'There is not a single aspect of the eighty-four thousand sections of the Buddha's teachings which is not contained in Avalokiteshvara's six syllable mantra 'Om Mani Padme Hum', and as such the qualities of the 'mani' are praised again and again in the Sutras and Tantras.... Whether happy or sad, if we take the 'mani' as our refuge, Chenrezig will never forsake us, spontaneous devotion will arise in our minds and the Great Vehicle will effortlessly be realized.'

With ruthlessness
With aggressiveness
Chinese Imperialistic Hegemony
His Homeland steals
His Holiness the Dalai Lama
A homeless man for the homeless feels
Free Tibet a slogan on the face of
The oppressors he deals
Will not bow his head will not kneel
He touches Mankind as he heals
Om mani padme hun
His own wounds that of the Tibetan Nation
Hidden among Chakras within Chakras
Chakras pacifying Prayer Wheels
Love poetry Hate racism
