MORE ESSENTIAL READING FROM JAMYANG NORBU

Many of the readers of this blog regularly visit Jamyang Norbu's blog, Shadow Tibet, and will aready know that Jamyang la has recently posted an essay on the November meeting in Dharamsala.  If you haven't already read  "Making the November Meeting Work," please stop by and have a look at it.  It's always a pleasure to agree with Jamyang la--paraphrasing TS Eliot on Samuel Johnson:  Jamyang la is a dangerous man to disagree with--and in this recent piece, he makes many of the same points I've made in this blog concerning the importance of the upcoming meeting.  Of course, Jamyang la makes his case with far greater knowledge and authority than I am able to do, so many thanks to him for his sharp insights into the Tibetan political process.  As Americans, looking from the outside in, we stand to learn a great deal from columns like these.  Again, many thanks to Jamyang la for his time and effort in writing this piece.

Also, you will learn a great deal as well from the comments added by Jamyang la's readers . . . they are a diverse and opinionated group, so leave time for them too.
