
The protest started at 9:30am to coincide with the "National day parade" taking place in Beijing to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Communist rule. The forceful protest near the Chinese Embassy lasted for about 20 minute before a large number of police arrived at the protest site and forcefully arrested them. The protesters called for China to "quit Tibet" and raised slogans like "Down with Chinese rule.""China makes progress by committing atrocities on an innocent people," one demonstrator said. "Millions of Tibetans are suffering in Tibet under the Chinese."
All 20 male and 1 female activists have been detained at the Chanakyapuri Police Station. They have been registered under CRPC107/151. After the detention of the protesters, TYC Vice-president met with the ACP of the Chanakyapuri Police Station and DCP of the Parliament Street Police Station to check on the conditions of the protesters and the cases they were being registered under. Among the 21 members today were members of RTYC Dharamshala, Dalahousie, Poanta Sahib, Herbertpur, Dekyiling and Rajpur.
In New Delhi, TYC Vice-president also submitted memorandums to the Prime Minister of India’s office, the United Nation’s Secretary General through UN Information Centre and to the Chinese Government through the Chinese Embassy.
A joint protest was also held at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi by Tibetans and Tibet supporters including Bharat Tibet Sahyog Manch. TYC Information Secretary Tsultrim Dorjee addressed the protesters and read the TYC press statement. In Dharamshala, TYC Centrex President addressed the protesters gathered in Dharamshala at a joint protest organized by RTYC Dharamshala with other organizations.
All the 21 protestors were released in the evening today, and a felicitation for the protestors release was held at a public reception in Majni-ka-tilla, Tibetan Camp. More than 200 Tibetans gathered for the public reception in Majnu ka tilla and regional associations offered scarfs to all the activists. TYC Centrex Vice President Mr. Dhondup Dorjee addressed the gathering about the significance and purpose of the campaign. He stated, "China’s 60th anniversary celebration of the founding of People’s Republic of China, is a celebration for the Communist party and not for the common people of China."
