| Aya, Mermaid, reading your words I wonder which one of us really is condescending? So now you are responsible for a nation of people? You already told them how you think they should be happy.....but I did not know that you carry the responsibility for them. That sounds like you believe they can? help themselves and that they need your great ideas. I guess with the point of belief, you share the same opinion of a famous man who once said: Religion is poison! your friend |

| i would never go to their temple. i am a christian. |

| and i read online that if you can take their pictures by giving them little gifts. Or how u can take photos without their knowing. I am fed up. I think we should respect them from the bottom of our heart not by such tricks. I have been to Li Tang, eastern tibet, the cradle of Tibetan culture. |

| Jesus, Mermaid, how can you be so narrowminded? And why do you generalize everything? For my part, I can say I met some of the friendliest people in Tibet and of course I asked them before taking any pictures. Some even encouraged me to take photos, even if it was not my intention. I was also invited to participate in some of their religious practice during a visit to a monastery. So where is my lack of respect????? By the way, I? not a buddhist, but still I can share the ideas and belief of other cultures without giving up my own belief. Don? get to radical in your belief. There are also christian extremists..... your friend |

| well, ur msg is reassuring. I met some tibetan kids on my way to Litang. They saw our car and ran to us to say hi. They were so lovely. I said the above because i am narrowminded as u might guess, i said so because i could not forget their smiling faces long after my return. |

| though i will not go to the monasteries, i want to go to where 6th Dalai Lama met his gf. U know anything about him? |

| Dear Mermaid, I? honored to be allowed to talk to you, my majesty..... ........I did not realize I? talking to a royal person:-) I actually meant the singular as "your" friend. But you speak of yourself in plural, "our" friend. Anyway, you said the 6th Dalai Lama met his gf (girlfriend???) somewhere? Cool, I was not familiar with that. Tell me the story about that. I hope you have a boyfriend, too, even before marriage if you are not too strict in your christian belief:-) still your friend |

| oh, now I got it what you meant with "ur"... forget about my majesty talk! Your last mails are very reasonable to me. You changed your mind about Tibet? |
