In the September of 1949, a radio broadcast was sent out saying that Tibet was a part of China and that anyone who disagreed would “Crack his skull against the mailed fist of the PLA [People’s Liberation Army]” This marked the beginning of a shift in the history of both Tibet and China, where China successfully takes control of Tibet which has lasted until present day.

The Dalai Lama believes that people can be good outside of religion. He discusses a…

A wise man once said “Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” That wise mans name is the Dali Lama. Talking about happiness is the Dalai Lama’s speciality, but in his travels he begun to notice that a lot of people are actually suffering on the inside. He believes that there are many factors that can be held accountable for this action. The first factor that can cause someone to suffer that people probably don't think of is money. In my opinion money can not buy…
The Dalai Lama is a renounced political and spiritual leader for Tibet and for Buddhism. The current Dalai Lama is the 14th Dalai Lama to exist. He was born, Lhamo Dhondup on July 6, 1935.

In “The Ethics of Compassion”, The Dalai Lama explains how we should strive for fulfillment of having compassion towards everyone and not just the people closest to us. The Dalai Lama himself has not accomplished such a task, “Most people, including myself, must struggle even to reach the point where putting others’ interests on a par with our own becomes easy” (Dalai Lama).

In the 21st century, it is evident that sexual innuendos do not have a place in religion and that fact was no different in the 14th century. The Wife of Bath is the enigma of every century when it comes to religion and sexuality, especially the one in which she exists. She manages to maintain both religious and sexual personas. The Wife of Bath’s Prologue includes both religious and sexual elements even though they are in direct conflict with each other. It also utilizes both religious quotes…
