Take action today to demand that Volker Türk break his silence on China’s genocidal system of residential schools in Tibet. share.nwmd.social/s/inG7bjQJ

I am heartbroken by the death of Tibetan activist Lobga Rangzen outside the United Nations. No one should feel that such a desperate act is the only way to make the world listen. New York stands for the dignity and human rights of all people. We mourn this tragic loss and extend our deepest condolences to his loved ones and the Tibetan community across our City.

China: @volker_turk concerned by ‘Ethnic Unity Law’ adopted by National People's Congress. This risks entrenching assimilationist policies in statute, restricting minority-language education, & limiting free practice of religion & culture. Its provisions could overly restrict freedoms of expression, belief & assembly & penalize peaceful exercise of minority rights generally. International human rights law requires States to protect identities of ethnic, linguistic & religious minorities.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama Receives Grammy Recognition Highlighting Universal Responsibility and Compassion Grammy Award Best Audiobook Narration - Meditations: The Reflections of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. I receive this recognition with gratitude and humility. I don’t see it as something personal, but as a recognition of our shared universal responsibility. I truly believe that peace, compassion, care for our environment, and an understanding of the oneness of humanity are essential for the collective well-being of all eight billion human beings. I’m grateful that this Grammy recognition can help spread these messages more widely.

There was an impassioned and unusually unified debate in the House of Commons yesterday following publication of unredacted plans for the proposed Chinese embassy at Royal Mint Court, revealing secret rooms and proximity to vital security infrastructure. MPs from all parties repeatedly stressed that this is a political and national security question — not merely a planning matter. 1/8

His Holiness arrirmed the continuation of the institution of Dalai lama n reiterated that the Gaden Phodrang Trust has the sole authority to recognize the future reincarnation, no one else has any such authority to interfere in this matter. #DalaiLama

Statement Affirming the Continuation of the Institution of Dalai Lama (Translated from the original Tibetan) On 24 September 2011, at a meeting of the heads of Tibetan spiritual traditions, I made a statement to fellow Tibetans in and outside Tibet, followers of Tibetan Buddhism, and those who have a connection with Tibet and Tibetans, regarding whether the institution of the Dalai Lama should continue. I stated, “As far back as 1969, I made clear that concerned people should decide whether the Dalai Lama’s reincarnations should continue in the future.” I also said, “When I am about ninety I will consult the high Lamas of the Tibetan Buddhist traditions, the Tibetan public, and other concerned people who follow Tibetan Buddhism, to re-evaluate whether or not the institution of the Dalai Lama should continue.” Although I have had no public discussions on this issue, over the last 14 years leaders of Tibet’s spiritual traditions, members of the Tibetan Parliament in Exile, participants in a Special General Body Meeting, members of the Central Tibetan Administration, NGOs, Buddhists from the Himalayan region, Mongolia, Buddhist republics of the Russian Federation and Buddhists in Asia including mainland China, have written to me with reasons, earnestly requesting that the institution of the Dalai Lama continue. In particular, I have received messages through various channels from Tibetans in Tibet making the same appeal. In accordance with all these requests, I am affirming that the institution of the Dalai Lama will continue. The process by which a future Dalai Lama is to be recognized has been clearly established in the 24 September 2011 statement which states that responsibility for doing so will rest exclusively with members of the Gaden Phodrang Trust, the Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. They should consult the various heads of the Tibetan Buddhist traditions and the reliable oath-bound Dharma Protectors who are linked inseparably to the lineage of the Dalai Lamas. They should accordingly carry out the procedures of search and recognition in accordance with past tradition. I hereby reiterate that the Gaden Phodrang Trust has sole authority to recognize the future reincarnation; no one else has any such authority to interfere in this matter.

Despite several days of continuous rainfall in Himachal, India keeping temperatures moderate throughout the state, farmers are expressing concerns about crop damage. A local farmer says "these conditions aren't normal. unusual weather has caused significant damage to our crops."

We call for an independent investigation into the suspicious death and secret cremation of Tulku Hungkar Dorje in Vietnam. His case highlights rampant transnational repression by China, with Vietnam’s complicity. #JusticeForTulkuHungkarDorje
